Library; “What is Love?”; Pen and Paper; Class; Angel’s Baseball game!; Proverbs 7:1-5
I don’t have much to say today (maybe Jeremy is right, you run out of topics fast!). Anyhow, I spent most of my day in the library, writing a paper on “What is Love?”. It’s a standard 5 paragraph essay (or supposed to be), except I have at least 8 paragraphs. I hope the professor doesn’t slap me upside the face for it. I think it’s a good paper anyway. There is something about writing something with pen and paper. I tend to slow down and write better, I think. I first discovered this when my English teacher in high school said that a class he was taking (it involved writing short fictional stories) required him to do an assignment completely on pen and paper - no typing allowed. He said it let him slow down a bit, and to write his thoughts better. Maybe that explains the lousiness of my blog. If I just wrote it out on pen and paper!
I went to classes: Modern Philosophy and Epistemology. I’m starting to get used to the Epistemology teacher (he’s new to the university), and starting to like him and appreciate him better. Something about the first day put me off I guess.. But yes, those classes were the usual, and then I came back home and…
“Ready to go to the Angel’s game?”
Oops. I forgot. My dad got free tickets from a guy at his work, and just he and I were going to go. My mom bought two more tickets for seats a couple sections away, so my mom and sister ended up going to. It was a pretty good game, I guess. Most of it was boring, since the Angels didn’t get any hits until like the 5th or 6th inning (maybe earlier?).
Then in the 7th inning the scoreboard looked like this:
A’s 0001000
Angels 0000000
Haha, and I thought it was over! But then.. the 8th inning…
A’s 00010000
Angels 00000001
Boo! The game lasted until the 11th inning I think - when the A’s got a hit, and the Angels got three outs and that was it. There were some exciting plays in the game though, especially double plays, which were cool. I enjoyed it :). Even my mom enjoyed it! that’s saying a lot for a baseball game, haha.
Then I come home and find a message from a guy on the Bubbs commuter forums saying that he can’t ignore my post anymore. I guess he’s the commuter senator, so he has to keep his finger on the pulse of the commuter community. I’ve been posting like mad on there, getting all the snide comments I can in about lack of parking this year. I typed up a response email, which said I was half kidding around - note that’s HALF.
That’s it for today. Tomorrow looks to be a semi-long day - work from 8:00-11:00 (not bad!!), then class from 3:00-4:15pm (not bad at all!!). Bah, not bad. I’ll hav to use it to catch up on make-up chapels maybe.
“My child, keep my words
and store up my commandments
with you;
keep my commandments and live,
keep my teachings as the apple of
your eye;
bind them on your fingers,
write them on the tablet of your heart.
Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”
and call insight your intimate
friend,
that they may keep you from the
loose woman.”
Proverbs 7:1-5
