So I'm in the computer lab teaching myself MatLab because I need it for my RESEARCH (I'm mapping neural networks!!!! as in, building A Brain!!!! for three credits and a line on my resume!!!!! beats analytical chemistry any day!!!!), which in and of itself is pretty freaking sweet. But then this guy walks in with a stack of pizzas and a whole bunch of soda, and parades himself down a couple of rows and sits down and sets up shop. There are pizza boxes sprawled across the tops of these computers and across the desks, and everyone's got a can of soda. The computers are v. nice. And no one's worried.

Next to me is the sign that reads "NO eating, drinking or smoking allowed in this computer lab."

It's also supposed to be a quiet room, but I hear some people singing down at the other end. You have to remember, this is the university where a whole bunch of students said, hey, you know, we've got fourteen libraries, but you know what we DON'T have? A library where we can be REALLY LOUD! And now we've got one. They built a whole extra library so we'd have lots of room to sprawl out our books and then not study.

We freaking own this place. Student self-governance is my hero.

How much do I love it here?!
