So, we go to our History class.

Some left at fifteen minutes.

Most left at twenty.

Only about four remained by thirty.

I was one of the sragglers who waited forty.

Mainly because I had nothing else to do, granted. But still....she's a normally punctual professor. I wonder what happened.

Perhaps she was out making her own history?

She forgot to mention the field trip to the Parthenon and wound up going by herself?
smiley - cool
The spirit of the ages caught up with her?
smiley - wah
It was a test to see if the class would use their time wisely to do something socially relevant, or just fritter it away on trivial pursuits?
smiley - erm
There was a sale on timepieces down at Tesco?

Well, as it turns out, she was ill. She'd apparently told someone to email the class, but that email never got to us.

As a result, the quiz scheduled for today (over the 400+ page novel "L'Assamoir", of which I've read maybe 200 pages) needed to be replaced by the previous lesson's lesson. The quiz, meanwhile, has become a take-home quiz. So, while I can use my book all that I want to, it means that I can't get away with rationalizing things and will actually be expected to cite examples and use quotes and things.

Mixed results, but I think that I like 'em.smiley - winkeye
