Remember the your brain on drugs image of an egg being fried in a frying pan?? I feel like that's more accurately portrays my brain on school. You know what? All this talk of food has made me hungry. This started off with me wanting to discuss how school is directing my life, but in fact its not quite directing it. Just as I was easily ( Read more... )
