FINALS WEEK

Well finals week is coming to an end finally. This morning I have an eight am final and a final project due at noon which I was up doing from 8 till now and I still am not quite finished....so it was an exciting night for me and I decided not to go to sleep or else I probably would not wake up for my final at eight so I decided to go to starbucks which I did and on my way back I was listening to Bill and Marla on Mix 106.5 and they have this thing where you call and tell them why you're up so early and so I was like alright i'll call thats fun, so I did and I got through which wasn't a surprise (how many people could be up at 5:15?) So they asked me why I was up so early and I told them....I'm up because its finals week at my school and they said oh what final do you have next and I said....Cosmology.....and they thought I said Cosmetology (BIG difference)...haha. So I didn't really know what to do because I was on the air and so I just went along with it and they were asking me how many hours I have to get and if I get to practice on people ever and so I just made up answers because I was already in too deep. And finally I got off the phone and I was too tired to laugh....maybe later, after I sleep the rest of the day.

Dead Week is Tough

The title pretty much explains it, dead week. The week before finals, I have so much to do but I really felt like writing an entry today for some reason. I really don't have anything to say....lets see.... I got up, didn't shower, went to Musicianship and then to Cosmology, went back to my room slept for about an hour got up, Josh brought me coffee then I took a shower and got ready and went to lunch and then started working on some of my final projects for music theory and then while I was in the practice room someone came into the room next to mine and started playing rather loudly so I left and went to my room and here I am, Writing this boring entry....sorry you wasted your time reading this hahaha.

Foiling around.

I know I haven't posted anything in like two months but I really want to try and write something everyday. So I thought I would take the opportunity to get my thoughts out and also talk about my day yesterday. 
It was just a normal tuesday like any other, get up and go to class from 8:30 to 11 and usually I would go to chapel but I didn't this day so I slept a little after my last class and was suddenly awoken by two nameless girls who reminded me of something I had agreed to do the night before. So I slowly got out of my warm bed and put on some shoes and we left to fulfill our master plan....
Here is where I must stop, I was trying to keep my secret identity hidden, and I realize that putting it out on the internet is not the smartest thing to do but I don't think many current BU people read my blog anyway so hopefully I can remain hidden.
...back to my story, I and my two accomplices rush down to the bathroom under Swanson and proceed to dress me from head to toe in tin foil...yes thats right, and they covered my eyes with sunglasses so no one would know my true identity. This was all happening during chapel mind you, with the intent of standing in pop. park while everyone got out at 11:30 ish. So that is just what I did, I walked slowly and stiffly down the steps and stood in Pop. Park while everyone came out of chapel and at first it was quite funny, everyone was laughing and questioning what was going on. And there I simply stood still, and didn't move, In fact I stood there for two whole hours. Why you might ask? Well, honestly I really have no idea. To be funny, for April Fools? The possibilities are endless. The fact is, it was really fascinating to view people from an object really. I was not me, they saw me as an object, not a human being. I really was able to see the real acts of people for who they are. Some people laughed and simply walked by, some people approached me and asked who I was (by the way, I did not speak), some people sat and stared at me, and others (which brings me to my point) threw things at me, came from behind and pushed me, told me they wanted to tackle me, and some tried to unveil my identity. 
The point I am trying to make here is this, What makes it ok for people to treat objects differently than people? I'm not complaining or anything because I did have a fun time doing it, but tell me this, If they knew it was me, or if I was just simply standing there without the foil, would they have treated me the same? I don't think so.
And so what was supposed to be a funny prank type thing, turned in to an actual sociological experiment. It was pretty cool.

I have caved...

So,
It's 2 in the morning on monday and I have a paper to write that is due at 9. Unfortunately a thing called facebook (also known as the devil) distracted me from my homework and eventually led me to rachel's blog where I suddenly felt the need to create my own. I realized that there is a whole world out there that I have not explored. Yes, its the blogging world. Several of my friends and family have a blog, why can't I? So here I am world, I have a blog!
