I guess today has just been one of those eat-duck-liver-paste days. And not necessarily in a bad way.
The first eventful thing that happened today was that we tried pâté de foie de canard, which is basically a meat spread. Foie de canard literally means "liver of duck," so it was pretty much a spreadable duck sausage. It wasn't too bad. A little weird, but in an okay way. What was really funny, though, was our teacher didn't even like the stuff! And I think most of my classmates didn't really like it either. Me, I had two saltine crackers of the goop.
Next, I found out that I'm actually doing a lot better in Contemporary Philosophy than I thought I was. Which really isn't saying much, since I thought I either had a D or was failing. Turns out I have a C+ overall, and got a B on my first test. At least I think that's what I got. Our teacher handed out number grades, and I stink at translation. But the guy who sits next to me (his name is Ben) told me that it's a 10-point scale. So I'm pretty sure I did an accurate job. =)
Lastly...I got tagged! =( Here at Bob Jones University, we're having a campus-wide game of Tag. The rules are a little bit different than your normal playground version, but it's much, much cooler. There is no IT, and everybody's after everybody. It's totally awesome. And I got tagged out on my second day. Without tagging my partner. I still haven't even seen him. On the bright side, though, now I can walk around outside without my heart stopping every time someone walks up behind me. I can study in the Gazebo. I can eat lunch in the Snack Shop if I want to. I can swim. I can work out. I could rejoin the game for $5, but I think I'm just going to enjoy this freedom.
So yeah. Like duck liver paste on saltine crackers. Different, but good.
