Good Thursday morning 🙂
(Pre apologies for the likely relative incoherence of this blog post)
This is a very literal mental miscellany, so I guess I’ll attempt to organize my thoughts in a sort of numerical order..
(Course Chronicles are still in progress! Expect another one – probably going over Phys 157, by the end of this weekend)
1. Somebody on my floor is probably making toast, and the smoke alarm has gone off (they’re probably making toast or something – FUN FACT: toaster ovens are allowed in first year res!). It seems as though (at least in the new Totem buildings) that our smoke alarms are extremely sensitive. In the building across from mine, their actual fire alarm for the entire building has gone off countless times (luckily, there have been no actual fires)
2. I’ve forgotten how foggy it can get in the winter. The last two days have been incredibly foggy (it’s so thick that it’s almost difficult to see). I love it.
3. On the UBC used books group (or something like that), I noticed that somebody was selling Cloud Atlas because it was required reading for an ENG 110 class (which I believe is intro to literature). That’s a tough book to read (I never had a chance to finish it, but it was incredible.. I’ll have to actually read it).
4. School has already become relatively insane, in terms of stuff to do. Well, not that bad. It’s just a lot of readings and introductory assignments. It’s nice starting class later, but I feel as though I’m being lulled into a false sense of security because there aren’t any labs or tutorials in the first week of school.
Well, that’s all for now folks.
(Props to Parks and Rec fans who recognized this creepy Orin reference – If you don’t watch Parks and Rec, I highly suggest that you do because you won’t be disappointed)
I hope everyone is doing well and surviving school 🙂
