Simple Lives

Life must be so basic for chicks. Everything in their lives seem to be expressions of the same objective: getting a man. And they believe that it is men who are that singularly focused on their prey. Please.

I've been trying to decide what courses to register for this summer. I picked one history class called War in the Modern World and then there were two others that are at the same time so I have to pick one. They are; Foundation of Economics and another history course, Introduction to Modern East Asia.

I asked one of my female supervisors for her opinion on whether she thought it was wise to take two History courses at the same time with the same instructor, if she had any personal insights, etc. It was a useless endeavour.

After declaring all three courses to be boring based on their titles, she suggested I find out which instructor was hotter and to take that class. When I informed her that History was taught by a man and Economics by a woman, she quickly handed me back the course descriptions and declared the decision to be obvious; you take the courses taught by the man. She called the choice a "no-brainer".

*sigh* Yes indeed. I suppose one with no brain would use that decision making process.

My Favorite Psych Prof

He's awesome. He has interesting lectures and is very personable. And during class breaks we go outside where he and Steve smoke cigarettes, while I smoke a bowl and we chat. He's a smart guy who's won prestigious psychology awards, but the man is a self proclaimed terrible speller. This is an accurate assessment.

The first class I took with him, he was listing animals on the board and misspelled 'emu'.

He laughed as we corrected him and said, "See, I told you guys I was a bad speller!"

"Yeah," I replied, "But dude, that's a three letter word!"

Suckers In 'Summer School'

I was talking to a friend of mine in Ohio about the coming school year, and he informed me that where he lives, and where he'll be attending university (in South Carolina), the fall term starts at the end of August.

Today, I was reading this story on Barely Legal: The Blog, which pointed to the fact that school started August 21st.

Dude, what's up with that? I don't have to be back in class until after Labour Day, but those crazy Americans start going to school during the summer! Suckers!
