This is Gabriel, one of the better friends to have.
By the way, I'm not really at Hogwarts. After all, this is Iowa, not England! However, I do think it's probably the closest thing. I mean we ARE getting the finest education in things like witchcraft and wizardry, at least by the standards of many small minded folks out there. We meditate twice a day, we eat vegetarian, organic, local'er-than-local food, we listen to pretty music in class that enhances our brain power, we go to yoga class with school mates, friends, and local business owners, we party just enough to keep the flavor, and we all treat each other fairly well, not because we're being threatened or paid to, but because we want to. Most everyone here is too interesting, amazing, or friendly to be lame towards, so it would be a big ol' waste of energy anyway. I'm doing the one thing I've avoided for years and years, and that thing is college. Decidedly in it to win it, getting my major in Sustainable Living, writing this from a dorm room...though, it's probably not what you're imagining as a standard dorm. This big room is just for one single me and my ipod. I can listen to Teenage Fanclub pretty loud because the walls are made of massive brick, and nobody else is here to tell me to turn it down so they can study. A bed, two desks, huge closet, bookshelves, and a just-fine view from my window, all to enjoy by my not-so-lonesome. There's a huge tree outside turning deep shades of golden orange, and around 5:30 the sun does the prettiest dance all over the leaves. I'm in a class called Physiology is Consciousness, and I'm learning how the brain functions.
What class are you in?
Monday
I go to school at Hogwarts.
