stuck in the mud

Every student in the Nelson Mandela Dining hall always complain about how filthy the pond is and how insane it is that they don’t clean it resulting in a certain eeky smell blowing off from the waterfall and pond…so a group of friends and I decided that we were going to chill outside the dining hall near the smelling pond and that we were going to lay down head to head for exactly an hour and appreciate the beautiful green garden we have outside our dining hall regardless of the reek. So we did it, half the people who walked past us thought we were retarded. The nature lovers of the dining hall said things such as “wow its great that you appreciate nature but why here and not the botanical gardens?” others said “out of all things one could do at Rhodes u chose to sleep here” then others just walked past us giving us the LOSER look of “oh my gosh are they for real?”. This was very interesting and fun we endured the smell plus we had good laughs.although i doubt id do it again as the weather wasnt too great and we got wet as we were "stuck in the mud" and could not move untill the hour was over.
