<p>oh what’s wrong?</p>
<p>If you’re going to Ithaca
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you’re going to Ithaca
You’re gonna meet some gentle people there lalalala</p>
<p>haha never mind. I was just crazy … as always</p>
<p>omg, I’m such a nerd…
In the days counting down to Ithaca, i’ve been memorizing the notes to this economic development course I found
I was looking up some stuff online about Brown and I found this random Brown prof. who posts all his notes/discussions online. Although I acknowledge the true nerdiness of this, I have nothing to say…its really really really interesting</p>
<p>i feel like im missing something. </p>
<p>has anything been sent to the people going to cornell?</p>
<p>like any other, last minute, departing information?</p>
<p>Nope.</p>
<p>I’ve been paranoid about the same thing.</p>
<p>one week.</p>
<p>Still hasn’t sunk in</p>
<p>**** me. </p>
<p>I’m really excited.</p>
<p>When are some of you UT’ers flying in?</p>
<p>I’m supposed to arrive at 3:40, but I might have to go through customs and whatnot. I think that Toronto might have pre-boarding customs which would be nice.</p>
<p>but yeah, cab splitting?</p>
<p>^I think your suppose to be in before 4 
</p>
<p>I’m getting in the day before, check out the city and visit a family friend</p>
<p>Nope, 5:00PM. </p>
<p>That was pretty much the only flight going in though. Across all the ticket indexing sites, if I wanted to pay a reasonable price it was the Toronto - Austin flight that comes in at 3:40. In any case, I guess I’m going through customs here in Halifax, and I’ll arrive in Austin without a hassle.</p>
<p>Dude. We will all be real TASPers a week from right now.
(Anyone else still worried that Telluride’s going to call up and say, “WHOOPS, we meant to admit this other person, have a nice summer”? Haha.)</p>
<p>has anyone put serious thought into their pubspeaks??</p>
<p>i read, like, an entire article in harper’s about a mental illness that only occurs in southeast asia and parts of africa. it makes people believe their genitals are receding into their bodies. at first i was intrigued, but then i realized how well the factota would not receive my pubspeak on this incredible topic.</p>
<p>so no.</p>
<p>anyone flying into austin around 12 o’clock? my flight comes in at 12:20 and i’ll be taking the bus unless some gracious soul would like to share a cab :-D</p>
<p>edit: lookbeyond- every moment. i want michael & jen to send me something so that i know the last 8 weeks haven’t just been a wonderful but ultimately betraying dream</p>
<p>Are we supposed to have our pubspeaks prepared before we get there?</p>
<p>edit: never mind, the factota letter explains it</p>
<p>no…</p>
<p>i think that people are not fully comprehending this thing…</p>
<p>lemme explain: our pubspeaks are supposed to be about things that reveal things about ourselves. </p>
<p>say…your an albino…talk about it.
say…you live in southeast asia or africa and have a mental illness that makes you believe that your genitals are receding into your body…talk about it.</p>
<p>if that’s so, i really want to learn about how you fear your scrotum being pulled into your pelvis.</p>
<p>its semi-sarcastic, but i believe it works…</p>
<p>don’t be exclusionary. it can also make women believe their breasts are inverting and sinking into their ribcages.</p>
<p>one wonders: how would gloria steinem feel?</p>
<p>hello,</p>
<p>is anyone bringing a musical instrument to ithaca? I’m thinking of taking my saxophone…but it’s not really worth it if I will be playing on my own :(. Specifically, is anyone interested in playing some jazz this summer?</p>
<p>tchuss</p>
<p>ok so I got my driving license for 4 hours and my speed record so far is 150 with a 911, yeah scrape me off the pavement and bury me in a cookie box ! ;)</p>
<p>I thought about doing my pubspeak on the properties of magick… not sure how that’d go over. XD But I ended up getting the last slot anyway, so I’m not worried. ^__^</p>
<p>Question: breasts?? genitals?</p>
<p>Answer: not included in that panoply.</p>
<p>hmmm…</p>
<p>as for Gloria Steinem, i think she wants her breasts to go away, or at least think that they are. she’s a feminist; i imagine that she doesnt particularly value the anatomy which makes her sex most objectified…</p>
<p>haha</p>
