T-MINUS 36 HOURS

Last day at Bard (thank god). We spent all day in orientation, which produced a few gems:

– "Be aware that large icicles and chunks of ice fall from the city's roofs in early spring and can be deadly." (Personal safety session)

– "Traditional ideas on ilness are widespread and widely accepted. This means you may be subject to:
• activated charcoal for food poisoning
• hot vodka for a cold
• cabbage leaves around the head for a headache
• pickles strapped to the feet to help with a fever
• for an earache, have the cat sleep on your affected ear"
(Health and prescriptions session)

and my favorite...
– "Date rape drugs are generally not slipped to women. Once you get there you'll understand it's not really needed."


I'm screwed.
