My english professor here at Rhode Island College looks and sounds EXACTLY like Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars. I mean exactly. It's really almost frightening because I don't know whether she's going to assign some reading or murder me with force-lightning. I almost got her to say "BLACKBOARD IS FULLY OPERATIONAL" but my empathy for my friends blinds me.
I've met quite a few character during my time at RIC and CCRI, a few of them stick out more than the rest.
There was the Candy Man. An obese-Mexican American who had a love for candy and sweet-treats like no other. Every class he chose Smarties and Twix over answering questions, or learning in class. He would offer everyone that he spoke to a candy. Really, everyone. One time a woman in class said, "does anyone have a pencil I can borrow?" and he tossed her a couple of Caramello's. The last time I ever saw the Candy Man was actually my last day at CCRI before I transferred to RIC. I was boarding the elevator in the main foyer when I spotted the Candy Man talking to another guy about fifty feet away. The man he was talking to looked upset, and the Candy Man nervous. I stepped off the elevator to observe what was surely going to be hilarious. The man shoved Candy Man and yelled out "I don't want any fucking candy!" The Candy Man, shocked and scared, rushed to the next person he could find, attempting to pawn off his candy.
