The class hottie is blonde. She wears heels to class. She doesn’t talk to anyone except, before class begins, she talks on her cellphone. She doesn’t look up when the instructor is talking; she doodles on a note pad. She leaves before class is finished. Yes, this is all true.
I’m taking an accelerated class: sixteen weeks of evening study delivered in eight weeks.
My camera broke. I am having photography withdrawals. I am having to go “cold turkey” until my new Canon Powershot arrives in the mail.
In the state of withdrawal, the addict’s blood is directed to the internal organs leaving the skin white and with goose bumps.
Quotation from www.phrases.org.uk, on the meaning of “cold turkey”

That top shot is a stunner. Perfect timing, great graffiti what more could you want?
I don’t like blondes. I have a redhead fetish, actually…
The hottie is not blond, that’s a myth. How many stupid “blond jokes” are out there, and none of brunettes … There must be a reason for that.
The wall eh? Some reminiscence of 80′s Pink Floyd – “we don’t need no education” – . My English is shaky, but I always frowned at “…we don’t need no” – Aren’t two negatives unsuitable because they by default create a positive, or at least nihility and eradicate themselves?
Sorry about your camera, yeah – that can be an addiction.
That Canon thing you ordered might be a good choice, a little more compact than the Lumix I drag around and evenly good images (almost, hehe).
Good luck with your studies!!!!
You are just the coolest, a blond without the shade,cool you, I could never withstand the not have a camera state…I would fester
Do you think the class hottie is going to get her class credits for a different type of performance than you?
Ugh, i always had a serious dislike for the people who think they are beyond it all. Just wait till those looks go and she has nothing to fall back on. I’m with Savo up there, i am not really attracted to blonds. I prefer brunettes or redheads.
The writing on the wall is so appropriate its almost sad. I read what people write online and a rather large proportion of them cannot spell worth a crap. And what is especially sad is there are freakin spell checkers on nearly every site. So basically they are not only dumb but lazy as well. Just sad.
The class hottie could have been a redhead, brunette or inky black but I don’t think her being blond was really your point. Besides, generalizations about people’s looks are short-sighted considering we’ll all be either gray or bald if we last that long. What matters is using that time wisely and that, I think, was your drift.
All in all it’s just another brick in the wall.
All in all you’re just another brick in the wall.
the market for used lips will never crash hehe, since there will always be hotdogs lolol… so you really have a class hottie that’s too cool for school? lol that’s funny… or is the class hottie you and this is a self portrait episode?
oh my, your blog is dividing by zero, that’s a no no
Seraphine: “The hottie” reminds me of “The Walking Dream” immortalized in Joni Mitchell’s song, “For Free”. To hear The Byrds cover it with stunning vocal harmonies from their reunion LP in 1973 was amazing. In high school, “The Walking Dream” really was any of our interpretations–from attractive women who were teachers to the girls who wore little makeup and jeans. When the juice is there, you have a connection. That’s how I see it, anyway. lol!!! An always brilliant blog post!

I hope your camera comes in fast — I know what you mean, I feel naked without mine!
It’s fun to observe the way people behave at university. We had a “hottie” too, a male and female version. University when you are grown up is sometimes more fun because you understand people and the way they behave.
Good luck with your studies!
Everybody had or have a classmate like that…its impressing like they are all the same….
That is frickin’ hilarious. Funny how the same people always show up in various classes or at workplaces and all act the same way.
I was the class hottie.
You never know what you have to it’s gone. Ha ha, good luck with your withdrawels
blog dividing by zero !! ut oh, and i agree with Elaine , your the class hottie arent you sera *licks*
16 weeks into 8 –obviously an idle hottie doodler and early leaver was in no rush to take it all in so I wonder just who is actually paying her fees.
But I’m sure you will make the most of your time.
‘We don’t need no education’ double negative lyrics also depend upon one having enough educated sound people around in concert to pump out the music.
Best wishes
I love reading resumes written in twitter style shorthand. I hire u 2 4 ur gud werk.
I once divided by zero and entered another dimension.
gotta get that blood flowing again and melt the goosebumps….. i hope you’re camera laden soon…. just for the record, good spelling isn’t necessarily an indicator of intelligence or effort…. i have a couple of kids who can’t spell to save their lives. it used to make me crazy… one was manager of the I.T. dept @ an electronics store before he was 18, and the other is presently doing post graduate work designing computer chips for DNA research…. he’s made the chips a fraction of their original size, and more efficient. they don’t care if he can spell, but it still makes me crazy.
