aggienaut: (fish)

   Spent 11 hours on campus today. Remarkably survived my HIS138A midterm but I have two midterms on Thursday, in HIS138C and ECN162. VEN3 was cancelled today, or more specifically the field trip to the vineyard was cancelled due to transportation problems, so I went to HIS130A (Medieval Warfare) instead.
   After class I went with Kristy to see Goodfellas, which her Italien-American Cinema class was showing. Altogether I was on campus for about 11 hours.


   This evening I randomly perused the wikipedia some more, and came across the following choice quote regarding the Battle of Hastings in 1066:
   Legend has it that William's minstrel Taillefer, who had accompanied the army across the English Channel, begged his master for permission to strike the first blow of the battle. Permission was granted, and Taillefer rode forward alone in a showy display to the English lines where he was promptly pulled from his horse and killed.

   What a noob.

Today's Revelations
   "It IS legal to call any sparkling wine 'champagne' in the United States, but its not considered very cool." -my VEN3 professor.
   I came to the definitive conclusion that my ECN162 professor is the worst teacher I've had here. He makes frequent mistakes in his diagrams and worse in the answer key he provided for a practice quiz for last weeks test; I now take everything he says with a grain of salt and vow to double check in the book whenever it sounds like he's gettins suspect again; students openly dispute points with him in class. I feel sorry for him, he appears to have the best intentions, but.. he's terrible.
   Most important discovery of all today, walking from that class to HIS138C with Danny Adams ([livejournal.com profile] genuinesarcasm) I was introduced to the concept of pizza bagel, which yes, I was hitherto unacquanted with. Best use of 90 cents ever.
