Today is August 28. In 4 days it will be September. In 9 days I will be back in classes. I haven't decided how I feel about that. But that doesn't really matter, because school will start and I will go to school no matter how I feel... The gods of academia don't give a damn about my personal preferences. They are vengeful gods. The real problem here is that my sleepy little town becomes daily less sleepy. It's strange, because I bitch and bitch all summer that there is no one around, but then they come back and make Ducky's and Bridge St. And campus all busy. Hmmm... Maybe I can prevent the return of all but about 10 people. That would really improve my year. I can truly see myself in a future as a hermit.
The bouquets of sharpened pencils make me want to buy school supplies. The sad part is that I no longer have a need for anymore school supplies. This is the end of an era.
ReplyDeleteLast year before school started I bought crayons and glue sticks. It was the most fun I had had since grade 5. But, I definitely think new binders are my favourite.
ReplyDeleteyes, binders are a lot of fun. personally, pencil crayons are one of my favourites. along with new pens, and silly stuff like post-its and white out. it's funny how when i had to buy all of this stuff when i was growing up, it wasn't any fun. and here i am lamenting over not being able to use them anymore!
