You probably noticed the hordes of alums walking around campus last weekend, children in tow or reuniting with their old cohorts. Maybe you felt annoyed (they graduated from Richmond, you'd think they'd know how to work the toaster in D-Hall), maybe you noticed all that picturesque family bonding around the lake or maybe you were just jealous of the party that was raging in the tent in the Forum last Saturday -- I'm just wondering what era-specific music they're going to play at my reunion. "Disturbia"?
Four (Really Trivial) Things This School Needs:
I've finally been outted by an online comment (don't we just love www.thecollegianur.com?) - I'm not really from Compton. My name just "grants me access to a pun," and to be honest, I didn't actually know who N.W.A. was. But whatever, we'll just call it irony that I actually come from the Midwest. I mean, St. Louis (my real hometown) is up there in standing, as far as rap music goes (until he semi-fell off the face of the earth, who didn't love Nelly? And J-Kwon and Chingy were clearly so legit). But I digress.
Spring break is approaching more quickly than I think I can handle, given that before flying back to St. Louis next Friday I have to write three German essays, an English paper and a Core paper (although I have to say Chikothello is clearly a fabulous topic). Needless to say, I've been busy, but what gets the brain going more than a gargantuan latte is a little mind-cleansing perusing of Facebook.
What was last Friday? It was "the night the lodge went wrong." For some, the complications of a lodge being shut down ruined the night, but I had ended up experiencing the joy of random fun. Plus, being removed from the actual lodge while in the midst of a lodge mindset and atmosphere allowed for some (deep and meaningful) reflection about our campus' obsession with lodge parties.
As I thought about things I wanted to write about this week, I was struck by how most "opinions" people (including myself, not going to lie) tend to revolve around complaining about something. Granted, opinions usually address an issue someone has with something and can be a legitimate mode of instigating change, but I've recently been struck by the bad effect complaining can have on the mood of everyone around you.
Top 10 Themes the Lodges SHOULD have, because who doesn't enjoy a good themed party?
It still seems weird to me that a semester has already gone by since coming to Richmond, but the beginning to my second semester is starting off even more quickly than the first. I can't say I missed having a week of Orientation before starting class, but what happened to that so-called breeze of a "syllabus week?" I've already read three and a half books since coming back, which is more than I can say for the five weeks I spent at home.
