January 26-28

10:15pm, and to think, I almost forgot to post my blog! That would have pretty well been the end of the world, even though chances are my prof's don't even check this out anymore to see if, just in case, I maybe posted something. Seeing as how I didn't post anything last semester (mostly because i didn't have the initiative.. or my password for this...) I don't REALLY blame them, but I hope that hope wasn't completely lost.

Anyways, this was a terrible week for Aquinas, not because I didn't learn anything, but because I didn't make it to most classes. I ended up getting some sort of bug, and dying in my room the whole week.

I only made it to one class, and that was Journalism on Tuesday.2.5 hours of one class can definitely be a bit of a bore, but at least we are talking about interesting stuff. We had to read this crazy story (Justice at Night), about a lynching, and then went in to talk about things that aren't so fun. I won't lie, I'm not 100% sure on what we talked about.. I do know that I missed a great Journalism class on Thursday, but there was no way I could leave my room.

English and Religious Studies.. I didn't quite make it there. Is it strange to feel bad for missing a class?

Occasions: GREAT occasions this week! I went to three: the Nik Nanos lecture on polling, Pinchas Gutter speaking about the holocaust, and Oedipus Rex. They were all great! I learned about polling from Nik Nanos, which isn't something I would ever think about. I learned about Mr Gutter's experiences during the holocaust (SO SAD!). I also learned the story of Oedipus Rex, which I have heard of, but never really got to hear the gist of until I saw the play. I am taking care of these occasions! Only three left, and I am already excited to attend them.
