Grrr... I hate crap like that. Or, when I drag myself out of bed and go to class only to be presented with a VIDEO. *stabs professors*

Alright, well... I must go now. Be back sooooooooon, darlings.

Oh, I really hate that, Skittles. I hate how in nearly every psych class you have the Pavlov/Skinner review at the beginning. And if I have to listen to an introductory lecture on Darwin in a biology class ONE MORE TIME... natural selection, yes. I get it. It's the basis of all biology, but I don't need to hear about it in-depth in five different classes. (Then again, maybe they're making up for the fact that it's not taught in high schools here...)

I agree, BG. Or worse, lectures where the professor literally reads off of the posted powerpoint slides. There's no point in going at all.

The worst is the professors that not only read straight from the powerpoint slides, but post the slides online. You're basically telling people not to come to class.

I think the best prof I had in terms of note taking was my history prof my freshman year. He had a very basic outline up on Powerpoint, so you had an idea of what topics would be discussed, but he would actually talk about all the details. So you had to pay attention to what he was saying in order to hear the important details.

I would seriously consider skipping my 2:00 Calculus class because it's boring and I feel like crap, but it's a subject I struggled with last semester so it's probably best that I at least go and try to stay awake.

I just submitted a Rent Secret. It's going to be all BWW this Friday

New secrets go up Friday nights, I don't know about a specific time though.

I'm taking a developmental psych class, and in order to be allowed in, you HAVE to have taken intro psych. And, I mean, I think they can assume people took basic science courses in high school. Yet they still go on and on about what the scientific method is.

Not to mention that the point of the course is to generate something of an APA-style research paper. So I have to sit through three hours of lab learning how to search for literature on databases, and understanding how to write an abstract, or what writing your methods section means.

I guess I shouldn't complain all that much because it won't be as hard a job as it COULD be, but I'm so. bored. I spent two and a half years writing a paper like that.

I have too much fun with him.

Mandi wins today's ridiculous award.

And I say that with love.

More Mute lyrics:

TOO CLOSE TO THE FLAME

Yesterday a crowded room
Today there's no one here
I believe that this is killing me
No one sheds a tear

Now I know I've crossed the line
I know the reasons why
The pain inside of me justified
No need for peace.

I know I've caused the pain
I'm here to take the blame
I will not leave you to wonder
I was too close to the flame

Tomorrow passed before my eyes
It didn't seem to change
Love I felt no longer known
Everything's the same

For so long I've prophesized
Wish I could stab my eyes
With daggers made of gold
Somebody save my ****in' soul

Mandi, that's just...woah

I can't stop looking at it. @_@

I'm really interested in what his new sound will be like. All of his songs and shows have been very guitar-based up until now, so switching to piano/bass/drums is pretty radical. I wonder what's behind that change, whether it's wanting to go in a new direction or more practical considerations.

Singing something like Maria is quite different too. Good choice though.
