Today was truly a nice day. I woke up at 0600 this morning for some good ole Navy physical training. It's always nice when the Air Force ROTC unit is in the gym also while we are, because we get to do cadence runs. This morning consisted of plenty of intense exercise and then our Lieutenant leading us in a cadence run that was a fun kind of taunting of the Air Force. 'Twas a great start to a great day.

After PT I went to my american furniture history seminar,and that was loads of fun until my body realized I didn't have any caffeine and it was a pretty epic battle trying to stay awake during class. After my furniture seminar I went back to my room and accidentally slept through my calculus class. Woops. At least the nap was worth it, and today was a lecture on limits. I think I learned a valuable lesson: when my body is pushed to the limit of exhaustion, I should take a nap and never look back.

I also got some work hours in today putting up fliers around campus. Some may consider it annoying work, but if I'm getting paid $14 an hour to tack fliers up I'M not complaining. I found an interesting gargoyle/sculpture on the Sterling Law School building, so I snapped a picture to show you all:

I couldn't really decide if it's a military officer or traffic cop, but whatever it is, it's quite interesting. And yes, I looked just like the thousands of high school seniors that flock to Yale each fall and snap pictures of every possible object on campus. No shame there, the pic was worth the judgement by my fellow Yalies.

My buddy needed to go buy a hat from the Yale bookstore, so I decided to  tag along after dinner. At the bookstore, I found my future "ignorant old man" hat.  I decided to not smile in honor of all the stiff old men that probably wear hats like this one:

And now I leave you with the stereotypical picture of Harkness Tower just before dusk in Branford College:
