Ya gotta say "Surprise!"


College of Charleston, Charleston, S.C.

This walk through the College of Charleston campus is one of my regular shortcuts. Not too shabby, eh?!

Speaking of college students, here is a quick funny from the Hallmark Cards Shoebox blog:

Things you shouldn't say as an Intern. By the Hallmark Interns:
  • “I’m not really ‘into’ the 8-hour workday.”

  • “You started here in 1990? That’s, like, when I was born!”

  • “I get your job when this ends, right?”

  • “I found the best place to nap yesterday!”

  • “It’s not sexual harassment if you say ‘surprise!’”

  • “You’re doing it wrong.”

  • “You’re cute. Do you have a daughter who’s closer to my age?”

Looks like a beautiful campus. I should have paid more attention when I was there a few years ago. Next time.... :)

That is beautiful! I think they were renovating this when we were there last September. Wasn't this the place where the scaffolding was blocking the archway and the whole garden was a dug up and rutted, mud pit? If it is, then the transformation is amazing! - Love the intern quotes. Reminds me of when Kramer got an intern on Seinfeld for his "business" - Kramerica. The whole enterprise consisted of one man in his messy apartment that may or may not contain a chicken.

I always feel a field of energy when I walk thru college campuses. The quotes...ah, the wisdom of youth!

Such campuses are a podiatrist's dream... they have beautiful arches!

lowandslow - Next time indeed!

Rachel - they renovated the outside of the building. The round elevated part is called the Cistern and they use it for live performances. It is a glorious place for a concert under those live oaks. The intern quotes cracked me up since I work with so many summer students. I once has a gal email me saying she was applying for my job.

Kate - true! They have filmed a lot of movies in this spot.

Marcheline - Heheh. Good one!
