My sense of humor is 14 years old.

There's a movie theater on campus called the Dobie, which has a rather small marquee on Guadalupe (also called The Drag, Guadalupe is sort of this campus' Comm Ave...kind of). Because the marquee is small, the entire title "Someone to Eat Cheese With" won't fit on one line, so they've been forced to put "Someone to Eat" one one line and "Cheese With" on the line below. The other movie sharing these two lines? "Outsourced," which they've separated into "Out" and "Sourced," thus forming "Someone to Eat Out" on a single line. That's all I'm saying.

Speaking of campus, I found another awesome place to eat yesterday: Longhorn Po' Boys. They have the most wonderful falafel I've ever had. It's so flavorful and delicious, I want to eat it everyday. But, I won't. Because, it's on the other side of campus from everything else I need. I was only there yesterday to return something to the Public Affairs Library. Sad face. If only it this campus weren't so big or it weren't still so hot or my bag didn't regularly weigh 30 pounds...

Exploring Campus

Today, I rode the UT Shuttle and went inside the Texas Memorial Museum. It's amazing how exciting the little things are; I feel like I may actually know my way around this campus by the time I graduate! Or I may not.

Ooh, I also discovered a new place to eat around campus: Veggie Heaven. It's Asian vegetarian food and it's freaking delicious. And they have Thai iced tea, which is really all I need in life. My favorite Tex Mex place we've tried so far, El Mercado, is also right near campus (and I think there may be one mear my house). They've got the best salsa. Another great place to eat on campus: Mellow Mushroom, which I first tried when I was visiting Auburn, Alabama, actually. I'm psyched they have one here. The calzones are a-freaking-mazing. (Not better or worse than BPE, totally different.)

I still miss U-Grill and BPE and BHOP and all the other yummy places to eat near BU's campus, but at least I'm starting to figure things out around here!

Turtle Power!

On Monday, completely by accident, I discovered the most wonderful thing on UT's campus: a turtle pond! It's near the bio labs and has water lilies and fish and 60+ turtles. Turtles! It's pretty much my favorite thing ever.
