Class started at 11:20am. This class is to teach me about the understanding and use of social media in both life and business. I was pretty excited about the class in general. I'm ready to learn how to tweeter and FacadeBook like a professional. I arrived early and began looking over the syllabus. That's when I saw it.
Teacher: Dr. Brown
I instantly perked up. Dr. Brown!!! I've been waiting for this day since 1985. I'm going to get a hoverboard!
The door opened, and in walked... Dr. Brown.
A different Dr. Brown.
This Dr. Brown.
I knew her face. Not as Dr. Brown, but as Carrie B. This is the Carrie B I see on FourSquare, everywhere. She has been my self-proclaimed nemesis on FourSquare for full year and a half. This is the Carrie B. that I was never able to oust as Mayor of the Meeman Journalism Building. At one point, I had come to the understanding that I would never steal the mayorship. I moved on. Then she started popping up at numerous other places in Memphis. It was like she was taunting me. She is taunting me. She has checked in... as my professor. She has, and is, literally schooling me in Foursquare.
Well played Carrie B., well played.
I still have hopes that she has a DeLorean, or at least a license plate that reads "OUTATIME."
I'm looking forward to learning everything I can about social media. Even if the professor may use time travel as a way to gain mayorships on Foursquare.
Haha, well I'm glad we are now Foursquare friends, sir. I'm busy trying to earn back my Meeman mayorship from my graduate student Elise D.
