Kindergarten Legends

Studying for classes often seems to feel like a chore, even for the classes that interest me the most, and with only two weeks left of this semester, it seems like I'm going to be doing a lot of it. I can only get so much studying done in the presence of pool tables or laptops, but thankfully UNM houses a wonderful study spot right on campus! Yes the beautiful duck pond, I've only recently been able to hang out there to study because of the weather and it makes the task much more enjoyable. I've gone there countless times, whether to study, feed the duck, or just take a rest in between classes. Kids and their parents take a walk around the pond looking at the ducks and turtles, dogs chase the ducks into the water (some dogs even jumping in to swim around); whatever people come here to do they get a chance to relax and enjoy themselves. I can fondly recall my younger days where mon cheri and I fed the ducks together on one snow bound day in a scene worthy of a kmovie. Speaking of distractions, I should be writing a paper right now ugh.

Anyway as this is my first post I must thank Cho for adding me onto his diary group and Darrell for introducing me to this blog group. I will also thank everyone here for making contributions and keeping this diary alive and interesting!

Ugh I won't be getting any essay writing done tonight. So let's talk about kindergarten. The only legendary aspect of my kindergarten experience was the jungle gym submarine. I remember getting sent to the circle of isolation because I didn't want to sing Baby Beluga during class time (a decision I do not regret to this day). That circle punishment is hilariously lame, it was like 5 feet away from the rest of the class yet most of the kids sent to it ended up crying (not me of course).

Well that is all for tonight, more to come and thanks for reading
