Kershaw is my Government 2301 professor and he is someone who bores me to tears. He looks to be almost 60 and seems like a nice old man, which he is. But he's also monotone and he likes to hear himself talk. And he's a good talker. But what I need is a lecture, not a ramble from a nice old man. And so, I write for 75 minutes as he rambles. I take notes from the book later, don't worry. :)
Honestly, I really hate that I've spent so much money on that class. I teach myself, out of the book. Kershaw hits a point loudly and repetitively, then rambles on about something that is indirectly related to it and has no business being in our notes for about 10 minutes, before hitting on the next point and doing the same thing! He does it all with the same tone of voice, no difference in pitch or anything. I've tried taking notes, and it just can't be done. You end up sitting, staring at the wall behind him, for the longest 75 minutes of your life! It's just not right. That is why I write letters and such and take notes from the book later.
I have written 4 letters (all more than 2 pages long and written on both sides) and one journal entry (3 pages long written on both sides!) in there. It's quite a productive writing time for me. I can already see a difference in my writing and I'm enjoying it more. I'm also learning a lot about myself. Plus, my friends get letters! What's better than that?
I have his test on Wednesday. I'm not excited at all. :/
These entries are very short. I don't like that. I want them to be longish. But I have a short attention span. I really think I'm kind of ADD. My parents don't agree. Hm. One of us is wrong, and I'm pretty sure it's them... I think I know myself way better. But what can I prove?
Okay, off to shower! :)
Thanks for reading!!!
