Ode to SOC 100

This one goes out to my one and only reader.

I call it...

EL MATADOR!


O! Professor, why must you speak?
Right out of my ears your words do leak.
A subject like this - more interesting than rocks
Has been transformed into a chore - folding the socks.

Woe is me! for your lectures, they bore
I fear I shall keel over if I should listen to one more.
Alas, I have 3 yet to go
Why must this class be my treacherous foe!?

El Matador - that's what my professor be
He kills sociology faster than can I sing off key.
Round and round in circles he speaks
Forever moving those old, wrinkled cheeks.

I suppose now is the time to leave
For masses of homework I must now heave.
'Tis been a pleasure speaking with thee
But I have 3 weeks yet til I be free.

So I shall end this complaint for my class
At least with an A I shall pass.
O'er the river and through the woods I go
Hopefully ne'er to have this professor no mo'


THE END

I really hope I never have this professor again. I've fallen to doing crossword puzzles and word searches in his lectures.

What I've been up to...

Exactly what am I doing at Purdue right now? Well, other than the rigorous class schedule and occasional GABS performance I've found some time to doodle. Let's take a look shall we? To the left you see a wonderful triangle piece done during my power hour sociology class. It's not that the subject doesn't interest me. It's just that the professor's presentation style and way of speaking can never and won't ever capture my attention.



I will now take you on a journey of doodles. Here were a few from my introductory psychology course (professor - excellent, information to learn - easy peasy):














Although the doodles grow in number, rest safely assured that I do take my education here seriously. Purdue has been a great fit for me, and for the most part I really have no complaints. Before I give you the next set of sociology doodles, let me just roll my second semester classes off. Let's see, there's chemistry and biology/anatomy (both of which have labs), sociology, an introduction to nursing, an introduction to child development, and lastly, orchestra. Crazy-hard music after reading nothing but marching charts but hey, as long as I get to play.

The wonderful world of sociology:



































Hey yo. I'll be back soon.*Moe
