I was planning on going to a lecture this morning. The lectures here are all very far away, by Wesleyan standards. A walk from Martin to Shirk would be a minimal minimal everyday walk here. So I need to get going pretty early. However, this morning, when I was getting ready to leave for the lecture and went to the bathroom, my room door was shut by the wind and I suddenly found that I didn't have a room key with me. The rooms here are all singles so it is really easy to get locked out. So I have to go to the Porter's Lodge and get a room key, with which I still could not get into the building because I need a fob key to enter the building. I had waited in the wind at the entrance of the building for quite a while before somebody finally came out so that I could have the door opened. Fortunately there is no charge for lockouts. And, of course, I am late for the lecture that I planned on going to.
I have never had one lockout during my two years at IWU. What's wrong with me?
Alright I just want to talk about my experience today, which has some interesting facts about life here. Now I need to return the key to the Podge. Oh by the way Manchester United is going to play Moscow for the European Champion's League this afternoon. Finally, finally there are many people around interested in soccer, I mean, football.

You're forgetful in your old age, Chao. haha
ReplyDeleteIWU prepares you for Oxford in every way but that! I was late to my first Oxford lecture because I mistook the St. Cross Building for St. Cross College. The college is a five-minute walk from Worcester, but the building is about twenty-five minutes away. Since no place at IWU is ever more than a five-minute walk away, the first St. Cross I noticed on the map was where I assumed the lecture was taking place. And now I'll never know about 'Shakespeare and the Supernatural'. Oh well!
