A Day with Karissa

Whoa!  The life of a college student is busy!  I joined up with Karissa during Language Arts Methods.  I had to sit through that class, learning about how to write a memoir.  That is something to consider....a story about a memorable moment in my life. Hmmmm. Nah I give up.  There are too many to choose from!  So after that class, Karissa and I headed to Children's Literature, which was um thrilling I guess is the only word to use.  I played musical desks between Lauren and Karissa.  When we finally were done with that class, Karissa brought me back to her dorm room, the place that she lives nine months out of the year.  It was shocking really....I mean that room is TINY! How do two people live in there? CRAZY I tell you!  Anyways I settled in next to Karissa's computer on her desk, and watched her pull out about five different books to do homework.  I wish I could tell you what she did and how much I learned from it but I kind of, well sort of fell asleep for awhile.  But who can blame me?  I don't know how you college kids do it.  I really don't.  Karissa woke me up from my "reading the back of my eyelids" session in order to take me to supper in the lovely commons.  I met up with her friends, who are pretty awesome let me tell you! I giggled the whole time....especially when Karissa tripped over nothing.  I have no idea how she does that.  Then it was off to class where lucky me got to hang out in Karissa's backpack with only my head peeking out.  I watched as the entire class, in pairs of two or just individuals presented lessons with an accompanying physical activity.  They kept talking about the importance of physical activity and here I was stuck in a backpack!  Oh well, Karissa let me out to finally stretch my legs when we got back to the dorm room.  Then she did more homework and I napped. Again.  Well I shouldn't say napped.  I was watching a movie....on the back of my eyelids.  The movie was so interesting that I didn't even notice when Karissa climbed up into bed!  It was such a long movie that the next thing I remember was being woken up by Karissa also falling off her desk.  I don't know how this girl is still alive.  I have just learned to not ask questions.  When she and Lauren were finally ready to go, I was loaded into my usual backpack spot and off we went to Reading Methods where it became Lauren's turn to broaden my horizons.  On that note see you in the next chapter of the Marty Adventures!
