FDOC, getting into classes, and how to make an awkward salad

Happy FDOC (First Day of Classes)!

Here's a quick note/reminder that if you really want to get in to a class, but it is full, attend the first class and then go talk to the professor/TA teaching it afterward.  One of my friends asked today about a class that he had been hoping to get in, starting, "Hi, I'm currently on the wait list...", to which the instructor responded, "Not anymore you aren't!  Let me get your name and student number, and I'll make sure that you are added."  Awesome-sauce!  It's not always this easy, but sometimes it is.  And it never hurts to try.  :)

And here is how to make an awkward salad.  I was super excited about my cucumber, tomato, and feta cheese salad.



First cut the cucumber and add it to your salad bowl.  I used half of a cucumber. 




Then cut the tomato and add an amount approximately equal to the amount of cucumber to the salad.



Add the desired amount of salt and pepper.



Add feta cheese crumbles.



Be really excited about your yummy lunch.  Then remember that you intended to have lettuce (or rather the mixed greens of kale, spinach, and maybe other things) in your salad.  Add this awkwardly on top.



Sprinkle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.



Mix the salad and realize that doing so makes it look a lot less awkward.


Enjoy!
