Emily Starace architecture student

She's a fan of rhymes, from ĪJack and Jill' to ĪMiss Muffet,' but she wouldn't live in a shoe

WILDCAT: What are you doing here today?

STARACE: Right now we're eating lunch.

WILDCAT: So, what is that? You have squeezable jelly, peanut butter and Ritz crackers · nice. That looks really healthy.

STARACE: It's good.

WILDCAT: Emily, what's your favorite nursery rhyme?

STARACE: I don't know. I can think of "Jack and Jill Went Up the Hill"

WILDCAT: Wow, that's original. Poor Jack and his busted-up head.

STARACE: Or "Little Miss Muffet Sat on a Tuffet."

WILDCAT: Thanks. You know, I have some qualms about a few nursery rhymes. Take the "Old Woman in the Shoe," for instance. Really, couldn't she have found something that could have accommodated her and her children a little better, like a shoebox?

STARACE: A shoe is definitely not a good house. I wouldn't have picked it.

WILDCAT: And I imagine it could get pretty stinky in there with all those kids running around. Kids stink.

STARACE: I know.

WILDCAT: If you had to use a random object as your home, what would it be?

STARACE: I don't know. Maybe a toolbox. It has all those compartments.

WILDCAT: It's like a mansion with a ton of rooms.

STARACE: Exactly.

WILDCAT: I know. So, back to normal stuff, what are you doing in architecture now?

STARACE: We're doing a research station and observatory.

WILDCAT: Like a space research station?

STARACE: No. We had to make an instrument to measure a phenomenon on a site that we're building.

WILDCAT: Could I have used a saxophone to measure?

STARACE: You could have, but you had to make it yourself.

WILDCAT: Yeah, I'll stick to journalism · thanks, though.
