Conversation is more interesting than homework.

Who is your hero? Do you have any heroes? That first question was asked in German on Monday. Who are my heroes? I don't know. Heroes? What's a hero? Family? Friends? Famous people? Princess Diana isn't my hero. Neither is Ghandi or Pope John Paul. And friends don't usually crossover into the hero category. Then what about family? Although I love my family, I don't see them as my heroes. Maybe Micah is my hero. He was my hero, but is he still? Kevin, Angie, Bonnie, Doc? ?????

Sunday was quite warm: 65 degrees. Ah, it was nice. Monday was even warmer (70 degrees) but there was a really strong wind. And today it is freezing. It was snowing (just flurries) this morning and the wind was quite chilly. A warm front from Saskatchewan?

So this morning around 11:40 I was walking back to south quad from my class in the MLB, and out of nowhere someone said "hi". I looked to be sure that they were talking to me and saw that it was 'Joe', whom I had met through Cru (his name isn't really 'Joe', but he goes by that because that's what his last name sounds like). We walked down the street and talked and eventually decided to get lunch at a Chinese restaurant on Liberty. Lunch was good and the conversation was definitely interesting. Joe is really nice. But, I don't know, it was just pretty much the last thing that I had expected to happen today. It was so completely out of the blue, but it was definitely a welcomed change.

GeoSci was odd today. The prof is just a little bit weird. He asked a question and then a second later he said, "everyone look down at your shirts... anyone with stripes raise your hand." And people did and he called on someone who had raised their hand and made them answer his previous question. And then there was the quiz. It was two questions and multiple choice. He first read question 1 and and the choices out loud. After he read choice A he said, "that's a stupid answer". Then for question 2, he read it out loud and after giving clues, he went back to the slide with the answer on it because "some people looked confused". Needless to say, that was an easy quiz.

On my way to GeoSci, I saw and briefly talked to one of Rebecca's (last year's roommate) friends on the Diag. I still haven't seen Rebecca this year.

Today was a really long day, I guess. I was reading these past paragraphs (which I had typed earlier) and I thought, 'whoops, I have to change today to yesterday because that stuff didn't happen today... it feels like it happened a long time ago'. But then I stopped and realized that it was today. The GeoSci thing, syntax this morning... wow, I'm so messed up right now.
