:: Closing Time ::

:: Wednesday, October 09, 2002 ::

You know, as good as my schedule can look on paper (I only have class before 11:00 once a week), the whole damn thing is backwards. Let's look at it specifically:

Monday:

First class, 11:00 - Ear Training, which I basically can miss. And have now, two weeks in a row. I go to the Wednsday class though, which is when we take our quizzes. Then I have 12:30 Physics, which last term I'd been known to skip a lot (it was basically all review), and 2:00 Italian. My day starts at 11:00 and is over by 3:00 - it's a pretty good, light day. But it's Monday, so it fucking sucks.

Tuesday:

First class, again 11:00, only this time it's Mathematical Logical Reasoning, which I shouldn't skip but still do occasionally. Then I have Italian at 2:00, so there's an ok break in there, and then economics at 4:30. Let's just say this - I haven't been too good about going to Econ. Once I've wound down, it's hard to get to a class all the way across campus at 4:30, where all the information is in the book and the lectures are so big there's no chance of being missed. This day sucks because I either have to drag it on long into the afternoon, or feel bad about having missed a class.

Wednesday:

It's pretty obvious why this day sucks, because I get up for my only 9:30 - my fucking freshman advising workshop. At least it's in the basement of my dorm, but I thought I'd be able to go down in pajamas and be half awake and have nobody care the first class - well, that didn't happen. I showed up in a t-shirt, pajama pants, flip flops and a hat, and people got all confused. Which sucked. So now I have to fucking get dressed before it (given that I picked up a class right after, this would have been required anyhow). So yeah. Workshop 9:30-10:45, book it over for Ear Training at 11:00 which I can't miss cause of the quizzes. Physics at 12:30 - same thing as Monday, this is usually when I take a break if I really need it. Today I'm going to take physics off, because for some fucking reason which I can't explain I decided to watch Fight Club last night at 2:30 in the morning - it's a two + hour movie. I just felt like watching it, I dunno. Anyhow, then again I have Italian at 2:00, and though my day is over by 3:00 it started at 9:30.

Thursday:

Ahh, the late day, in every way. Late in the week - I should be excited, because pledge events are on Thursdays and after pledging is over partying will be on Thursdays. Plus it's the start of the weekend since I don't have Friday classes. BUT start up at 11:00 again with Logic, which I can't miss, and then Italian, which I can't miss, and then Econ, which is a similar story to Tuesday. The difference here is that I then have a 6:10-8:00 Physics Lab!! Well, when it's Lab it's a bitch - when it's recitation it becomes clear that I'm far more competant than my TA and my classmates, primarily due to the absolutely incredible teaching job Mr. Krieger did - none of us, and I mean -none- of us (even his huge fans) adequately appreciated him. I considered writing him a letter about it, but then decided it might be a little more special if I came back and told him in person. Anyhow, that's a bitch of a day.

So all in all my schedule looks good but feels shitty. Just my daily commentary.

Oh, BTW. Jack - that thing that you yelled at me about last week? I've stopped completely since then, and doing just fine. Now if only you could have that affect to make me go to the fucking gym.
