Today in a Nutshell

5:39am - Sleeping peacefully, enjoying my dream, when suddenly everyone in it starts banging on the walls. I find this mildly disturbing and wake abruptly.
5:40am - Realize with some dissatisfaction that the banging on the walls is real, and it is occuring directly above my head on the other side of the wall. I am imediately flooded with thoughts of someone in the room next to mine (not that I can remember who at this point), choking to death and beating the walls to attract my attention. I jump out of bed and realize that I am naked from the waist down (I wore a sweater to bed as I am still trying to best a persistent cough), except for socks. One pair of dirty jeans commando style later I am in the hall, I run around the corner to see which room abutts mine, and realize that there is no door there. I am at this point blearily considering a hidden room, when I see Mukto come out of his room on the opposite side of the hall. He is holding a hammer. I shit you not, this guy was hammering something on the other side of the buildingat 5:40 in the god-damn morning, and it sounded like it was coming from the wall above my head... I dunno. I took off the pants and slept on it.
7:30 - stumble out of bed to shut off alarm. This is a common occurence, and is quickly followed by me sitting in a heap on my bed and wrapping myself in the covers while trying to plug in my mouse and turn on my computer.
8:10 - I get out of bed and type in my password. The computer has been booted for approximately 38 minutes in case anyone was wondering. I have a class at 8:30
8:18 - walking to class with 500 other people I need to cross the campus ring-road and am confronted with an interesting situation. There is a snow plough coming from behind me and it is going slowly, but I own't be able to cross in front of it because there are a mobility bus and a mini-van coming from the opposite direction. I'll need to delay my crossing by 50 feet or so.
8:18:15 - The plough is turning left before it gets to me. It stops to let the mobility bus by. The mobility bus stops to let the snow plough through. Enterprising students take this opportunity to start crossing the road, myself included.
8:18:20 - The plough and bus become offended by our presence on the road, interfering with their mutual appreciation dance. The plough moves quickly through the turn and the mobility bus guns its engine, just as I am about to move in front of it. Let me repeat that: I was almost run over by a mobility bus on my way to school today. I move in front of the mini-van instead, which then vents its displeasure with a squeal of tires after I pass. Here's a tip, assholes of the world: If you hate students, don't drive on the grounds of the University after 8 in the morning. Also, if you don't like kids walking in front of your car, don't stop it for no reason in the middle of the road.
8:20 - While I am busy mulling over that incident in my head, a silly Asian boy runs into a door in front of me. For some reason this guy thought he didn't need to take his hands out of his pockets to open it... I dunno. I was a foot behind him though, and grabbed the door reflexively before he could seriously injure himself.
8:30-9:20 - nothing interesting. Physiology will probably be just another class.
9:30-10:20 - Almost nothing interesting, except for one glaring thing. My Chemistry prof, the one with the thick South American accent, can't say the word focus, and her substitute word is most amusing. She prefers "fook-youce" (as in "Youce Guyce" of Ricky Nagel fame). Seriously, she said the word 5 times in 3 sentences, and it was so hilarious I overlooked the fact that she was swearing at me.
10:21 - HURRAY THE WEEKEND IS HERE!
