The First REAL day of classes

Today was the first day of real lectures and tutorials. My day started at 8 a.m. when I got ready for them, still half asleep because I was up until 2 a.m. reading about Australia's Liberal (actually conservative) party and why they don't want Australia to become a Republic. At 9 a.m. I began my 30 min walk to were my class, and the only recognizable form of coffee, is. My Australia in the 20th century lecture began at 10 a.m. after walking up three flights of stairs and spilling my coffee all over Ringo Stars head. The lecture was two hours long.

At noon I went to the student union and ate at Subway. Again.

At 1 p.m. I was in my Romantic and Victorian Literature seminar. We were 'discussing' Blake. Turns out it was more of a I'll tell you what I want to be said and lets see how well you can repeat it type of discussion. Blake deserves better.

At three I walked back to my dorm for a jacket and to drop off my gigantic Norton and then made my way back to were I was for my 4 p.m. AU in the 20th century tutorial. We had to do an icebreaker where you say two true things about yourself and one lie. We are a very boring group of people. The most exciting lie was "I am a Canadian."

Then we discussed the reading I did early this morning except I couldn't remember what I read!

Now, though classes are done for the day, I have to head to the library and watch Mad Max 2 and I still have to read 100 pages on Chivalry.

This is the 5th consecutive day of rain...
