Everyone half asleep at Cushing Library
I am really enjoying my stay here at A & M. The first day we learned about the Chia pet, whoever thought some silly plant could be considered important. I learned that the seeds are actually edible and you can put them in certain foods to make them healthier. I am actually bringing some home to give to the rest of my family to try. We even created a poster representing the Chia, which was a little tough. The second day I liked because I had a nice tour of the campus, and got close and personal with Dr. Biology and Beth Judy. They gave me great advice and now I want to look into journalism. We went to a greenhouse and saw the weirdest plants. One of them even smelled like lemon! I can now share some tips on how to pick the ripest fruit. I went to Cushing Library where I experienced old collections of books or what you would call archives. Don’t make fun of me because I know it might seem boring, but I actually gained some knowledge and didn’t fall asleep like some of the people did. I hated the heat, goodness you get dehydrated too easily. Another are the dorms, I was sad to hear that we couldn’t go to our friends’ dorms, even though we did it anyway. The food was good the first two days but after that, I was getting tired of eating the same food and I never felt so full. My stomach will explode any minute now. I love the view of campus, everything about the area seems so peaceful and the people are nice. On Wednesday it was birthday and my friends sang “Happy Birthday” to me four times!! We went back to the greenhouse to take pictures of flowers. Thursday was my favorite. We extracted our own DNA out of our spit, then back at the the dorm for once the GAs let us sleep late, so we watched Mall Cop, thats’ when we went crazy. We started having a picture frenzy, and had a pillow fight. Just when the fun starts I don’t want to leave. Please write back and tell me about your experience. See you around campus.
Sincerely,
Miranda
