In Earth Science
I’ve recently started this tumblr thingy…
Perhaps the only time I will post is during my less interesting classes, like Earth Science. The rundown: she goes on and on about erosion, weathering, soil deposition, etc. but what it basically boils down to is, “dirt naturally falls down hills,” or “rivers can carry rocks downstream, but eventually they get stuck and don’t move for a while.” Basic science is just really putting terms on things that we already know. If I wanted to study medicine or something, it would probably be more interesting, but at the basic level, I think I’ll spend my time posting pointless paragraphs on this thingy.
Danny is sitting here next to me, texting on his phone. I guess he doesn’t much care for answering questions about friction during erosion either. Wow, until I wrote it down, I never had realized how cynical my brain is regarding this lady’s teaching style. Oh shit, she just asked the class what the “500-year flood” was, and she looked right at me. Hopefully she thinks I was typing my profound thoughts about dirt… rolling down hills.
Ryan has his notes out and pen in hand. He’s rubbing his chin and looking at the pillar. I guess he’s not interested either.…
Ok well I feel like this has been beneficial to my life, and to whomever’s life is reading this post. Maybe I’ll leave a more meaty entry later on.
