O boy. Well, I just got my "gradecard". Ahem. It was bad. Quite horrid actually. I must say, some profs sure can't take a joke (I mean, laughing on an oral exam is seen as "instant -3" or so.
To my grand surprise (and actually happiness) I passed Historical Criticism. I know why though. As parting shot she said "We'll see if you have to return in September", I responded "Well, that would just be more work for both of us". I think she understood that. I passed Egypt and Greece, so that's good (my marks were surprisingly low, but then again, the prof's not known for handing them out for free).
I failed philosophy (but I knew what I did wrong upon leaving - most horrid kind of feeling), general Heuristics (strangely enough, I felt that one went well :s) and Middle-Ages (I sense a trend there, I'm probably just not medieval enough. Though I felt that one went well as well). Still anything beats redoing ******** HC. HC is evil and to be avoided at all costs.
What else?
I finally got myself a haircut of decent quality. Downside is that I have to go look for some decent Cement/Gel/Wax/Clay to keep my hair looking good. And I did some serious money-wasting too; for shopping at Girbaud is just that; getting a pair of trousers and a shirt for little under 500 euro. Yeeeah, didn't pay that myself. It looks good, but seriously...500 euro for a shirt and pants? How bloody insane is that? xd
Old man and the Sea. Sucks. The plot is about as dynamic as an electrocuted rodent. Which brings me to "Of Mice and Men" in order to compare. OMaM is slightly more interesting. OmatS is appar very good a book to read (at least, according to the idiot up front) due to the immensly vast number of "blah blah something" iceberg (guess when I fell asleep). Seriously kids. David Gemmell. He's better. A lot.
Any more?
Yeah, got me a date (guess I mentioned it somewhere before, but then again) for a movie. On Wednesday. So I hope all goes well, it's been a while since last time I got laid.

Wish me luck blaugh
