MY MOMMA SAY CLEAN UP, I say,

Intro classes are most definitely weed out classes .

And to make sure, I sat through FANR (Forestry & nat resources) not once but TWICE with the same off duty (CIA?) professor, in the same classroom, learning what my HS friend group applied to college to find a career in.

REMEMEBR AP environmental sciences in HS? I took that two years in a row too, haha. First as a junior and then as a senior TA, but back then I’d play tag with the senior lot patrol cop to sneak my friends out to Kroger Starbucks and swing set coffee dates at 10 A.M. on school days. MAN DID SHE BUST ME so many times on the back of that golf cart holding my drink cup grinning to myself because I’m going to be late to yearbook because I have to talk to the assistant principle who’ll write Dear English Teacher this girl is t r o u b l e about I DIDNT KNLW I COJLDNT JUST HOP OJR TO GET A COFFEE REAL QUICK

 But this time,

  I was sophomore? and then a, and 

The first time I took this class was fall semester after freshco. 2016. 

    Summer of 2016 in o-house, completely plugged out from the rest of the city, first just the floor and RA, then the building and GM? Classes? 

   And downtown, #zeroproblemsbigfella EVERYBODY was in the city in Athens that summer, I, 

   "YOU REALLY CAN'T, hey can you hear me does my breath smell like vodka sour come here YOU CAN'T GO OUTSIDE WITHOUT RUNNING INTO SOMEONE YOU KNOW am I right? Right hahaha like I bet cmere OH MY GOD LOOK IT'S THAT GUY We had lunch at Bolton? You're in ......oh," 

"THAT GUY'S CLASS! YOU'RE HIM!"

"HIM!"

Oh that's perfect and then Sandbar, there's Santa, there's secret upstairs secret downstairs everybody made it jesus you really can't go anywhere hi hiiii, hello hielo

HAIL MARY. IT REALLY WAS EVERYONE. 

Toe touch. ANd up. :~)

as a freshman with my PERFECT. O-house #freshco roomie, now it was fall semester and we're supposed to get serious about school COL LEDGE,

      and sitting next to her feeling her THIS IS OUR JAM vibe I zoned out.

Where’d I go? On my phone and then back to Hometown every weekend, 60 miles both way like a COMMUTE CHIEF salute or whatever, hisssstory babbby!

I failed the shhhhhheeeeiiiiiit out of that class. Enough for UGA to pull me aside and say hey before you become a sophomore take some time to get your crusty ahhhhh! BACK TOGETHER AND ONE,

Two,

Three.....now I’m a second semester sophomore with a healthy dose of spiraling MELONCHOLIA surrounded by myself, healthy tan first semester baby froshers and Professor helped me so so so...

MY FIRST A!!!! I’ll make the copies for you OVER THERE <adventure mode the what>, I’ll answer the questions for you "didn't -nonprivatization of The Commons- actually lead to a complete collapse of our natural resources as reflected by the cod & bluefin tuna? furthermore, didn't we privitize the commons ?"

  ahem or Protecting cod & Bluefin tuna represent our failures at capturing a truly capitalist market?, "the preservation vs conservation of a "natural commodity"," I’ll sit here through Anthropology, I’ll figure out why we're still drilling, why the questions I'm asking sound wrong when I try to write THESE PAPERS CONSTANTLY like late grades are just make-up assignments, ask questions about why, why COMMODIFICATION 

And now I’m a junior and I won’t let it go, Resources & geology and the commodification of ...

Geothermal hotspots? Why haven’t we stopped digging around yet?? 2019 called hahaha quitthisnonsenserightnowandfindavolcano and one!

Space? Isn’t space just an ocean, aren’t planets whales... or are planets oceans,

    Ecosystems future Earths the moon had a twin it crashed into earth dinosaurs? What if we miss the space dinosaurs because we’re too busy hitting NEXT NEXT NEXT GOTTA MINE THE MOON, gotta build a hotel on Mars,

And miss alien babies? Forget that we have the technology to clean up and sit patiently for the next time a moon collides into an asteroid and creates a history book like us?

What if we don’t clean up in time. Didn’t we learn about what Earth needs in first grade?
