Tonight Is Movie Night :: Movies
The Kentucky Theater is showing Dr. Strangelove, or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, one of my top 10 movies of all time, at 7:15 tonight. Well, and this afternoon at 1:30, but I'd have class right about the time that General Ripper calls in Wing Attack Plan R. So, 7:15 it is.

They're also playing Garden State at 9:40, so I'll have time to get some dinner after Strangelove and then go see that one too, which looks pretty interesting. So, I'm going to have to call some people up and make a night of quality Kentucky Theater cinema. Mmm.

First Day of Classes, Part 1 :: School
Well, I'm sitting in the Classroom Building across the hall from the classroom for my 2 p.m. class. I have an hour to kill. I consider extensive mid-day breaks of longer than an hour a defeat in terms of good schedule construction. I'm stuck with a two hour break on Mondays and Wednesdays. Three hours on Fridays (although that means I can go home for lunch and [ take a nap | play video games ] on Fridays.

CS 655 was my first class today. I'm still a bit intimidated, but it went pretty well. I'm still not sure if I'm going to stick with it. But I need to stop taking 12 hour semesters... it's just not very cost effective. :)

GER 102 also went well. I was nervous that, having not had a formal German class that I would be lost, but I got the sense that I was at least as well prepared as a lot of the rest of the class. Even better, the instructor is a pretty hilarious guy, so the class should be a lot of fun.

Expect a subsequent post regarding my experience in PHI 320 once I get back to the house after about 3 p.m.!
