A Snapshot of Time

Written words, a photo, both capture a moment that could only happen once

Livin' at BU



Lake Michigan through some dune grass. This was my favorite picture from the annual trip to the cottage this year. It is the background on my loverly MacBook, Conor almost got beat up this weekend for making fun of my "generic" background. The then appologized profusely.

Life is gettin' back into the swing of things here at Butler. I'm missing my friday classes for a 7 hour bus ride to the far side of Ohio. We have a meet, it's our first overnighter. Yeah! (I think? maybe not really?) My opening to schedule my classes for next semester is Thursday at 12:30, very exciting. I'm looking at Biology (duh), Chemistry (duh again), my freshman humanities colloquium (American Dream/American Nightmare is the one I want, it's kinda of about the American Dream and how it failed in reality, readings include Willa Cather's My Antonis, Toni Morrison't The Bluest Eye, and Time O'Brien's The Things They Carried) and Into to Anthropology, and maybe my PE requirement (like health, swimming takes care of the activity PE requirement). The PE is a maybe because it would put me at 17 credit hours and I'm not sure I want to take that many considering I'm going to be missing a whole week of classes for conference. I have a meeting to talk about it with my advisor before I can schedule classes anyways. I thought I was going to be taking German this semester, but with the Chem and Bio I wanted it wasn't looking like a good possibility. I'm thinking about taking it at IUSB this summer, (this is news to my parents) but I'm not sure how that will play out. I still think I should learn some Spanish but the idea of taking 14 credit hours of a foreign language verses 8 is a hard pill to swallow.

Isabella and I are looking into changing the room around. We'll be unbunking the beds and moving to sides of the room with the fridge and tv under the window. It was my idea but she was cool with it. I want it for a couple of reasons. 1-I'm tired of the bunk bed 2-It's really hot up in the top bunk and Isabella is a warm room person so it can get really hot up there 3- it is a little weird having her desk in front of my closet 4- It will give us both more storage space because we will be able to put stuff under our beds.

So, I guess that is life at BU right now. I've reached the end of my thinking and it's time for me to get my less than 6 hours of sleep before I have to get up to lift.
