Classes Are Myths I Don't Attend

I am not having as difficult a time being a vegetarian as I thought I would have. If it were more convenient, I could easily be a vegetarian for life. It won't make much of a difference in the long run because college has made me begin to lose interest in food. Right now I am eating a grilled vegetable sandwich at the library. I enjoy it almost as much as I enjoy skipping mythology class.

I Skip Class to Drink Berkey Creamery Green Tea at the Library

I did not make it to all of my classes today although I woke up early with the intent of being a good student. The day is too long and the classes are too boring. I am having so much fun sitting here and staring at this damn screen that I may just skip my next class as well. I am still in my very relaxed Spring break mode.

Yesterday's trip back to school was not worth it. I woke up at nine thirty in the morning to get ready for my noon bus. The bus did not leave Philadelphia until after two. I did not arrive at State College until after six. Philadelphia randomly decided that it would like to throw a Saint Patrick's Day parade right on my bus route. Greyhound decided not to function. The bus driver could not work her way around the traffic. She made three cars back up so she could make one turn. After three hours into the (supposedly three and a half hours long) bus ride, the bus stopped on the road and smoke appeared from the back. A lady nearby questioned whether the bus was on fire. My immediate thought was, "When will this thing blow up?" We then made a stop for food. (I suspect that the driver broke the bus so she could have some pizza.) It was, unfortunately, not the most pleasant trip of my life. I will crawl before I get on another Greyhound to State College.
