Spring Semester
I have to say, day two of the semester was a lot more fun, and productive than day one. But then again yesterday consisted of my Art History prof. walking into the room and giving the following speech "Hi...I'm Fionna Bright.....I am the slide librarian here at UCD....I was sitting in my office eariler when the head of the department called to inform me that I was to be teaching a class this semester and that it started in 10 minutes....so I don't really have anything for you guys....so lets look at some slide." Three slides later "class dismissed."Today on the other hand my creative writing teacher analyzed a Haiku by comparing it to Krispy Kreme donuts, then tried to figure out why they were so great. He also told us we weren't allowed to write Haikus about "the man," the president or Qwest (mainly because he couldn't think of anything and the qwest sign was right outside the window).
Philosophy. "There are so many things I would rather do than read a philosophy text for the first time, like...well I have never had a root canal, but I can imagine it. Muzak playing, people with masks leaning over you with sharp, spining, grinding instruments while your eyes dart around the ceiling trying not to look at what they are doing...sounds terrible. And yet, I would rather do that than read Plato's The Republic for the first time." that my friends, is philosophy class.
Intro to Fiction. Dr. Tat Sung So is awesome. First thing he said when he walked into the room "what? you guys don't have friends? There is like 50 people in here! Why is no one talking? Lousy book worms." He brought a thermos full of Miso soup to drink in class and when someone said the read to build their vocab, he flipped. "WHY?! You do understand that you already took the SAT right? they aren't gonna spring it on you again. Be like me, I have 35 words and i use them over and over and over. Build your vocabulary...please!"
And biological anthropology is well...biological anthropology.
