So, did I tell you that we've already created nicknames for our lecturers?
Yes. It has happened... and it seems that every time, Deena is the only one who escapes the nicknaming process. Consider yourself lucky! :P So far we've had Professor Trelawney, Something Something Something Ironside, The Lobster and Jack Nicholson. Of course, I shouldn't name names, so I won't... Besides, I'm quite unsure of what some of their names are anyway! Whoops. :P
Anyway, back to the point. We, as humble journalists, have the delight of a three hour lecture on a Wednesday morning with the infamous Jack Nicholson. In this time, we have to sit in a massively crowded lecture hall to watch a documentary film and take notes on it. Why? Now, I'd love to be able to answer that question myself. It's like sitting in a cinema and scribbling down the film plot whilst perching on the edge of seats that are about 10 times more uncomfortable than the ones you would find in a typical screen at your local Cineworld. Yes, they really are that horrible! So, as you can imagine, numb bum syndrome takes hold after about 20 minutes of sitting on these beauties.
Right at this second, I am wrapped up comfortably in my brown animal print duvet, and I know that I will NOT want to move when I wake up in the morning... >.< Okay, so this lecture doesn't start until 10, so I get a little bit of a lay-in, I guess!
Oooh, and another rant. The Lobster put us through an antagonising presentation about quotations in our Feature Writing lecture today... Which he had already presented to us at the beginning of this year! But, here's the worst part... IT STILL CONTAINED THE SAME GRAMMATICAL ERRORS THAT IT DID LAST TIME HE PRESENTED IT! I shot him down in a rather embarrassing way last time, especially because of his poor ellipsis use. That man CANNOT use an ellipsis properly! He either uses two dots or more than four. How hard is it to just use THREE and leave it at that?! Argh! You know what really grinds my gears? THE LOBSTER! >:(
...Phew. I needed to get that out. It's been at the back of my mind all day. I really cannot stress my dislike for him enough!
Good night, chumps. :)
