Political Sigh-ence

as i was sitting here munching on doritos and creeeeeamy ranch dip, it occurred to me that i'm really going to like my poli sci class. i can already hear papa gasping in surprise, and possibly delight as well, "so, he's come around politically afterall..." of course, the reason for this is entirely due to the teacher (maybe i could give myself a tiny bit of credit for being more interested in politics). but whatever. he's going to be great. since i missed class last week (i'll maybe write about that later if i haven't already) i got made friends with and got notes from the friendly people i'm sitting between on the front row, sarah and brent. sarah has very neat handwriting over which she is all apologetic and full of anxiety (like, "oooh, do you think you can read it? i'm sorry it's a little sloppy"). brent is very much a class participator, with plenty of comments, intelligent comments i might add. he also draws some facinating swirls, letters and designs on his note paper...

better get back to my chips

i want your poli sci teacher! mine is ok, maybe, but weekly quizzes testing my comprehension of material i care nothing for will be a very unpleasant thing. oh and our midterm is the first day of class after spring break. that automatically bumps prof. orr's rating down a bit in my book. then there are those 2 research papers and required in class participation for 10% of my grade. oh yes, it's just going to be splendid. i have no idea what i read and my quiz is tomorrow. terrific. *me frowning* why can't i get the good teachers?

dr tkacik. if you don't know him, he's shortish, broad shoulders and medium build, wears glasses in front of wide set eyes, gray almost white hair, cheap suit and tie...and a great sense of humor to top it all off.

I'm glad you notice all the most important details in class around you, Jordan. Good boy.
