The good of the bad.

High Fidelity with Will on Thursday, finally. took forever. my fault.

Friday:
Psych-we had a different teacher because ours was at some neuro conference. fancy. She showed us two vids (how to be happy and why are we happy). I fail, a little...

Then there was a belated celebration of lights (Devali) because of issues reserving Manor for it. It was interesting because there were people celebrating it from all over (Adrinne Jack and I were convinced to go by our dorm-mates from Nepal, Suyog and Abeshek). But one of the girls giving the presentation was from Sri Lanka, so her version of the holiday/how long it lasted/what was done/why it is celebrated was different. It covers three religions (Hinduism, Jainism and Sikhism), so the variety is unsurprising, I guess? But I didn't know at all. Also-Indian food. mmm.
Hannah and Rosette went to an acoustic folk jam which they enjoyed.
(idk how I feel about folk)

Today I went to Montgomery Place with Will since it was warm. It always feels like it is the last day of warmth, since it should have stopped being warm by now, the sun sets so early. We found edible crab apples. The herb garden from last time is ripped up, which meant that the greenhouse behind it was noticeable, with all its weird cacti and flowering plants. Also got to go on the other side of the fence of another garden there. I thought that there was no gate to the garden, but part of the fence swings open and there was an apple orchard. There are so many rotting apples there, but we found a few edible ones,
What a waste.
It also explains why it smelled so strongly of apples last time.

almost done with the Inferno (read 18-33 today) which leaves one canto to go, but it isn't due next class. It doesn't say when it's due on the syllabus...the mystery of the missing canto. Looked at the course list for classes today too... No hot water today in the dorm or the adjoining one. Not pleasant to shower in. A lot of people skipped showering/went to another dorm.

and I want fruit that isn't mealy apples or strangely unappealing bananas from Klien. We had Hannah's last grapefruit today.
