the smell of pencils and wet trash

So back to school...literally. Being in my dorm again reminds me of...well...last semester, but also of being back in the womb - so comfortable, cozy, and CLAUSTROPHOBIC. And that is the last of my whining, since I know actually having my own dorm room strips me of that right.

The strangest thing today...I was hit on by almost every guy I came in contact with. Seriously, it started me thinking about whether that kind of thing is like a contagious disease or something. I really am actually not exaggerating much about this...I mean, the cafeteria dude drew a little mistletoe on my lunch lid, for goodness sake. Anyway, weird Twilight Zone stuff...

Watched the new Indiana Jones movie at the "Free University Movie-in-the-Park" showing last night...and all I can say is, Lucas, Spielberg and Harrison Ford, time to come up with a new idea. (Lucas, you especially. I mean, Clone Wars animated?? Come on now.)

I just remembered that the dreaded first week of classes - and having to introduce yourself a million times via stupid icebreakers - is officially OVER! YESSS! I am actually quite psyched about the first full week of REAL classes, although by this time next weekend I shall probably be stuck, arms flailing about, underneath a gigantic pile of textbooks, notes, syllabi and their corresponding homework assignments. Well, everything has a catch, now hasn't it? :S

P.S I cannot WAIT until they open up the trash rooms in my dorm, so they can move the smelly trash dumpster from underneath my window. Whose idea WAS that, anyway?!

I heard Clone Wars was decent (and I did get a spiffy McDonalds toy Ewok) but some new ideas would be much appreciated.

We need to make a movies-for-the-fall list because I have no idea about any movies this fall except for Twilight and the fact that Harry Potter got postponed to next year.

Awww! Cafeteria dude sounds sweet! You should draw random things and hand them back to him sometime. "Thanks for this soup, here's a post-it note with a platypus on it."
