LP’s excellent staycation – Day 58
by LogPoes
So tomorrow I’ll be expected to introduce a group of 15 first year students to our department. Apparently I’m also supposed to tell them where they can find beer, but as my friend Kouw said: “If you can’t find your own beer, you do not belong in university”, so I’m not going to do that. And also because I’m biased against (especially teen) drinking. There, I’ve said it.
Anyway, as to not scare the people too much, I’ve decided to straighten my hair and wear a long sleeved cardigan and I’ll try to tone down my obnoxious personality a little. That way they only have to deal with me being as old as their mom and the fact that I wear stompy boots underneath a dress. I will of course update in detail how things went. I’ll take notes. Hell, I might even take pictures!
Do you also have to take them on tour through the city? Please do take pictures if you are going to show them the places that are important to you!
Have fun!
It wasn’t clear to me at all what I was supposed to do, but apparently we (me + a third year student) were only supposed to show them the library, walk them to the mock class and answer their questions.
[...] that introduction thing. It went… well, I guess? The kids thought I was funny and one 22 year old guessed that I [...]
Pictures, you say?
I’m sure you were more awesome than any other random 20-year old.
I unfortunately didn’t have time to take any pictures, we really had to rush through the program. I don’t know about the awesomeness, but they did think I was funny, so that’s a win!
I still think that if you have trouble locating a pub in the city, you need to rethink your choice to go to uni.
Amen to that!
