Hahaha, aren't I creative?! Well, I like the titles. I think they're cute. Anyway, moving on.
Today is early yet, and so I may or may not add more to this journal entry later. I'm toying with the idea to write about themes, instead of merely summarizing my days. I keep discovering all these really great themes while I'm walking about Edinburgh- "A Discourse on the Advantages of Concrete Streets" or "How to spot a Starbucks in Scotland", and definately "A Study on the Correllation Between Sunlight and Freezing Ass Cold Wind in Scotland In January". Yes, I especially like that last one.
I began my Archaeology class today, and apparently I didn't sleep during my course at CSU as much as I'd thought, because everything she said today was review. But the professor is very enthusiastic and clearly very smart, well versed in her area. So overall I'm greatly looking forward to this class. I have my Literature class next, and I'm of two very distinct minds about it- one of our fabulous group members is driving the rest of the crowd absolutely bonkers. He fancies himself to be a great many things- and be is probably a lot of them. But he intercedes on conversations to which he has no place, interjects information when he has no right, and is generally annoying. I can handle him in History class, because I'll just trounce him into the floor, but I'm not sure I want to handle him in the literary ring as well. So maybe I'll take British Politics instead. (pales to a nasty shade of puke) We'll see. At any rate, I have to attend Lit today, which starts soon, and so, I'm off! Like Wonderwoman, only warmer. :-)
A short time later...
Horrah! I'm back! Still no word on the email thing, fun fun I suppose, but I'll give it one more working day, as requested, before I continue that particular rampage.
I think I'll swing by the library later, and check out some books to read. I don't have enough to keep me busy! I'm still debating about this Literature class...she wants to break it into two classes that meet for 1 1/2 hours on Thursday and Tuesdays, and I'm not sure I'm down with that. So I suppose I'll drag myself to British Politics in the morning, just to see whats going on. Lindsey will be proud of me!
My theme for the next hundred or so words is...*drumroll please*
Ode To Color Unity Food Trays:
Here in Edinburgh, we like to keep things neat and orderly. That is- if we cover all of your food in the same colored sauce, you wont possibly guess what it really is, and hopefully will swallow it without examining the contents TOO closely. Our theme tonight: Saffron. Yes folks, thats right- we'll curry sauce your chicken, sling some orange juice in a glass, glop a nice helping of peach yogurt on the side and slop the Vegitable soup across whatever white might remain on your curry-soaked rice and chicken. If you're really feeling fancy, you may choose between a cup of fruit cocktail minus everything colored (such as grapes and cherries), a banana, or an orange. For those of you with a sweet tooth, well..that's too damn bad. BUT we've turned this morning's toast into a bread pudding with raisins, which you may cover in a yellow cheese like custard at your discretion. Remember not to go over six points though! To finish it up, we'll not offer coffee or tea or milk to quench the mild gagging reflex your tray might extract.
And here you thought I was going to make a statement about cultural diversity here at the international University of Edinburgh. haha, fooled you! Yeah...boy, if people thought I was hostile about CSU's All Pasta, All the Time policy, are they in for a surprise here! Ah well, I suppose I should be thankful its not haggis...at least, not as I've been able to recognize it.
Oh well. I'm going to mug a librarian now, steal me ah gud edgumikashun. |
