But It Doesn't Taste Like Apples

Do they still make Applejacks? I used to love them.

I am posting from a forbidden computer and it feels oh so good. I have misplaced my student ID card for the thirty fifth time this semester. The ID doubles as a library card and I need it just to get into the library. Don't even think about checking books out without a library card. Don't.

But I needed to use the library. Badly. Not so much for the classes that I haven't read for, but I needed to print some papers, which, amazingly, I didn't need a card to do. Also figured that I could just read the library books in here without actually checking any out. A perfect way to foil the system, no?

Apparently not. See, apparently, one needs a card just to be in the library. We could get stopped and asked at any time. And if one forgets to bring the ID, one is supposed to apply for a daypass at the front desk, immediately. I have a daypass application with me right now, but it hasn't been stamped by the front desk yet. The lady at the desk let me come upstairs to look for my card and told me to hurry back downstairs if I don't find it because I really shouldn't be walking around without an ID or a stamped daypass. "You wouldn't want this to ruin your University record," she told me, because well, it can. "These things go on and blemish your permanent record." These types of offenses have kept many great minds from achieving their full potential and I really shouldn't risk another minute of being unstamped. I probably would have gone downstairs and let her stamp my pass had I not known how serious the consequences were. Now I just want to waste time up here. Just thought I'd tell you, reader, I am putting my entire academic future on the line just to type these little words to you. I hope you visit me in schoolhouse prison.

I think I'm going to go off and take some books off of the shelves without checking them out and read them without proper authorization. And put them back in the wrong places. Maybe, afterwards, I'll drink some water and chew some gum in here. I'm feeling reckless.

Three Favorite Cereals:
1. Oatmeal Crisp Raisin. Healthy, but not too healthy.
2. Golden Grahams. Unhealthy, but not too unhealthy.
3. Cocoa flakes. Or puffs. Or krispies, and in that order. At the end, you get chocolate milk, how cool is that?
