So yeah, I don't wanna write essays. For no apparent reason this got me to thinking about a speech given by some celebrity alumni on the first day of frosh week (he was in Ed and now I think it's him in those annoying CIBC commercials), he said look back at what you listened to in first year at the end of university. I can't remember why he said it.I'm not too worried. Only first year won't kill enough time, so I'm gonna do all 4. Albums only. This was also sparked by Karen's contentious albums list. What's the soundtrack to your academic dementia? Post in comments here.
