I have no idea what this semester's gonna bring both socially and academically but I'm pretty excited. If things go to plan (which they never do) there's going to be a lot of grade raising and LSAT'ing.
I also thought this hat was pretty darn cool (and practical enough that I might fork over the money for it sometime in the near future...like after I start working again.)
Also found this gem, but it's only available on the European site :/.
If you can't tell by now, I've gone hat crazy.
A Boston hat might actually be chill too...maybe if the Lakers cream the Celtics this year (which, if their first match has anything to say about it, they will), I'll pick up one of these.
And well...I really have nothing to say about this one...Songs I'm listening to:
"Car Doors and Stolen Keys" - The New Frontiers
"Strugglin'" - K'naan
"Something is Wrong With Me" - Cold War Kids (From Fullerton no less!)
And my very very guilty pleasure :[
"Strong Baby" -Seungri (승리)
CRACK CRACK CRACK
Edit:
Oh and on the inauguration? I definitely think that this is a change for the better for the U.S. Couple of things though: 1. The man's amazing. Yes, I know. But he can only do so much. I hope that people's hopes don't get ridiculously high, only to be smashed when he doesn't actually turn out to be Superman. 2. I am hating a lot of the conservative news outlets now spewing their crap about "Racism in America is over!". No. We've elected a black president, this is historic, but it really doesn't make everything else in the States all dandy and fine. This will take a number of things, the three most important of which being: 1. The replacement of the older generation with the multi-culturally educated younger generation 2. Dealing with the social-economic pit holes that afflict so much of the country (yes, race, poverty, and disadvantage do often go together because of strong, and often not very fun to read about, historical reasons) 3. And lots making love (talking about the dissolution of the concept of race in its physical form itself).
Lot of work ahead, we can do it America!
It's actually getting rather warm over here, I know 30 degrees can hardly be considered warm but it is certainly better than the 7's.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to having you back.
P.S. when do you get here? (...so I know when to get the heck out... :)
Eh, I am not so sure about the hat/cap aberration.
ReplyDeleteP.S. It's been really cold in Oxford today- it was barely over 40 for most of the day. :D Depressing as British weather is supposed to be it's a hell of a lot better than any other place I could have expected to be.
