Things have been picking up here. This semester is a little less on the stressful side, but nonetheless, I always find ways to occupy my time.
The show at Kraftbrau was awesome! I want to send thanks out to The Kenner, Jared, Mario, Straight edge Erin, Grimey, Phil, Krista, for being loud and supportive. Words cannot suffice. Also thanks to everyone else for coming out.
I love Kraftbrau! The sound guy is amazing, and the people are cool. Also, kudos to the WIDR kids, because they bought us pizza for before the show, and a keg for after the show. I have never been treated like such royalty.
In other news, I am now officially a consultant at the Writing Center. Kim, unbeknownst to me, took me off the apprentice list. I was shocked last wednesday to hear the words, "Jake, your 3 o'clock is here." Yikes.
A friend at the Writing Center told me about a blind Palestinian kid that had brought in a paper on Multi-culturalism. At one point in the paper, the kid goes off on an anti-semitic rant: "Its funny how everyone thinks that we are terrorists," he says, "when we're not the ones occupying the holy land." Phew! I can't say how I'd respond in that situation.
