IT'S JUST A SEAT!

Do you remember in high school when you were assigned a seat? Remember when you sat in the back of the bus because it was “un-cool” to sit near the front? What about the cafeteria, when certain groups had a table? Those days should be behind us, right?

In fact those habits are still with us. You sit on a certain side of the café and never go to other. I walked in there one evening with a friend and put my belongings down on an empty table. She asked if we could go to the other side because it was cooler (and I am not referring to temperature). I am sure you are aware of the “Baseball Table”. This is the table on the farthest side that only the baseball team sits at. I have the urge to sit there and throw them off.


Then there is the beloved Valiant. Watch other students; some will always go right for the back no matter what, even if it is completely empty.

I would be lying if I said I wasn’t guilty about seat territory. I take a film seminar and since the beginning of the semester I have sat in the same seat. About two weeks ago I walked into class and another student took it. I won’t lie I’m pissed. I should have seen it coming he kept moving closer to it, but I didn’t think he would actually take it. I thought it would be like a one night stand, but he continues to sit in it. I have a plan though, I am showing up ten minutes early to reclaim the seat. I don’t know why I care, it’s just a seat
