Frustrations and decisions

1) this week we barely covered new material in school

2) Kucinich just dropped out. Now who am I supposed to vote for?

Archetypes are real, but not all of them evil

My first week of being back in college is over. See if you can match which professor's archetype goes with which class?

  1. Film student with a political agenda
  2. Space Cadet with a PhD
  3. Nerd
  4. Middle-aged woman baffled by technology

  1. Biology
  2. Theater
  3. English
  4. Math
(first list/second list: 1/3, 2/1, 3/4, 4/2)

not sure as to whether I like my classes, but when they're on topic, the profs know their shit. Even when they're not, they're 4 great character studies.

Nerd card refilled

The validity of my nerd card has been discussed before (see here)

However, I had recently started to think that my failure to have seen the movie Tron forced me to think that I'm not as big of a nerd that I thought I was.

Then I had this conversation at my temp job yesterday:

ME: I feel like such a nerd. I just got my textbooks and I started reading them when I got home.

Female Coworker: That's not so bad, I mean, if it's something you're interested in, that's understandable.

ME: I was reading my math book.

FC: (laughing) Oh, that IS bad.

Tron can wait.
