That's what I thought at first too.

It almost seems that it works best when you let it become like a trance of sorts.

Kinda like Krautrock or Space Rock. Except with more bass and drums. Smile

Fine, except I just realized I need to read about 150 pages over the next two days. Cry

Well, if it's a good book, it's cool.
But we usually don't read good books at school, don't we? LOL

Some of my homework involves making a track of music using clips from other stuff and stringing them together in a program.  That part will be fun.  Unfortunately, some of my homework also involves doing astrophysics.

Well it is from my text books, I know that at least half of the material I need to read is going to be extremely dry and utterly boring; the first chapters of a Business and an Intro to Computers book. I may just do the online quiz for the computers book before I do any reading, and if I score high enough I just won't read it.

I'm incredibly envious.

This semester kinda sucks for me; my classes aren't that great, 3 of them are upper-level Accounting classes in specific disciplines of Accounting that I don't particularly enjoy (I already had Tax and that's where I want to go, I think). Well, it doesn't help that all my teachers except 1 just aren't great at all.

I like my philosophy book though: so far I've found 4 Calvin and Hobbes comics. Thumbs Up

I think that my music class, astrophysics, and German II are the only three of my classes I'm truly going to enjoy.  Well, possibly my Literary Humor class as well, but definitely not microbiology.

It's funny, a large amount of comics I like seem to explore philosophy in some way.

I only enjoy one, Management 300 (Organizational Behavior). It deals with some of Human Resources, and I'm not even going into HR.

Jeez Salty... that is one heck of an eclectic schedule!

Astrophysics
German
Music
Literary Humor
Microbiology

Wow.

Microbiology sounds like something I'd like to read about, but taking a course on it seems excruciating.

Depends on how well the stuff turns out. LOL

Wow.

Yeah, the astro/micro are both required for the General Science major, 2-3 years of a foreign language are required for every major, and the Music class is required for the Music Technology minor.  The only one I'm taking for no reason is the Literary Humor.
