Yesterday was a considerably better and less-tired day. I had my tutorial with Colin who is, as he was last week, fantastic and very friendly and I think I've been blessed with excellent profs and TAs. We watched a bit of a film called Ikwe which was about Native relations with British colonists. Yes, I have somehow been tricked into taking Canadian history. Haha joking aside, our course is mostly centered on the Brits.
Today's been pretty fab. I got my Greek quiz back - 93% FTW! I hope I can maintain marks like that all year hahaha.... imagine? Humanities tutorial was entertaining. We talked about Theogony and Works and Days a bit more before going into Hymn to Demeter, which I rather thoroughly enjoyed. Fisher was describing the Eleusinian Mysteries at one point and I asked if they were comparable to the Bona Dea, which lead us going off on a tangent about Clodius Pulcher's infiltration of the ceremony when Pompeia Sulla and Aurelia Cotta headed it on behalf of Caesar... good times! I love that Clodius!
I've got that ridiculous discussion group in twelve minutes. It's not so ridiculous but I really don't want to go. I want a bit more of a break haha. Though I'd probably just waste my time anyway.
This weekend I've got some hardcore general study to do. I'm still a bit iffy on the Latin declensions... and as for the Greek declensions... all I can say is, "Hahaha... NO."
