Carleton College

From Everything Shii Knows, the only reliable source


I am a member of the Class of 2010 at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota.

I took these classes:

First year

I got there a little after everyone else because I didn't go on a prefrosh trip. A social disadvantage.

Fall 2006

Upon arriving at Carleton I attempted to make friends with everyone. This was something I had never done before and I was surprised that it was not entirely disastrous. I made a lot of acquaintances, and one person who actually did want to talk to me. I also got to know a guy who I met on Facebook pretty well. Another person who I also met on Facebook turned out to be a little less eloquent in real life. That's the way it goes, you know? Not everyone can be social butterflies.

Winter 2007

The person who wanted to talk to me stopped talking to me, and I learned about rejection. The person who is annoying in real life got even more annoying. My roommate also started to get really annoying. And I couldn't find a girlfriend for all my trying. But that's all the bad stuff out of the way-- this was actually a really good term. I made a bunch of new close friends of the kind I've never had before, and I went to parties for the first time. I learned how to have moderation in my devotion to schoolwork (maybe to an excess), ran a radio show at 4:30AM for a couple agonizing Sundays, and got to know my floormates better.

My geology teacher died this term and I went to both of his funerals.

Spring 2007

A classmate lent me her car and I went for a wild drive through town. I learned that I can't parallel park. Lots of drama happened with my friend, his roommate, and his girlfriend. I walked around with him a lot late at night. We went to the gas station on the highway.

Fall 2007

I kissed a girl on a first date and only then did she tell me she already had a boyfriend. I went to a conference about NAFTA and did a lot of Slow Food work. My friend from the above section got expelled.

Winter 2008

I pondered sadly about the Middle East trip that I didn't get to go on. Early Christian Thought was a pretty cool class.

Spring 2008

I got to second base drunkenly. I spent the rest of the term working on Daxyne. It would be funny to said that I also did this drunkenly but it's not true. The term ended with the construction of a Korean shrine in the Arboretum.
