History of Film, Warren Writing, Physics, Math

Could somebody tell me why we have over 100 pages of reading due on Wednesday? It's kind of ridiculous. I'm strongly considering switching to Pass/No Pass for it...although I'll probably end up just dealing with whatever letter grade I get...

The teacher is pretty funny. He goes into all these abstract features of film though and talks about the evolution of how film became a primarily musical form of art, evolving from literature and then painting. I still kind of have no idea what that means, but whatever. I thought the class would cover more about the actual history of film, like if it were an AP Film History course. Oh wellz...

So I get assigned a midterm paper topic this Thursday. I'll determine from the topic if I want to make it Pass/No Pass then. 

Warren Writing is definitely my toughest class. I'm so bad at essay writing now, it's ridiculous. I really need to shape up to compete with the kids in my class, especially my suitemate Justin...I'll be pretty happy if I pull through with higher than a B. 

Physics is probably going to be the dark horse of my classes. There should be no reason for me to not get an A, but anything can happen. The quizzes are multiple choice, which is a little disconcerting. However, I don't have to show work, so that's a plus. I learned this stuff before too, but I don't know if I'll be able to maintain my 95% in that class...we'll see though.

Math shouldn't be too difficult. It's definitely easier than physics, but if I keep making careless mistakes like I've been doing I'll probably get a B or something in the class. It sucks. I just hope I did well on my midterm...

I'll teach you how to write if you're bad at it! I'm gonna start teaching writing to kids at Blackford. Cool huh? Mhm, thought so.
