'There goes the fear'
May. 12th, 2010 05:34 pmI've actually had a good day today - which is amazing, being a Wednesday and all.
Essay is officially submitted - YAY. So relieved about that. I'm also relieved after my lesson, as I do know most of it now, so I just have to relax and 'have fun with it' according to my teacher. Don't know how well that works with scales, but I'll try.
I never thought I'd say it, but I actually enjoyed my Asian Studies tute today. Mainly because, well, our tutor is hilarious when he hasn't had much sleep. He is very easily distractible, which lead to some very funny tangents today. Usually, he'd steer us back on the right track, but today it was pretty much a lost cause.
This was the best call of the day: (Al is my tutor, the others are students)
Al: So where did women fit in the social hierarchy of Japan?
An: *searches document* Apparently, they didn't exist.
Al: Yes, the Japanese reproduced asexually for thousands of years.
An: ... That came out wrong.
D: Maybe they were under the butchers?
Al: That could have come out better too. *smirks*
It's times like this that we remember that he is still a student... obviously with just as dirty a mind as the rest of us XD
As an example of the many many random things we discussed, Al also told us that there used to be a place in our city that you could go to bet on Sumo wrestling ... and about people stealing sandals. Because, high-ranked Samurai classmen were entitled to a 'sandal minder'.
In other news, I rewarded myself for finishing that essay by watching the 'Bad Reputation' Glee episode, and have 3 taken 3 points from it.
1. Sue is too awesome. Those videos were EPIC.
2. Rachel is a bitch.
3. Sue and her sister are so cute
I'm going to take a bit of a break from study tonight, but don't know what to do! Suggestions?
