JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Back in the High Life Again" by Steve Winwood; "We Are The Champions" by Queen; "Winning" by Santana]
This weekend my beloved UCLA Bruins beat USC in football to reclaim all sorts of bragging rights in Los Angeles. Why does anyone care? Seriously: what difference does it actually make in the world that a bunch of barely-outta-high-school athletes I've never met won a football game? Why am I so happy about it? Why do so many of us students/alumni love our school colors and express loyalty and belonging by screaming about our teams at the top of our lungs?
AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Turn in research papers (mark "DRAFT" or "FINAL")
