TU's Not So Turnt Up After All

Recently there have been a lot of attacks, bomb threats, break-ins and theft here at Temple University. Comforting, isn't it? I haven't told my parents because I don't want them to worry but if they read this, to hell with it (hi mom and dad). A girl got her face smashed and teeth dislocated by a brick because a little girl in a group of about 8-10 kids were taunting her and her boyfriend. Then this group of girls went up to a girl and started punching her and in another instance these girls tried to take another girls purse, all while it's light out might I add. All Temple students are getting harassed and the best part is that it is by children who are up to 6+ years younger than us. The local children around here are cruel and it is not fair for us students to not feel safe even in our own homes. There is a petition going around for more police to expand to deeper areas of where the off campus student housing is. This week, there were two suspicious devices found in two buildings on campus that even had helicopters circling the premises. Funny story now though because they ended up being an electronics project and a prop for theatre or something like that...but they looked "suspicious." So yeah, just another super safe week at Temple. Hide your kids, hide your wife, and ALWAYS have your mace ready.

12:30 AM

It's 12:30 AM and I swear to God I heard birds chirping outside my window. It's funny to think how I just wrote a post two weeks ago about how frigid it was outside and today it was in the 60's and people are wearing shorts. My word do happy things just creep up on you sometimes.

it was so nice out this past weekend that we even got to go hiking, despite there still being snow on the ground.
