"Er.. Shit.. I today half day then i took the key back home.. haha" - My bunkmate texted me.
I just shifted bunk and every one else who had the key took leave. Fuck. Had no key. And the quartermistress who held the spare key was also on leave. So I called my buddy.
"............. ......"
B: "How about through the windows?"
Me: "-hysterical laughter-"
B: "Really, it's possible. I'll come over to your bunk now."
Me: "Okay, sounds fucking fun!!"
So I borrowed the key from the mate who lived next door. And my buddy went through (the window) first. Then me. Climbed across.
Me: "Hey, can the sentry see us?"
B: "No, he's not looking this way."
And when we got through (the window of my new bunk) we were laughing like mad.
HAHA.

".. .. . I’ve spoken to a lot of college kids lately who regularly spend $200 for a pair of blue jeans. When I ask them how long it takes for them to earn that kind of cash, the answer usually falls in the realm of a week or so. At this point, I will stress that not even the very wealthy spend an entire weeks worth of salary on one article of clothing. College kids disagree because they’ve seen wealthy people wearing more expensive clothing than their jeans. So I explain that while they may wear more expensive clothing, that it doesn’t constitute a week of their salary. Normally, they earn the price of expensive jeans in an hour, often less. On the off chance that the kid understands the picture that I’m trying to paint for him, he expresses shock that I would suggest he should never spend more than $8 (his hourly wage) on a single article of clothing….or alternatively buy significantly less clothing. But most of the time, the idea that they might be living well above their means only confuses them and they just stare at me blankly. ......"
