Enter freely and of your own will

Classes were scheduled to start on Tuesday, January 16th, unfortunately, that first day saw the school closed due to cold and snow. So all classes started a day behind. Then the following Monday the school was closed due to freezing rain. This coming Monday I will finally be able to attend Film and Lit which meets once a week. For homework the Professor has us reading a section of a novel and watching clips of various film iterations. Because I have Fridays off I took the opportunity to donate platelets while listening to the audiobook of the novel. If you've got to sit quietly for an hour and a half at the Red Cross I highly recommend a good recording of Dracula. It really puts a unique perspective on the encounter.

And just for fun here are some hip vampires from What We Do in the Shadows.
