My first one was french, so I turned up to discover there were only six of us and it was an oral class. o dear. Yea it was bad, especially as the 'lectrice' I will be having is the one I had said previously that I really didn't want as she was the only one I couldn't understand. another o dear.
We had an hour to discuss "une montgolfiere" (hot air balloon) that was going down and we needed to throw someone out and we had to each argue our case to not be the one chucked out. We were each allocated a character and I was Nicolas Sarkozy. In the end we all decided that donald duck should be thrown out on the grounds that he was fictitious and there were other ducks in the world. my french is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad with a capital B. it did not go well I resorted to mumbling.
Then in the afternoon I had my first history lecture which was very exciting. I met my tutor and the course I will be taking this term was explained. I get to do 3 mini projects and the first that I have to do is 'gender ideology and practice in Victorian society' which sounds great. (basically looking at feminism and historical perspective) However I have A LOT to read, a basic historical journal every week and then extra books on top. like this one I took out the library today. Whats more is that I have to do it all by this friday as I'm in the group of 7 in charge of leading the discussion for this week. eeeeeek. :)
p.s the bleeping was fixed but then started again today and hasn't been fixed.

sounds fun :p
This may sound really sarcastic after Josh's comment but that Victorian society topic actually sounds so interesting!
Hope the bleeping gets fixed again soon :)
So who said "when in charge, ponder. When in doubt, mumble. When in trouble, delegate"? Was it Donald Duck ?

Enough of all the pretence of alot of work to do, how many lectures/tutorials do you have a week?
