i ate too much last night
Went to a pub quiz last night -- our team came in 6th place... we did well during the first round, with general knowledge and sports, and did alright with movies and tv... but got toasted on music. I never heard any of that music before, and was it crap!
Then there was a bday upstairs -- one of my flatmates baked a very good cheescake. They were smoking hookah and though I don't like smoking, I did show them a trick where you inhale the smoke and then blow bubbles with it -- they are cloudy, and when the bubbles pop, they turn into a cloud of smoke.
Oh and I thought this was neat: In GTA San Andreas, next to the Golden Gate Bridge, the designers inserted the Forth Railway Bridge, which is here in Edinburgh. Apropos because the developer is only about a mile from my flat.
I'm kind of concerned about how I am supposed to read for one of my classes -- should I be taking notes (and how deeply)? There are 2 dozen books on the list for each week without specific chapters etc. Maybe I am supposed to just read and absorb other points of view? Oh I hope its the latter... I'd like to like this class but it seems archaically taught (overheads, no web page, no notes, large course packet with tons of stuff not directly related to my success in reading) and maybe too hard for me since I am not used to learning like this (and seems like it will eat up my time in a negative way). Oh I'm bitching about Celtic Civ. I *adore* all of my other classes without question.
We'll see...
