(Forgive any random bouncing/typos/general nonsense, I'm highly drowsy and hardly able to focus.)
I went to daycare--er, college--today. It was just like friggin' daycare.
My Public Speaking professor is out of the country on some trip to Japan. Instead of cancelling class, she asks the dean of the communication department to come in and show us a craptastic movie. And to make sure we watch it, she assigns us a 2-page essay assignment. Can you say "busy work?" Meh.
Anyway... I learned the dean of the communication department was the same professor who taught the Public Speaking class I flunked in my first semester... that was a fun flashback. Fortunately, he didn't recognize me, so I didn't have to talk to him.
The assignment is to write a 2-page essay about two speeches delivered in the movie. We're supposed to describe the speech and situation, explain how/why they succeeded/failed in delivering their message, and what happened as a result of the presentation. I've written down details on 3 performances, but there's nowhere near enough information there for a paper. She failed to mention that the speeches are simply 30-second segments that offer no information whatsoever.
I knocked out 150 pages in my latest book, which I didn't realize I'd never read before.
Geology class also had the professor absent (yet again), leaving us to watch another stupid documentary. But for 25 extra credit points, you sit down and shut your face... although immediately after the last question was answered, everybody left... despite there being 20 minutes left on the movie. It was a mass exodus that was hilariously worth being in class for.
In other news, I have no other news. I'm extremely drowsy... so much so that I may be buzzed on exhaustion, which is always fun. Fortunately though, I'm not gonna attempt anything stupid, so there will be no injuries tonight. ...At least none that I could've prevented.
I'm gonna get off here before I babble incessantly about something completely from left field. I'm drowsy enough to do it.
G'night.
