College Tales, Vol. 2: Picture Edition, Part 1

While roaming through the internet halls of Google+ (which you should totally, be on by the way), I came across a certain photo album. It contained every picture I'd taken with my phone camera since I started college (thanks to Instant Upload, but that's for another time.) Then I realized each of these had a story behind them, and here we are!

Let's begin, shall we?

This was taken within the first few days of being at college during freshman orientation while the mob mass of freshmen went to the stadium to get some vittles. One of my first "Holy Sh*t, a lot of people go here" moments. You'll see one more down below.

Umm...I thought she looked like my Aunt. That's pretty much the only reason for this photo.

You know that "Holy Sh*t a lot of people go here" moment I just mentioned? This is when it really hit. Known as "Quad Day," this is where each student organization has a booth to get you to sign up for their organization, from volunteering to social gaming. That was one hectic day, let me tell ya!

This is the kind of crap my chem lab had me taking pictures of. If I recall, we were supposed to take a photo of our NaCl solution at the meniscus of the graduated cylinder. Mission Accomplished!

Just in case I get my bag stolen by backpack thieves. Or ninja bears.

This was on the bus ride back home. Ever since visiting Purdue University, my mother has gained a fear of windmills (there are MILES of them on the way there). I figured I'd take a picture of these to show her that there were some on the way to my college, too!

One of my more...interesting discoveries. I've had the urge to pull them more than once. Would you like to know what they're for? I think they control the city power grid, or the electric fence surrounding the dinosaurs. I'm not sure which.

[If you would actually like to know, I guess you'll have to find out the answer in my next volume of college tales.]

Some kind of piano, just chillin' in my Sociology lecture hall. Boy did I want to touch this bad boy, but I refrained.

THAT BE COPPER ON A FRIT, SON! LOOK AT THAT SH*T!

(Another lab photo, showing the copper we'd filtered through a frit. Amazing.)

My mama sent me a cookie bag. My dorm mates became more friendly to me for some reason...

There are more photos to come, folks. When, I can't say, but I assure you, they're on the way! And some are even more hilarious than these babies!
