New York Minutes: One Week.

NEW YORK MINUTES:
FIRST WEEK:
MONDAY: I’m kind of bummed my dad has his four year degree; I could have gone to SandHoke. On the flipside, I think four years of college is worth it, expenses aside. I’ve spent nearly two years here already and I’d be mad if this was my last year, especially now that’s everything finally coming together. I’m impressed by the low dropout rate though, good for them.
TUESDAY: I’ve never read an opera review before, but when I saw a giant picture of a pink bed, a freaky lady, and the words “Proper Swine” beneath it, I decided to give it a shot. Wasn’t that bad of an article, I guess, though it kind of lost me at some points since I never took any singing classes. Still, sounds like a fun story for kids, iron shoes and all. I just hope the composer doesn’t become an attention hog if the opera becomes too famous. Sorry, I just had to add the pun.
WEDNESDAY: So spreading this out now that I’m getting the hang of it. Canada’s prepping for the Olympics, besides that not much else. Google uses Buzz to bump into Facebook. Never heard of Buzz until now, I should probably explore it.
THURSDAY: Greece seems to be in trouble, they’d been an article covering that in Wednesday’s edition too. I like how American’s think we crippled Germany’s finances after WWII when I read Daniel Gros saying that “the Germans are the only ones with deep pockets.” Other repetitively themed articles include Google (now talking about fast internet) and the Olympics which is a given. Oh Faulkner’s in here too, but I skipped him as I laid reading.
FRIDAY: Finally this paper is starting to grab my attention with the weekend art sections. HBO is trying to make a new a TV show from the writer’s of Entourage. Do we get HBO on campus? I might tune in. Both Wolfman and Lightning thief are said to be rather mediocre, but I could have told them that. Oh and in the A section, there was a great article buried on Republicans and Medicare. It’s funny what you find while browsing.
