Where is the Fire At? 1st in Cross Country!!!!
Oh, the days of lounging around during break are over. I finally have daily obligations I need to attend to, and lots and lots of reading to do for classes. On Monday we didn’t have our regularly scheduled Bible study because the guys leading it caught, something along the lines of the flu (swine flu…cough) On
Tuesday in Classical Rhetoric we talked about Enthymeme. I made the point that in humor Enthymeme can be misunderstood because it leaves too much up to the audience member to interpret. This for some strange reason was translated as “Andre, has no sense of humor”, which doesn’t surprise because we then watched the Daily Show which wasn’t all that funny. This week in track we have it off, so I have been working on my hand-eye coordination by playing racket ball. Let’s just say I am really bad at racket ball. That evening after my Student Senate meeting I came back to the Beta house. The house looked as if there was a strobe light party going on inside but to my “amazement” someone managed to bang up against the fire alarm, triggering it. Good thing it wasn’t too cold outside because we were out there for a while. On Wednesday I was glad that we were finally moving on to different topics in my classes. In Philosophy of Logic we moved from derivations to sentence analyzation (which was a blessing). That afternoon I ran in the IM Cross Country Race. I at first didn’t want to go all out but I decided to help out Beta and run well. And run well is what I did! Jimmy Kervin and I took the lead for Beta. Together we began to slowly overtake other teams. Although the faculty “won” the race. The Beta house came in first over all because we had so many top finishers. Since the highlight of my week was bringing the trophy back to our house, I hope the rest of the week can be just as exciting.
