Friday

This has been a long, odd week. I am signed up for three classes and my schedule is as follows:

Mondays:
Asian Languages - 2:30 to 4:00PM

Tuesdays:
Cat - 8:00 to 10:00AM
Religion - 4:00 to 6:00PM

Wednesdays:
Asian languages - 2:30 to 4:00PM

Thursdays:
Cat - 8:00 to 10:00AM

Fridays:
Asian Languages - 2:30 to 4:00PM
Religion - 4:00 to 6:00PM

I have also signed up to be part of the gun club and the martial arts club - and possibly the fencing club, though I'm not sure I will actually attend that one. I expressed an interest before I knew about the other two - simply as a way to meet my required one extra-curricular activity. I do NOT want to be sent to detention - I hear it is nearly as bad as Madeline's White Room. *shudders*

Asian Languages has been quite interesting. However, today, the professor had coffee set out for us and it smelled... different,s o I chose not to have any of it.

Cat is also intriguing. The professor actually turns us into cats, He says it's the only way one can really truly experience the language. I was particularly interested in this course as some people - yes, Nikita included - say that I am very cat-like and I thought it would be interesting to experience actually being a cat. It felt quite comfortable and I think I am going to enjoy spending more time as a cat. I am looking forward to next Thursday. I wonder if there is some way I can learn to transform my self into a cat. It would be invaluable for surveillance.

Religion Class with Professor Gandalf was... disturbing in a way. I found myself speaking of things in a way which I never have before. I didn't really want to say them, but there is something about his eyes and his presence that just draws things out of you. My roommate, emo_padawan is in the class, too, and we have both agreed that what happens in class stays in class.

I seem to have missed a great deal of excitement today - gremlins and a tentacled monster...

However, I am meeting mparkerceo Sunday afternoon and going to the movies with her. We've been, well, flirting a bit and I am rather enjoying it. She obviously must be as well.

Anyway, off to the bar with emo_padawan and some others. I really need a drink right about now!

ETA: I have been assigned 100 words on "the fear of death" for next week's religion class. That may be a difficult piece to write.
