I learned nothing in sociology today. My instructor reviewed research methodology, which bored me because rather than explain how to conduct research, she merely denoted the existence of the different methods. I want to get through these basics so that I can eventually enroll in upper-level courses.at 2:40 PM
My persuasion class likewise disappointed me in the entertainment department. We conducted a group activity about anchors, then adjourned. The class lasted seven minutes. This proved beneficial for me, however, because it allowed me nearly two hours to sit in the empty room completing two chapter summaries for college algebra that I neglected to write last night.
Onamae wa nan desu ka. I asked five people their names, nationalities, and occupations during Japanese class. I was a German lawyer. Since I took Japanese I last year, I amuse myself listening to the kids who are unfamiliar with the language mispronounce everything. For example, namae is pronounced "nah-mah-ay", but people often first pronounce it "nay-may-ee", which is nowhere near correct. I am a nihongo snob.
My algebra professor looks like William (or, as April calls him, "Captain Willie") with blue eyes. He even has some of the same mannerisms. It's more than a little eerie.
Whelp, I am off to wander around the dollar store, looking for delights. Sayoonara.
