how things change
My class for the day is cancelled. At RIT this would usually be cause for elation. Now I’m really worried. Chicago, like RIT (the Rochester Institute of Technology), is a quarter system school. I only have ten weeks of courses. Enthnography, the course in question, only meets once a week. So if it isn’t rescheduled, I miss one tenth of my ethnographic education. As the title suggests, things change.
This weekend was a strange mix of good and bad. On Sunday a shelf collapsed in my apartment, causing a huge mess and a lot of distraction. On Monday, while closing a stuck window, I impaled my right palm on a obelisk type knick knack that on the sill. But on the positive side, I reconnected via phone with some old friends, I met some new friends at a martial arts event, and caught Supersize me, which I enjoyed quite a bit.
Oh and I tried Giorgdano’s Deep Dish Pizza. I can’t remember if Tina like them or Gino’s pizza. Oh and I have seen Jamba Juices, but none have been in Hyde Park so I have yet to buy one.
Mmm. Jamba Juice. You must have one… soon! And trust me, you won’t lose the 1/10 of your ethnography education. If not rescheduled, you just suffer the joys of squishing the same amount of content into fewer classes! :-) -Di
I’m a big fan of the Lou Malnati’s pan/deep dish, while I’d head to Giordano’s preferentially for the stuffed/Chicago style. When downtown, though, Uno and Due are superior bets to Giordano’s, all else being equal.
Sure hope you’re using the “found” time to study harder! Smart money says that going to office hours will help you connect the concepts AND connect to the prof in lieu of going to class this week. You can still get ahead.
Ok… I just scanned the post… classes… classes… yeah yeah…class… AHHHH PIZZA!!! JAMBA JUICE!!! AAAIIIIEEEEE!!! I am a terrible friend.
MMMMM, Giordano’s deep dish sausage and cheese pizza… I might just have to order one from their website!! Did you like it Matt??
