melwilSo, Wednesday was my long day at uni. I arrived at uni at 7.30am, giving me enough time to download and print notes, and didn't leave until 8.00pm that night. During this day I spent 4 hours in classes.
Class One: Educational Psychology: 8am - 9am
Students arrive between 7.45 and 8.00am. Teacher arrives at 8.05. Teacher spends ten more minutes working out how to work the computer and lights so he can show us an incredibly irrelevant slide show. I already hate this guy. He also forgets to hand out unit outlines, and they're not available online, so we all write down the assignments really fast. And they're really boring.
Class Two: Programming and Assessment in Language and Numeracy - lecture 1/2: 12pm - 1pm
Teacher arrives before we do. (Hurray!) Goes through the boring introductory stuff for the people who don't have to go to tutorials. Then shows us lots of articles in the newspaper by opinionists who hate teachers. And talks about Literacy.
Class Three: Health and Physical Education: 3pm - 4pm
Teacher arrives late. Has no idea how to organise adults to collect unit outlines. Complains about how it cost the department $400 dollars to print out more than 400 unit outlines. We discover that the unit outlines are only printed on one side of the paper. Yeah, this is Phys Ed. The teacher tells us about the syllabus. He mentions that we've probably come across them before. Then proceeds to tell us the same things that we learnt about Queensland Syllubi about ten times last year. At 3.40pm, when every student is asleep he decides to begin the lecture. Ten minutes later the class is over - we've looked at three slides. (I HATE PHYS ED!)
Class Four: Programming and Assessment in Language and Numeracy - lecture 2/2: 7pm - 8pm
To understand our attitude coming into the lecture you have to understand that three of us had spent the three hour break drinking coffee, walking to the refec (closed), sitting on the grass away from the jackhammers, on an excursion to the computers in the library, walking on an excursion towards the creative industries block, deciding that the creative industries block was too far away, walking back, taking a trip to the vending machines, fighting with a vending machine, watching M. drink the world's worst vending machine coffee . . .
The lecture was actually interesting and informative and made last year's confusing literacy class make sense. I actually enjoyed it.

Yesterday Matt and I went and saw Million Dollar Baby. Really enjoyable, and as far as we were both concerned, better than The Aviator.
I also bought a shirt from the children's section of Big W. And it fits well and looks pretty.
Today I'm buying my Ben Folds ticket!!!
