today the glitterbomber is... |
2001-10-30 i really have nothing to say today, but i feel obligated to say something. (as is typical for me) so i'll just digress and rant about nothing at all. please feel free to stop reading here. i ended up getting a "b" on my evil mid-term of 2 weeks ago. it's somewhat better than i expected, yet the professor had made each question worth 5 points. i think that making a simple true and false question worth 5 points is ridiculous. get it wrong and bam!, you're 5 points poorer. grrr. and multiple choice questions with more than one correct answer are the work of the devil. as you may have guessed, i am not a fan of this class. i don't like the professor's teaching style, and i don't feel as if i'm learning anything worthwhile. we had course evaluations last night; i've been looking forward to that!! (i criticise, but i make sure to offer suggestions for inprovement, and i also say positive things. i'm not that much of a bitch.) so i'm not overly upset about the "b"...it's not a good grade in grad school, but it's only an elective, and i've been getting "a's" otherwise. so there. a scary boy who smelled strongly of beer said hello to me as i was walking home from the bus last night. ew. (i live in the ghetto, btw.) beth k and i tried a new (to us) indian restaurant yesterday for lunch. it was not up to my usual indian lunch buffet standards. we were not impressed. bored yet, dear readers? i've been poring over books about art nouveau for ideas for my next tattoo. i have a picture of what i want in my head, so i may just design it myself, using elements from different pictures. i think art nouveau is incredibly beautiful. it's funny...i get such a physical response whenever i see something beautiful. i thought i was going to faint when i was in notre dame cathedral in paris. i when i saw the real live "lady of shalott" painting by waterhouse (who is one of my favorite artists), i practically had heart palpitations. sometimes i get over enthusiastic about it and get somewhat vocal, but usually i keep it to myself. books i've recently read: "the onion's finest news reporting," "the dearly departed" by elinor lipman, and "harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban." quite a variety, no? i think i did pretty good here for having nothing to say. |
