College life

I have noticed several things now that I attend college. When people say right before tests, you realize how many people are actually in your class, they weren't lying. My Biogeography lecture easily had an extra 150 people today; the test is on Friday.

I have decided to continue adding really stupid/funny/bizarre quotes from my classes.

Today's winner: "Doesn't Egypt have a lot of oil? It's in the Middle East." - courtesy of GEOG 1372: Geography of Global Cities.

Also, I have three teachers that are absolutely horrific dressers. So, our newest segment on the blog shall be: Examples of Really Bad Style Choices: Edition Kara's Professors. (Everyone else, please feel free to put in your own examples).

Case one: I show up to a class and my professor is standing in the front of the class in an Anime Hawaiian Shirt -- today's selection was a Transformers Hawaiian Shirt -- in fact as far as I know, the man only owns Hawaiian shirts.

Case two: I show up for class and my professor is wearing a map of the world -- t-shirt style. The front had North and South America and the back had the rest of the world. It was a gift from the University of Illinois.

Case three: I show up for class and my professor is wearing a floor length floral print sack dress with a yellow base, and some very clunky and ugly black sandals.

Now, granted, do I show up to class in makeup with any real effort put in every day (or even very often)? No, of course not. In fact, today, I put on a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt and said, "I don't want to think" and wandered off to class.

But, I don't wear Hawaiian shirts of any kind nor do I wear shapeless dresses or map themed clothing. Plus, I have really, really cute sweaters I am just dying to wear.

See, this is what college does to you. Makes you pay attention to ridiculous details (which I paid attention to before, but it's more fun now).

I'm off; enjoy your day!
