What a long day...It's only 5 O'Clock and I'm already ready for bed. I had an 8:30am class this morning, came straight to work, gave a campus tour, and will be here working until 5:30 this evening. My class, however, was so interesting today that I completely forgot I was tired. In Law, Literature, and History we'll be looking at cases and crime situations within works of writing. As a first attempt, Professor Allison had us analyze the song written by Bob Dylan about "Hurricane" Carter. As a class we brought forth a surprising amount of information left out of both the movie and the song and changed some student's opinions about Carter. I, for one, believe he is innocent. And if he isn't innocent, prosecutor's did a horrible job proving his guilt and therefore deserve to lose this court case. We'll be moving on to a very different time and situation with "Measure for Measure" next week; I only hope it's as interesting as the Carter situation is!
Another highlight of my day was lunch. I'm sure that sounds ridiculous, but seriously, a little place called Viga can work miracles. Viga can be found on Pi Alley (which sounds to me like the name of a magical place in Harry Potter), hidden behind Old City Hall, off of School Street, just a block or two from campus. It is a takeout only establishment that serves fresh and made-to-order foods such as sandwiches, salads, gourmet pizza, and single servings of pasta dinners for an unbelievably cheap price. And, you are offered a free roll with every purchase!
This evening I have little planned. I will write a feature article for Journalism I, prepare a presentation for Advertising, and eat left-overs in front of the television.
My life is more exciting on the weekends, I promise!
