"Whoa, even the antisocial section is full..."
Wahahahahahaha, Pranam, I really hope you read this. Good times in FoCo.

And Not A Single Buck Was Given That Day (3/3/12)
Instead of recalling past events, this time I will give you
a little slice of life instead. That is,
I’m going to ramble in a-bit-longer-than-Twitter-length segments about things
that nobody gives a single ? about.
9:30 — Having gone to sleep to the music and chatter of
E-man and Armenta-san, I just woke up this morning to Medusa, I mean the
strikingly disorganized head of Pranam.
What did I miss last night? Well,
if that’s what happens when you neglect to lock your door, I don’t think I’ll
ever lock it again. [wink wink]

10:00 —This morning
was supposed to be our last BFAB (Breakfast for a Buck) of the winter
term. BFAB is a nice community event in
which the UGAs (Undergraduate Advisors) make breakfast in the dorms. Unfortunately, I had no more bucks left, so I had to resort to FoCo (Food Court, a.k.a. 1953 Commons), which
really wasn’t that bad. Haha. There are lots of abbreviations in the
Dartmouth language, eh? The environment
isn’t too conducive to focusing, especially since I’m situated right across
from the coffee/dessert bar. I’m
leaving!
---
10:30 — Well, that
was awkward. I just walked into Sanborn,
my favorite library to find all of the tables cleared out and my writing
professor standing there. More
awkwardly, I left. And then walked back
in. And waved. And proceeded down the hall to take a
warm-cut to Baker just to realize that the exit was blocked off. And walked by him again. Phew.
---
11:00 — I’m typing
this in the Orzoco Reading Room when I should be typing my essay. Apparently a passage about this showed up on
the SAT. Unfortunately, I didn’t take
the SAT that month. Pranam wants me to
save his special seat in the main hall next to the information desk. Time to relocate… again.
---
11:30 — Pranam’s
seat was taken. Darnit. I’m right to the left of the King Arthur
Flour window, and I guess I’m staying here since I’m too lazy to return to my
original seat. I hope he has enough DBA
(Declining Balance Account) to share something with me! [rubs hands together and
salivates] It is time to Summon, or
search for relevant academic sources for my Macbeth paper on Dartmouth’s
library database.
---
1:00 — I decided to
write my paper about the role of nature/environment/weather in Macbeth. Subject to change. Edit: how the duality of the weather and
other elements of nature reflect the conflict within Macbeth.
---
2:00 — I am sitting
in second-floor Collis. I enjoyed lunch
with Pranam and plan to meet up with Meili later for some King Arthur tea in
Baker this evening, but now I am alone.
I’m really hoping I recorded the time for the History Journal meeting
correctly! At least I finished all my
edits for “Rethinking Samson Occom” at the beginning of the week, but we were
supposed to discuss them today. Maybe I
should check the other rooms to make sure I’m in the right place.
---
4:00 — Step practice
got over a few minutes ago. I’m really
looking forward to the show tomorrow.
Here, let me advertise: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otl92bi5jcU&feature=related_)

5:30 — Ramesh-san
and I are working on our Japanese project.
Our topic is Honda’s ASIMO robot, its history, adaptations, and … mind
control! We already finished the
PowerPoint presentation, but now we have to write a script and memorize our
parts. I’m kind of nervous about the
oral presentation, but I’m also pretty excited to speak a lot of Japanese.
---
6:15 — Thanks for
the blueberry tea, Meili! Meili had such
a great idea switching to the 5-meal plan this winter. I’m more of a snacker, so I could really use
the DBA.
---
7:00 — Baker Berry…
still… Pranam and Meili have left
---
8:30 — YAMETE. I surrender to my writer’s block. I’m leaving for the gym.
