Summer Campus "Just Like TV's 'Lost,'" Says Student
(Ann Arbor, MI) Screwing around last winter "seemeed like a good idea at the time," said sophomore Brad Islington, but now the business major finds himself needing to take summer classes to replace the ones he flunked.Worse than that, said Islington, is that the campus is "like, totally dead."
"It's just like that TV show 'Lost," except I can still get a pizza delivered," he said. "Try to buy some weed in this town. It's like that one scene: "We need to find some medicine. But I already went through all the bags. What about the ones on the plane. Uh dude? The bodies are in there!!" Well, except the only dead bodies are in the U of M hospital morgue, plus the skanks at Kappa Alpha Theta."
Islington said that everyday living in the college town during summer is just like life on the "Lost" island.
"Summer school students are like the show's survivors, who are forced to find inner strength they never knew they had in order to survive," he said. "We are faced with all sorts of calamities here, like trouble with air conditioning and cafeterias that close at 7:00 instead of 9:00. It's pretty tough."
Unlike the characters on "Lost," though, Islington said that summer school has one bright spot.
"It definitely ends for us in August," he said. "Those "Lost" people may never get off that island, although you have to wonder how we get to watch the film if nobody knows where they are, and why the survivors never notice the ABC cameras. That's some freaky shit, there."American Idol Da Vinci Code Macbook Lordi Friki
