A bit of a rant

Today the annoying girl in my math class clapped because we were learning base 2 notation. She actually applauded. What the heck? I love my classes but I don't clap when I hear the word "semantics." It's just odd. There's a girl in my house who apparently lies on the floor for all her classes, and once Peter Gregory tripped over her. What is wrong with these people? This is not how we behave in a classroom for goodness' sake!

I thought I was all set until I took a look at the 5 College course listings. Now I'm back to square one. For all the snarky comments people make about UMass, they have some really neat courses. It breaks my heart that I can take, at the absolute most, twenty of them and more likely between 16 and 18- I don't especially want to take five classes every semester- that would be a bit insane, and considering the list of UMass and Hampshire classes, I'd be spending a lot of time on the bus. I may have to get a car.
