Okay, you guys suck at interactive entries. *sigh*
The only thing I have to report today is that I despise Social Sciences classes, and I despise the university for forcing me to take them in order to graduate. I loved Latin, and I miss French, and I'm upset that I can't take more of either language because I'm too busy taking stupid intro psych classes and stupid body art of the pacific classes. You know, this "body art" class is mostly about European representations of "pacific bodies," and so far is a complete waste of my time in that it is not only boring, it is also repetitive, and my professor is extremely antagonistic towards scientists. So I don't exactly feel welcome in the class, and this hasn't helped my negative opinion of the subject matter so far. Also, I have to work in a group to write a term paper, about which I am extremely unhappy.
I decided today that I mostly hate people, and I really am an introvert deep inside, despite my best efforts to be an extrovert, and that lately I have spent way too much time with other people, and I need to spend some time alone. Which hopefully will lead to more writing. Said writing will hopefully be the kind involving my nice leather journal and my expensive pens, instead of my poor dilapidated laptop.
And now that I'm finished railing about the state of the world, I'm off to read another thirty pages about how night dancing is worse than day dancing because it's more likely to lead to "illicit sexual liaisons." Ugh.

Re: Whatsup?
Date: 2005-04-12 11:14 pm (UTC)From:But I totally agree about the four things that these types of classes have. My gen ed class, this stupid body art class, has all four of those, except today the kid wasn't in the third row; he was in the seventh row next to me. And the class has about 300 people in it instead of 150, and the class is two hours long, so we generally spend about an hour total listening to side tangents that have nothing to do with what's going to be on the test. And honestly, for this class, all I care about is what's going to be on the test.
The bright side is that it's classes like this one that make me realize how lucky I am to have found a major that I like. I can sit in a biochem class and write everything down because I'll need to know it for the test... but the reason I actually write everything down is because I don't want to forget it. I love my major. So, if nothing else, these stupid gen eds remind me of how good I actually have it.
Remind me, and maybe I'll have some more to say about the social sciences and how I don't hate the entire field. Later. For now... it's bedtime.
