On a typical Thursday…
8:00 a.m: I wake up, brush my teeth, do my hair, and get ready to start the day!

12:00 p.m: I grab a quick snack and review for my next class. One of my favorite snacks is the grapes and cheese cup from GQ!
12:30 p.m: I head over to Moyer for my “Philosophy of Religion” class where we study different arguments from a neutral perspective for the existence of God/an ultimate being.
1:45 p.m: Class is over, and I quickly head over to the CA for my cartographies class where we discuss the mapping and remapping in the Americas through a performance perspective.

5:00 p.m: I walk to South Hall to meet with my classmates and head over to class at LCCC for the Inside/Out Program, where we hold discussions between insiders and outsiders about the topic of mass incarceration.
8:00 p.m: I drive back to campus and head over to rehearsal for the show, “For Colored Girls…”
10:30 p.m: I finish up my homework for my Friday class, “Monotheism: Creating God,” which is the second part of my cluster.

1:00 a.m: After a long day, it’s finally time for bed! Good Night!
Stay tuned for another Day in the Life…
