Today was a much better day after a bunch of shitty ones. I got a 100 on my Polisci quiz which is un-freakin-believable since a) I'm pretty sure I got the last question completely wrong and I have no idea why my TA is not calling out on me for it, b) International Politics is probably my weakest subject (or not...maybe Lit Hum...), and c) I don't even remember the last time i got a 100 on ANYTHING. And it was worth 15% of my grade. Man this gives me so much more hope for the next four years I have to spend in this chamber of academic torture.
ALSO, not only was my much-dreaded Uni Writing class called off after 10 minutes today due to my teacher just not having anything to teach us about, we spent the whole of Japanese class destressing after yesterday's midterm by playing a game. Each of us wrote a random funny/scary/embarrassing/interesting experience we've had on a piece of paper, and then three of us would get called out of class at once to discuss which one of our experiences we were going to use. Then all three people would come back in and claim to have had that experience, and would undergo interrogation by everyone in order to expose the two liars (all in Japanese of course). It was awesome because my classmate's experience that I had to pretend was my own was actually that she had encountered the ghost of a moose.......yeah idk either. I sucked because I had no idea where you would find....mooses....meese.....a moose.......I said Canada but then they asked me where and I had to flail really silently and lie that I didn't remember because I had seen it a really long time ago. My other friend Rosie was even bigger fail because she claimed the moose was a miniature one in front of her freshman dorm. But the biggest fail turned out to be my teacher (the adorably entertaining Eguchi-sensei) who claimed he beat up an old lady in the subway because she insulted him and the child he was holding.....=.=" It was pretty fail in general because most of the time the person telling the truth would receive the least amount of votes for authenticity (I ended up being falsely convinced that my friend Jack used to be a soprano and sang at Carnegie Hall, and that my other classmate Ji In got trapped in her dorm elevator for 10 minutes this morning). still, it was loads of fun. (:
oh and the weather was so nice today. ♥ after a week of 4-9 degrees rain, 18 degrees sunshine today was heavenly. i sat in the courtyard behind Butler for the hour that my class was canceled and camwhored on Photo Booth with the gorgeousness of Columbia in fall in the background while hoping nobody would notice.
before i forget, though, this is mostly what i wanted to post about before forgetting - i came across something really entertaining on The Bwog last night (while i was supposed to be doing my essay. i was doing research on what else was good to eat at JJ's Place besides the spicy chicken fingers. so sue me.) In fall 2007 Bwog wrote a story about the spicy chicken fingers (i.e. god's gift to all freshmen) shockingly disappearing from JJ's menu, and here were the comments on the article (read highlighted ones):





hahahaha that made my night. and for those of you who don't have the luxury of getting to eat at JJ's Place at 2 in the morning - yes. the spicy chicken fingers are just. that. good. ;)
