Re: Classes thus far.

Correction 1: My French prof. is still crazy, but the class is monotonous and has proven to be less intensive. How well I do is (not so surprisingly) dependent on how I study. Everything we are taught in class has already been taught to me in Grade 12 French. I never thought I would thank Ms. Rajabally for those study sheets, but they have been the most useful tool for FR 192A. I'm not even worried about being tested on pronouns next week! (Anyone who has studied French knows pronouns are a B-I-T-C-H).

Correction 2: I will never take another English course again unless is is absolutely necessary or it is a creative writing type coarse. Maybe it's the 20th Century that is stimulating my gag reflex, but I'm pretty sure it's all the bullshitting that's making me sick. I wonder how I ever wanted to major in English. From now on, I read and analyze what literature I want to , when I want to and how I want to. Peace English department.

Correction 3: AFM 131 is not alright. It is 1 hour and 20 minutes wasted pointing out logical conclusions that anyone could make. There are two reasons I go to class: 1) I get a portion of my mark from clicker quizzes and I usually get 100%. I need all the marks I can get there because my group term assignment is struggling to stay afloat. And 2) Sometimes, Sproule's jokes are funny nad he sometimes has interesting stories/details to share. For instance today we talked about Dell and their Just-in-time production method. It explains why my computer was so delayed. They don't order parts until customers order parts. Very smart Dell, but not so much when you have to ship orders a month late. I would never have bothered to find this on my own, but perhaps it's only interesting because it relates to me somehow. Anyways...

I'm not even going to start on Philosophy, which would be correction number 4.
