I finaly figured out half my difficulty in Spanish:

I should read the practice questions, so I can start glueing my ideas together in the English before writting them in Spanish.

I think that really says it all, don't you?

...

And I'm skipping fencing, as it's cold, rainy, and I have to go to the theatre in a half an hour for a fire dril. Upshot? There is free food after the fire drill. And yes, I did get to sign up for ushering. Guess whos seeing The Producers at least four times for free? (Okay, so *free* after I buy a pair of black shoes.)

*drums fingers* I wonder how Mom's surgery went?

she got screws and plates instead of pins.

how are classes by the way....?

also, i wanted to do fencing in college. you'll have to live out the dream for me.

Yeah, she mentioned that when I called her. But I'm guessing the actual surgery went well? I would call, but it's too frustrating for either us to do so.

I really like Introduction to Infomatics. We're just doing base systems, and learning basic logic and how a turning machine works, but its good. Plus it's vocabulary building, as if he uses a $5 word, and if three people don't know it, the word goes on a test. So, chagrined is one easy point. Cuthonic was a little harder. = )

Math is dull. I learned all this crap in Pre-Calc, and he does it in crazy stupid ways.

Spanish is again stuff I already learned, but either forgot or didn't learn properly the first time, so it's kinda dull and boring. We have to write things in Spanish, so I keep wantin to write things that are above my current Spanish vocabulary, so it's a little fustraing too.

Lingustics is okay. It's a diffrent class than I thought it was, so instead of doing the social aspects of langage it's the scientific parts, but that's fine. I understand what's going on and we tried out trying to voice sounds that don't exist in the English language, but sorta do to loan words like tsar.

Ethics is kinda odd though. On one hand it's a good, thinking class. The other is that I want to beat down both Plato and whoever translated him, as the arguments are occasionaly as weak as hell and the translater decied that the diaougle didn't need quotation marks.

I like fencing a lot, so I don't have any problem. Okay, so I like fighting - hitting them and not letting them hit me - than some of the more... refined? Less dualistic more sporting ways. Like in foil, you can duck and let them hit your mask but I keep thinkig "OMG! They just ran a sword though your head!", sort of thing

I skipped a bunch of things tonight. . . ACM had a meeting, and I'm now thinking of joining that, Anime Appreciation Society had their first meeting, but I skipped it (they gave me, like, three hours notice; that's just not enough XD) and there was a free concert I was interested in going to, but just didn't feel like going alone. I don't even think it would have been physically possible to go to all of them >.

Yeah, I wanted to be in three diffrent places both yesterday and today, except I just chose one thing instead of trying to go to all of them. I think I'm probably going to end up skipping one day of fencing a week, just to squeaze everything in - like there's a thursday coming soon that's there is going to be a science cafe that I want to go to at least once.

And? I've yet to find an anime society, but then again I missed the clubfest as they had it from 11 to one on the day that I hve clases all though that time.

UWEC's site has a page for student organizations. . . I'd bet IU's got one too. There might be an email address or something of someone to contact.

Just a thought :)

The IU Club page is somewhat unhelpful. I found something like 20 clubs listed there, but while I was hunting down a group for my floor mates last night, I found the anime club rather quickly. I think I have to facebook it find anything around here as the websites? They suck.
