Again today is foggy, for again I could not update about today until several days past. I woke up early with good intentions on going to Product Knowledge early to help out with the stewarding. For some odd reason I talked myself out of it and spent my breakfast catching up on my blog. PK came around and it was mushroom day! Oh, what a day! I love mushrooms but had know idea there were mushrooms other than button! I'm completely kidding of course....I've had shiitake. The experience of tasting all the different varieties of mushrooms, unknown to me, was fascinating. I never knew the delicacy of oyster mushrooms or the meaty earth of morels.
As I said, in between classes is a blur, but I'd like to think I did something useful. After doing something useful I went to math and let me tell you, sitting in an empty class trying to be a good student is horribly demotivating. Our professor let us out early and I decided I would stay and complete my study guide. It lasted maybe 5 minutes before I took off as well.
Lunch was another experience. Yesterday I saw a girl wearing a shirt very similar to one I have, that I like very much. Today I wore mine. It is a very high in the neck shirt, low in the waist, and not form fitting at all. It does however show off one's shoulders quite well. The dress code is business casual- minus the exposed shoulders. This not being a provocative shirt I thought it would be a safe decision. As it was the first turn over of the new classes the students in the kitchen were instructed to be as strict as possible. I walked in, ready for a burger of CIA expectations and was told that I could not be served. In embarrassment I went back to sit with some friends trying to feign my mind away from what just happened. Lucky a man came over, apologized for overhearing and said the chef apologized and said I could eat. After he and I went back and forth about me actually being hungry I went back to the kitchen, was apologized to yet again, and told that my shirt was an exception. So you never know.
Right before Writing I went down to the mail room and delightfully found a care package waiting for me. I hiked up to my class before opening it and did so with joy. If any parents read this- always send packages to your students away- even if it is just black socks- its greatly improves their day. Writing started off with its slow, slow pace. When it finally started picking up-even those who sleep through it were awake and active- our teacher asked us to stop and that this wasn't freshman writing level, it was much higher, so she brought up Twilight. Oh what a world.
After all my classes were done a group of friends and I went to the gym and then to the movies. A night that ended with an exhausted writer and a start to a weekend that was fun with a never ending moment.
