I am humming... hear me hum.

Yesterday's "holiday dinner" was so good! There was chicken, steak, very good pasta, rolls, eggnog (which I tried for the first time), punch, cookies, and cheesecake. I was so full afterwards.

There were no classes today because yesterday was the last day of classes, so I worked on my paper off and on throughout the day. I have about five pages done. It's disheartening. I hate writing papers. I would rather take 4 exams (not essay exams!) than write one paper on something I didn't want to write about. My roommate thinks I'm crazy for thinking that, but Alison agrees with me.

My three favorite books in Great Books were the Odyssey, Plato's The Last Days of Socrates, and the three plays of Aristophanes that we read. The Medea by Euripides was rather enjoyable as well.

Socrates was executed by Athens in 399 b.c.

My area is a bit of a mess now. I'm officially the second messiest person in my dorm room.

I did a bit of flossing today. My dentist would be so proud. My teeth actually feel much cleaner now. Wow... imagine that.

I am very glad now that I went to U of M instead of GVSU. Their math classes are totally not as good a UM's. The 100's are all basically pre-calc stuff and their 201 is calc 1, whereas at Michigan, the only pre-calc math classes are 110 and below and calc starts at 115. So that basically implies that calc 1 is a second year math class at GVSU but it is a first year math class at UM. I like U of M a lot. I want all of my friends to come here because I only want the best for all of them.

Today's words are:
-culpable (adj) - Deserving of blame or censure as being wrong, evil, improper, or injurious.
-ascertain - To discover with certainty, as through examination or experimentation; To make certain, definite, and precise.

If only I wasn't going to CMU, I would be going to UofM. That is sad you are done with your classes.
