Actually, it wasn’t midnight when the lot of us decided to go on a Wawa run for their incredible milkshakes*. (And really, I was just curious about the Wawa supermarket chain after hearing about it from Clara. Doesn’t the name make you think of the Unknown Fifth Teletubby? Or maybe I’m weird.)
So Andrea, Amanda, Isel, [...]
CSEM: Greek Mythology
Course Description: For over two millennia, the myths of the Greeks have provoked outrage
and fascination, interpretation and retelling, censorship and elaboration, beginning with the Greeks themselves. As we explore one of the richest treasure troves of the ancient world, we will see how
some of these stories have been read and understood, recounted and [...]
1. Not being able to peer into the dryer because it’s up too high and definitely not at eye-level. Even when I’m standing on my tip-toes looking incredibly pensive. Therefore unable to determine if I’ve missed anything small.
1. Isel, Winnie, Andrea, Cristina, Brianna, Amanda, Yong Jung, and I invited Lucy and Maggie (SRPs from Tri-Co) to see The Wackness with us at the Bryn Mawr Film Institute. It was like a mini Tri-Co thing. Only not.
It was a pretty good movie, though I nearly choked when I realized that Josh Peck was [...]
So, Friday started with all of us getting the ever lovin’ shit scared out of us by a guy named Dr. Payne (pronounced “pain” and no, I am not making this up) who acts and sounds a lot like Lewis Black only a lot more bitter (a la House). His sole purpose in life is [...]
Goddamn, I love small liberal arts colleges.
Tri-Co ’secret’ tradition of water balloon fight at the Cloisters. (I fell into the fountain by accident and resembled a drowned kitten.)
Friendly Swarthmore Boy (now forever referred to as “Zack” because I fail at utilizing memorable nicknames) is also a House fan which makes me happy. I love that [...]
There were too many moments when I was like “this is amazing and wonderful but all I really want to do is go take a nap” because today’s discussion topics were very sensitive and it being the anniversary of Kevin’s death… Both are touchy topics for me to begin with, but combining them together on [...]
Okay, everyone and their grandmother knows that I lost my cell, right?
(This took place today right after lunch, when almost everyone had arrived back at Dalton 300–where most of the workshops take place.)
Student Resource Persons: *making general announcements* Also, someone lost an LG Chocolate phone, so if anyone finds one please contact one of us.
Random [...]
So, there’s this guy who goes to Swarthmore (not to be confused with Friendly Swarthmore Boy) caught my attention. Not in a romantic sense, but in a “huh, he seems very interesting” sort of way. He’s very cute, blond with blue eyes, dresses well, plays piano, and is very soft-spoken (and he speaks fluent French [...]
Hanging out with future roommate Andrea in Erdman common room.
Andrea and my family had Thai/Japanese lunch together. No room for actual dinner when we returned. But we met Friendly Swarthmore Boy! Also, small world. Friendly Swarthmore Boy went to the same school where my former principal (he got tenure this year) Joe Wilson … er, [...]
