Haha this girl had black hair and was pretty. I think she was just turned around a bit. Happened to me when I walked out of Gilman going east my freshman year thinking I was going south. Had never been to the east side of campus before, living in Friley and having all my classes in Gilman/Molly Bio.

Haha like I said I would have gladly given here "directions".

Saw two girls flash the card for the orange bus at the MWL bus stop. I was sitting with my buddy and overheard one of the girls talking to her friend on the phone. I assume she was asked where she was at and she replies "Do you remember where we first met? I'm kinda by that place. kthxby!" We were at the Kildee Stop and laughter ensued. It didn't help that she had one of the most annoying voices ever. Most likely DMACC bound next semester.

During my senior year of HS I started dressing very casual so I could nap anywhere in the school. By the time I got to college, I didn't feel the need to really dress up.

I don't think I ever used a lantern while in school. I would however advise not to store ID's inside of one or carry it in your pocket, sounds like a fire hazard.

I love the freshman who realize they are in the wrong class after the professor introduces themselves, then stand up to start to leave, get that ackward feeling of everyone looking at them, and then sit back down and just stay for the whole class.

Usually only happens in lectures, but I saw it happen once in a 400 level class. The prof flat out asked the kid if he was in the wrong place with like 10 minutes left, he then admitted and left.

I had kind of imagined longtimeclone as a sort of pioneer person to be requiring the use of a lantern. Either that or camping outside all the time. Then a lantern would be pretty useful.

Maybe it's a green lantern?

This post started off really well, got my hopes up. Still a good story but when it starts off "two girls flash..." you're graded on a higher curve.

How many of them do you think will eat at Panda Express today?

**zwclones51** · 08-20-2012, 02:07 PM

Did you direct her directly south. ;)

I didn't even realize how that would sound. Sorry to let ya down man. I'll go out tonight and see if I can't coax a few of these impressionable young ladies to do just that and report back.

Pics or it didn't happen(TM).

Or every day for the first semester?

**cowgirl836** · 08-20-2012, 02:23 PM

4 years, and I never did eat at Panda Express. Always meant to, but only went through when it was closed or there was a huge line and I didn't have the time.

Oh so now you think are an expert in lanterns! Obviously you put in the same compartment as your matches.

Yes, nothing says don't bother me better than carrying a lantern around with a full beard and buckskins. It might have been the 50 cal rifle on my back though. The lantern also helped keep the critters and the crows away in addition to being able to see at night.

I imagine if we started playing WVU while I was still in school I would have dueled the mountaineer for Supreme Mountaineer.
