On A Lighter Note

Sorry last time's post was so glum. Lucky for me, the past few days have offered some excitement! Let's start with Studies in British Poetry on Monday. Let me set the scene. Here we are, 10 am, in our ridiculously hot classroom going over some Percy Bysshe Shelley (Bysshe please). Suddenly, the door bangs open and standing in the doorway is this guy. Average height, average weight, college age. He points to our professor and shouts at the top of his lungs "you all better pay attention to that M*****F*****" and then slams the door behind him. Silence. Do any of you know him? No. Is he one of your students? No. Ok then. We will just be locking that door now. Apparently we were not the only targets. According to campus security, he also visited a psychology class and, upon entering the coffee shop in the Memorial Union, cleared his throat quite loudly so everyone would look at him, flipped them all the bird with both hands, and disappeared. Stay classy OSU. Stay classy.

Also on Monday, they announced who would be headlining Dam Jam this year (Dam Jam is a "free" concert for students in the MU quad every spring). Lucky for us, they got someone good this year. B.o.B will be headlining Dam Jam! Now, why the air quotes you ask? Dam Jam has been free for students for years and years. This year, it costs a whopping $5 which, in my opinion, is a pretty damn good deal to see B.o.B in concert plus whoever is opening for him. However, I seem to stand alone. There is quite the uproar over this outlandish price tag. Also inciting uproar this week? Protests in the MU quad disrupting midterms, the fact the OSU only pays its student workers once a month, and there were sheep in the quad courtesy of the OSU sheep club. Yes. They are a real club. They have fancy jackets and everything. Also a real club? The OSU polo team. They have a wooden horse for demonstrations. Anyone feel like climbing inside and storming a city?

Onwards to Tuesday! I went to the dentist. Cavity free for 20 years my friends! Nathan and I also hosted a Cinco de Mayo party if you consider his roommate and two of our friends a party. We had tacos if you consider tortillas with holes in the middle part of a taco. Do not ask how they got holes in the middle because I cannot say. They were whole when I left the room and when they came to the table, there were holes in the middle. Boys.

Here's to hoping for more exciting days!

Until next time,
