it is exam time, after all, and I'm not supposed to have time for anything besides school...or at least that is the way I feel.
currently, I am in the ZBMSLC (my little joke, they've changed the name and its crazily long) writing a paper, or trying to, about space and how to disrupt it, which I chose to do by being barefoot in public spaces like church, the library, downtown, etc. To my disappointment, there was absolutely no reaction, not even when there is snow on the ground.
that is beside the point...but I'm sitting here in this private study room with the door open. apparently, that is confusing to everyone else because people keep walking up to the door with great hopes that they have found an empty room. they have not. they walk away all frowny and disappointed, and i secretly smile and laugh. its awful, i know, and i feel bad about this, but it is just funny.
granted, i have not offered to share my luxurious study room with anyone else. i should, this table has eight chairs and only two of them are occupied (my butt and my feet). but, nobody has asked if they could come in. there are a million tables and chairs in this building and it seems to be the rule/norm/whatever that only one person can sit at a table. honestly, i don't want to share my table with anyone because i hate noise and know that I would be beyond distracted, however I feel like if I were desperate I would ask. it is midterms time after all. what is wrong with sharing a table? why are we afraid of other people? why are we so obsessed with our personal space?
i'm guilty for reveling in my trickery of leaving the door open, not inviting people into my room, and definitely for not sitting at tables with others which is how i ended up in this great space anyways.

Why are you walking around in the snow without shoes on?! Do you want your feet to fall off?! Crazy ass.
And, btw, people that take the "What MIGHTY Woman of the Bible are You!?" quiz are awesome. But it needs to stop there.
I love your experiment in disrupting space! That's something I tried to do a bit at PC. Life there was so ordered so...vanilla. I felt I had to inject a little chaos. Just to keep the balance. Hence, the cape, the barefoot walks, the Tales of the Man.
I never wanted to seat with anyone while studying or researching. When I went to study or research I would look for the most private of spaces - at UM I even went to the basement. There is something about not wanting anyone in your space while studying.
