so today in Book of Acts i was sitting there. i was awake, which was unusual. i was accomplishing this by reading a book. normally i avoid this because i sit in the front row (assigned seating), but hey, i was bored. halfway through the class the prof asked me a direct question. i looked at him and shrugged and he went on. i thought about that encounter for a little bit then returned to my book. actually, it doesn't matter whether i'm reading a book or not, anyone who he asks questions of, invariably they dont have an answer. i look around the class and i have never seen such a clueless, dazed, extremely bored group of people. i'm truly not learning a thing in that class. then i go to Flight Instructor Theory. ha, here i learn something. we're currently doing presentations. i'm doing one on thur on wingtip vorticies (check out the racquetball site on the top left that i came across in my research). i get to spend 20 minutes on the subject and i'm looking forward to it. our class has about eight in it, maybe nine students in it. today a friend of mine did a presentation on aerodynamics. the rest of the class gets to act like newbie private pilot students and ask lots of simple questions. it's a lot of fun trying to get the presenter to crack or go postal or go to some other such diabolical end. but yeah, i feel for k, most of my classes i don't learn much (but i did finish a book today that i finished with 24hrs of the start, a rather sizable paperback. couldn't have done it without reading straight through three of my four classes, see?)20:58 email me permalink / commentary (0)
