I'm moving my updates to a different blog, http://www.farah-faisal.blogspot.com, since it's an easier address to remember and spell. It's been a great ride updating this blog, hope you'll follow me on to the next chapter!

Asslamu'alaikum...

Omigod omigod omigod... so today I was walking down South U, on my way back from class, when I saw this guy, who was wearing a suit, pacing in near a bus stop infront of China Gate. First of all, it was a bit weird to be wearing a suit when it's freezing outside, and it's not that often you see a suited guy pacing in front of a chinese restaurant. So I glanced at him and then looked again.... and it was Coach Carr. Lloyd Carr, coach of the Michigan football team! Holy crap. Even though it was cool to meet Bill Gates, I have to say, meeting Coach Carr was *phenomenal*. Probably because he wasn't surrounded by a hundred adoring fans like Mr. Gates was. I was gonna cross the street, but then I figured "It's Coach Carr! You have to say something. Say hi! Shake his hand! Something!" So I introduced myself and we chatted for a bit. I hope I wasn't fawning too much. But it was so cool! There was this guy who shouted from his car "Coach! You ned a ride?" And people kept saying "Congratulations!" to him, even though we lost the game (still a good game though). Certainly a nice, uplifting moment after a sucky day.
