Wednesdays are the Worst...

Alright, so Wednesdays are pretty awful. SEVEN consecutive hours of class starting at 10am and ending at 5pm...this is going to be undoubtedly my least favorite day of the week. Especially because I have a grand total of THREE classes...two comms and one history. I'm slowly coming to the realization (actually, not slowly, rather quickly) that I like Comm SO much more than I like 3-hour history seminars. While the seminar is somewhat interesting, after four pretty amazing hours editing and creating motion graphics, it doesn't do much for me. Also, I'm pretty tired by the time I get to the class (2pm until 5).

On a somewhat different yet still sort of related note: a breakfast bar is not enough of a lunch to keep one chugging along through the second half of the day.

Moving On:
Labor Day weekend is coming up. Now, for most students, this is a time for beaching it up etc, but I am staying on campus and enjoying myself in the calm and quiet surroundings of Student Stores on Game Day. Oh Game Day! A day for everyone who proudly bleeds Carolina Blue to rise together and sing songs of spirit and unity while the Citadel hands us our ass on one of the "hand painted" ceramic plates that we sell at Student Stores. As Tiny Tim would say, God bless us, everyone.

But really, there is a sort of spirit on football game days that is somewhat infectious. Perhaps it is the marching band that sets up right outside the store and begins warming up the entire brass section at 8am, or maybe it is the ridiculous amount of money people spend when they visit the store...I had one lady who no joke spent over $700 in one fell swoop, but whatever it is, there is definitely a semi-consuming excitement that sweeps over the campus. I do like football days. And while I have not been to a single game since the UNC-Duke Game in '07, I like to think that by helping people locate not-quite-hypoallergetic face tattoos, I am right there in the stands screaming until I can't talk with all the other football/ UNC enthusiests.

So, Good luck this weekend, boys! Go Heels!!!

PS-If you would like to visit me this Saturday, I will be at Student Stores from 12:45 until 4:45.
