I taught a few poems out of Mathias' chapbook, Play, and also attempted to get my students to write responses or their own games and they also balked at it. I was actually caught off guard since my class seemed to enjoy Mathias' work a lot. Ha!

I forget the street's name, but it's near the Thomas Sweet Shoppe and the new university bookstore that just opened (which from looking in the window doesn't seem to have any books in it--only sweatshirts?) on the same side of the street as both those. I recommend their noodle soup bowls, but their chopped meat over rice dishes are also great. I've never tried their bubble tea station but the smell of the almond milk gets me going. I'm going out there to turn in grades Monday and might treat myself. They keep Chinese soap operas blasting on the TV nonstop. Heaven. The Noodle Gourmet.

RU is actually super accommodating for their NYC-commuters, stacking my classes on my chosen days and such, and since I don't have a car, if I were going to live out there it would probably have to be in some superclosetocampus student 'hood. Not that that wouldn't offer its own unique charms, but in any case, I'm taking the spring off, so an apartment hunting out there for me just yet. Though there's a Chinese restaurant by the train station that I'd happily eat at every single day if I could. Would, if I was living there. David, it’s a bit much, yes, but it’s only twice a week.
