5/6/14 - Day 3 - Lucky

I could only go for two hours my last day [I expect to go next semester to continue filling the void in my life left from a lack of manual labor and outdoor activity, I just mean the last day I could this semester]. Had to do finals bullshit. There was a lot of students there just starting their volunteer requirements for their various classes. I opted to enjoy the nice weather and turn the compost alone. Didn't really talk to anybody. To be honest nothing really happened this time that seemed worthy of mentioning. Alex continues to build a community with his gardens that low-income areas like North Philly desperately need, and if his idea for student housing goes through then I suspect he will receive a lot of praise for that as a way to bind together what is currently two opposing forces in the area. But I wonder how far gardens can take us. The world is in increasing need of a sense of community, and in order to make legislation that benefits our society [social mobility], we need to be less individualistic. I know I'm grasping at straws here, but honestly, nothing different happened and since I couldn't be there for long all I experienced was the smell of garbage for two hours and then I left. So, uh, you know. Education...and things. Love ya Mr. Siler.
