Everything Is Borrowed

I haven't seen any ducks here but there are plenty of geese on campus. So far I've only seen one squirrel. They seem kind of rare here, at least at this time of year. There are different breeds of birds here that sing all the time, especially at night. Someone told me that if you steal a goose from the campus you get kicked out of school. Been busy and the internet connection here is slow, so every time I want to update anything it's kind of a process. Last night I met up with three of my friends from camp that live in the area. This weekend I'm seeing another friend from camp when I go to London. I'll take pictures!

I wrote a song the other day when I should have been rereading The Great Gatsby. My friend Mike let me borrow his guitar for the time being.

Meet me in England (if you get the chance)

Stop looking up into the air?

G C

Why do you keep looking up in the air?

D G

You only see what isn't there.

G C

I guess that I shouldn't complain

G C

Oh, I guess that I shouldn't complain

D G

because I always feel better when it rains

C G

And if it don't feel wrong

C G

I might write you a song

C G

But I know that your busy

Probably a little cheesy but whatever.
