Ye Olde Boston


I made it. It was quite the experience. Driving 3000 miles with my dad was some serious bonding. The trip was the essence of manliness. We didn't stop to eat, and we only went to the bathroom when we had to fill the car with gas. The only food we had to survive on was diet coke and peanut M&M's. We went through corn country instead of the quicker route, up by the Great Lakes; o the power of women (although in this case ultimately futile).

Brandeis started classes/orientation the Sunday I arrived so I didn't really have time buy anything. Due to this I slept on the floor for about month. The spiders drove me from the floor. By the way, Ikea is the bomb, I now have an awesome bed.

My classes are going great and the diversity is as promised. Americans are only 30% of the student body. I have only pulled one all-nighter so far, a little bit early in the semester, but what can you do?

I had my car broken into and my GPS and iPod stolen. In all sincerity the only thing that really bothered me was all the broken glass. I guess I should be more grateful that they didn't steal the car. The dating life has picked up again, and I think I'm doing my part at keeping the ladies on edge. There's nothing quite like it. I figure they better know what they're in for right up front, sometimes this works and sometimes it WORKS! On the docket for this week, dissecting owl pellets. Yep, ladies I found a girl that might actually enjoy this. But seriously who doesn't find going through owl excrement romantic?

(More blog post to come. I think perhaps the owl pellet date might be my first specific date blog.)

Dude, I would totally love an owl pellet date.

Are you going to test the salinity of each other's pee too? Make sure you bring lots of saltines!

You're dissecting owl pellets? For a class, or you just randomly found some? Well, that should be fun anyway.

Remember, put up some pictures por favor.
