Hands Up!

Well, I hope all of you had a good weekend! I have wanted to update for the last 48 hours but decided not to get into that habit because I am going to try to fill my Saturdays a lot more in the not too distant future. The main reason for my want to update was not that I had anything incredibly fascinating to say, de facto, but I had so many random tidbits of information flooding the gateways of my mind I needed an outlet, to resolve this issue I decided to practice landing on my head, ahem, handstands.
Today, like all Mondays, began with the History of Psychology and I believe my meditations actually paid off because I only made one comment involving the impact of humanism in the Greek Golden Age vs the dominant view today that man is hedonistic (and so must be forced to learn through tests). Of course if you would like to hear my discourses on this feel free to contact me (hears crickets).
After class I located the books I wanted for my research paper in the library. This building is much more pleasant on the eyes than previously judged of course this is in hindsight where vision is always 20/20. Afterwards I met with my Professor and we discussed my paper’s progression. He was very helpful and insightful, encouraging me in the Platonian fashion of promoting my self-motivation.
Continuing the day in style I decide to practice my hand falling…standing on the grass instead of on a mat, because it seemed like more stable ground would help me balance better. Well it certainly did, adding maybe a whole second of “standing time “ for each attempt, and ten more seconds on my back.
To end my scholarly work for the day I had my Introductory to Biology class, which is the class I struggle, to stay awake in, the most. The Professor is affable almost to a fault, but learning how carbohydrates work just isn’t something that appeals to me. I am much more interested in the banana as a whole. Sadly, it turns out I made a 9/10 on my last quiz because of one silly mistake. The question was “what is the name for the study of animals?” I wrote taxidermy…if you are laughing right now it is because you know taxonomy is the study of animals, and taxidermy is what you do when you bag a deer. That is what I get for favoring Latin over Greek.
Thoughts to end on are: a handstand is gravitational mockery of human anatomy, If you find books on political science more interesting than how greenhouse gas affects the environment you may just be a BA student striving to survive in a world full of BS…majors, and whoever thought of piñatas may have been inspired by some very empty illustrations.
