Let me leave lecture, please.

Rolled out of bed fifteen minutes before Diff Eq started, yawned my way through class, fixed a homework problem and turned in my assignments (the layout of the maths building makes NO SENSE), decided to just do weights at the gym and not cardio so I could go back to bed.

My day, take two: Architecture was really interesting. My professor was making fun of Ruskin (a critic) who "never used one sentence when he could use twelve." When I got back to my room after, my books for my Adventure Stories class had arrived, so I read two pages of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and read some funny lists on cracked.com.

In Actuarial, everyone talked incessantly (as per usual). Now one would think, since they get to class a bit late and talk the whole time, that they don't really WANT to be in class. So how come it takes ten minutes to get out of the room at the end? And being stuck in the middle of the row, I have to wait for everyone to clear out so I can get out of the lecture hall. I sat quietly, so I want to get the heck out, thankyouverymuch. It might be in my best interests to start showing up a bit early so I can get a seat near the exit in the future, which I guess will require me to leave my room more than three minutes before class starts.

Vanessa came over to Skype her mom, and then we ended up watching "Can I have yo numbah?" and other online video classics; we made dinner together (Mander would be so proud! I recreated a mini-Mexican Fiesta Feast). I am proud to say that I can now make very delicious cheese and chicken quesidillas from scratch (well, I mean, I bought the tortillas and the chicken and the cheese, it's not like I grew the wheat and plucked the chickens and what have you). Also, I only sustained one small burn on my arm! There might be another on my collarbone actually, come to think of it... at any rate, the oil did not spit at me tootoo much. We talked for a while more after cleaning up (with our very satisfied tummies from the quesidillas and refried beans) and made some tentative plans for later in the week. I was also trying to remember how to find the probability of a monkey randomly typing the word "hamlet" on a typewriter to help her with her homework, hopefully I did it right.
