Blackbelt in Keeping it Real

All that needs to be said about the trip to the mitten, is that it was interesting. Nice, break, good to see people.

It's what I came back to that warrants explanation...

My apartment was fine, no blown out windows, no tree on my car, and no flooded bedroom. I was happy about that, and I even had power when I came back, which was an extra plus. After a week (yes, a whole week) off of school, I knew there would be some sort of catch to the leisure time I was able to have.

Not only do I have extended classes all week, but I have a saturday morning 8 a.m., and classes the week after thanksgiving. Which give me less time in between my exams, and the time that classes end so I can start cramming. Killer huh. 8 a.m. on a Saturday? That's going to be the most exhilerating experience of my life, not to mention that it's with the glorious book tape of a Dean I posted about earlier. School basically just keeps getting better....

On another note, try this mental picture out. Traffic at 5 o'clock in Miami, kids dressed up for Halloween, and closed roads for trick-or-treaters. Add it up, and that equals a 40 minute drive home for me from campus...which is about 2 miles away. Imagine how slow cars moved for that one. Needless to say, I was able to use my horn a lot. Oh, and I forgot the part about some of the traffic lights not working yet. I didn't want to think about leaving my apartment when I finally got back.

Anyway, I thought I would take a short break and let anyone who's interested know that everything is still standing here, except for a lot of trees and some stop signs, and I guess power lines too, but my apartment was just as I left it, which I suppose is all I can really ask of mother nature.

This is what I learned today in my torts class... "most does not mean majority..." -My prof. (no joke)


Oh, and I had a good dinner last night...glorious:)


Sean Connery: Ah! Well met! I'll take Months That Start With Feb, Trebek.

Alex Trebek: For how much?

Sean Connery: Suprise me, you filthy bastard!

Alex Trebek: Okay, that's completely unnecessary. Months That Start With Feb for $800. This is the only month that starts with Feb.

[ Sean Connery buzzes in ]

Alex Trebek: Mr. Connery?

Sean Connery: Febtober!

HAHAHA, I'm dyin. Febtober. And dude, Torts is awesome, no matter what. Now when someone punches you in the face and steals your money, you won't be mad. You'll just calmly sit down and begin typing out the answer to "Under the facts given, what torts were committed and how would they be decided in a common law jurisdiction?"
