This is where I used to go to school. Excessive but visually pleasing.
This is where I go now. Bleek.
This is where I would have lived if I had lived on campus.
Stairs down to the dungeon where I have my international law class.
Melodrama aside, this IS where I take classes. It has pretty extensive green spaces which are a welcome respite to the concrete and spray paint. Actually, Bruxelles has a surprising amount of parks and forests that mostly attract locals and their dogs. And now me. All for now, though.

is VUB not the ugliest campus maybe ever? i think the socialists built it as a prison first perhaps, then moved on? haha, glad you can experience its amazingness : )
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy about the existence of this blog! It promises to be well-stocked, and well-written too - it occurs to me that I've never read your narrative writing before, and it's very good.
ReplyDeletePS. UTD is, I now see, not the ugliest campus in the world.

ReplyDeleteLuke, Dave, I think that it is a matter of perspective. A few industrial fixtures here, a Hermann Miller chair there, and we are looking at the next cover of Dwell magazine. We could be looking at a revival of Socialist minimalism right under Dave's nose. Meanwhile, Luke and I sit in our respective suburbias longing to experience Dave's so-called drab surroundings. Say hello to the old-world for me Dave!
ReplyDeleteThe dorm looks like its part of a prison cell block. Aren't you glad you stayed in poteat?
