   Heri bibendum erat
Wednesday was the last day of class for History, English, and Latin. And it's bittersweet, ya know? I mean, we survived a year of medieval texts, a year of Chaucer and Middle English together, and a year of those weirdos Quintus and Trimalchio. But, considering how TOTALLY tired I am with school at the moment, I think on the whole it's a good thing that the semester is more or less over - indeed, by the time many of you read this, my semester will be over!


Now that that's out of the way, I'm gonna talk about my weird-ass Latin class and my friends in that class:

  1. Take a drink if [Prof's name] says "subjunctive"
  2. Take a drink if [Prof's name] laughs
  3. Take a drink if [Classmate's name] asks a question
  4. Take a drink if [Prof's name] uses "loving" or "killing" in an example
  5. Take a drink if [Prof's name] mentions an indirect clause
  6. Take a drink if [Classmate's name] comes to class

We made a drinking game for the last day of Latin class! Haha! So yeah, me and 3 other people all sat in class, reading along with the thing, with our bottles of orange juice . . . well, orange juice mixed with stuff, but . . . . . in any case, we tallied 15 hits, mostly from the prof laughing and that one guy asking lots of questions. Yeah, we must've looked strange to everyone else in the class - they MUST have been thinking we were doing something like that! Eheh . . . . .

We told everyone later, in any case - well, everyone that came to the pub after Latin class (it's Latin! We were all in a very Romanesque frame of mind!). But yeah, the 4 of us already with a head start, the rest of us crammed around a long thing of tables . . . and our prof giving the toast! Nunc bibendum est! [clang!] Heh . . . but yeah, it was a fun little get-together outside of class . . . . . where we continued to talk about Classical Studyish stuff (mostly it was about movies coming out and stuff [yay Troy!]).

So yeah, that's half my week so far. Neat, huh?
