stupid americans.

Things that crossed my mind today:

1) Forks are horrible for eating california rolls. They are horrible for mixing wasabi into soy sauce, for daintily dipping a roll into it, for picking off the excess rice to save stomach space, and for poking the cucumbers out because you're allergic to them. Basically, American eating utensils suck.
2) In a life or death situation, I can get from Revelle to ERC in 11 minutes without the shuttle. Me = Superwoman.
3) Sore throats s-u-c-k.
4) Tiny things can overshadow big things more easily than you think.
5) I want to be carried off my feet. Blown away. Inspired. Amazed. Enthralled. Not just mildly entertained.
6) Always carry a camera, because the Kodak moments always sneak up on you when you're without one. Like today on the OVT bridge. The juxtaposition of the black silhouette of huge trees against the eerie, blue-gray sky streaked with magnificent silver clouds all lit up by a bright, white, swiss-cheese-y full moon was screaming to be captured, but my camera phone could barely make out the moon. It was sad.
7) Spring.

    1) Then use chopsticks or your hands.
    2) I can get from Revelle to ERC in 10 minutes.
    3) You might have strep throat!
    4) YES
    5) Look no further.
    6) Good eye. You should be a photographer.

    Dan:
    1) Obviously I didn't have chopsticks. And I don't like eating with my hands if it's at all preventable.
    2) You're either saying that because it's one minute less, or it's the fact that you have longer legs.
    3) I really think I might :(
    4) Right?
    5) -excuse me as I run to the bathroom-

    1)Can't always dismiss the usefulness of a tool simply because it fails in one of the tasks you set it too. You wouldn't use a screwdriver to hammer in nails, would you? Same with people, some people are just better fit for somethings then others.

    But yes, chopsticks are much better in more situations.

    2) There's a story behind this one, isn't there? I would like to hear it.

    5) Jesus.

    HI MICHELLE!
