Day 270: Neighborhoods

September 27th, 2011As I descended upon the Arriba shuttle to go to school, I quickly put headphones in my head to block any direct contact with the outside world. The music being played before me was none other than Blink 182’s new album :Neighborhood”, which is a nicer, more mature version of their previous work. When I saw Kunal though, I knew I was stuck and had to talk to him for the whole bus ride there about life, Tofu House, and Ron Paul of course. I got off the shuttle, and rushed on over to the Communication building to check out my hard-drive for the quarter (as well as reserve a room for editing tomorrow). I proceeded to Vietnamese afterwards where the professor spoke in ChingChongLingLongTingTong the entire time, making us sing some weird proposal song at the end of class. I met up with Geetha for lunch at none other than the epic Farmer’s market. We had some lemongrass chicken and I exposed her for the first time to the expensive food that gave us both food comas. We split up as she went to Geisel and I proceeded to work, where I scanned some folders for my boss.

When all was said and done, I met up with Geetha and Rashika at Geisel before they both ultimately left for class. I spent three hours preparing for next week’s COMT100 presentation, which I must say I’m pretty proud of accomplishing. I went to the International Center immediately afterward for some delicious dinner – in the form of Regents Pizza, where I snapped a picture. I talked to a nice autistic person and we debated politics for awhile, as the International center quickly played the album “Neighborhoods” in the background for all of us [as part of a listening party]. On the way home, I listened to the album yet again, before watching Glee with Henry, Sheng, and Michelle. The night ended with some relaxation upon realizing more work is yet to come tomorrow in the form of video editing.
