Saturday, May 29, 2004I was going to UW to visit some friends (Carly, Laura you're awesome. Clancy you're a stinker for not calling me but I forgive you) Anyways I got off the bus, asked someone where Hagget dorm is and found out I was on the wrong side of campus. Someone suggested I take another bus across campus, but having become used to living in Claremont my gut reaction was instantly to think "Campus isn't THAT big" and "aviod taking the bus at all cost." Now this would be an entirely reasonable line of reasoning in Claremont, but it is a little absurd in WA, as Seattle buses are really good and UW really is that big. Not only that I forgot to take into account a major difference between WA and CA: Rain. It was pouring at UW Thursday, torrential downpour, epic "time to build a boat" style. My coat soaked through, my pants were wet, my backpack (with change of clothing) was wet, the map of campus I had got wet and dissolved. I passed a duck while I was walking and even the duck gave me a look like "enough of this friggin rain. I'm sick of getting wet and I'm a DUCK." Eventually I do make my way to Carly's dorm and get inside. And then some guy bumped into me and didn't apologize so I stabbed him. Yeah. Stabbed him, right in the gut. Yeah..: posted by Topper 4:56 PM
