First day of college today... It's pretty snazzy.
It's like heaven:
I get the rare privilege of getting up early and rushing 20 miles accross town. Then I get to sit in a class and learn about different ways humans deal with being human (Intro to Anthropology). Then I get five hours off, and then I get to go and learn about humans deal with non-human behavior in humans (General Psychology). Tomorrow I get to go and learn how humans express the intircacies of being human (English). Then I have a class after that about how humans use computers to augment their human condition.
Starting in a month, I have to get up early on Tuesdays as well, because I have to go to a class on various ways that desert-dwelling non-humans deal with not being human (Docent training at the zoo).

THEN...

Next semester, I get to get up a little later, start some of my mornings with classes on what it means to be human (Intro to Philosophy), how humans deal with being human without killing other humans (Intro to Ethics), how various groups of humans have dealt with behing human by blaming their humanity on someone else (Religions of the World), and eventually I get to learn how humans have dealt with being humans by creating organizations that allow them to blame being human on other humans (Political Science)

Where is the World History course? And Geography?
Sounds like fun. Well, not all of it. But most of it does anyway. How early is early? Is it terrible? >_<

By the end of all that, trolls' bane, you should know enough about humans to be able to become one!

The weather turned cold quite sudden yesterday. It didn't shape up today. I guess it's Autumn eh? *sings along with her Disney and musical music playlist*

"And we're back on M.O.O.T. 102,2 with the Moots playing this Hollies tune especially for Acally..."

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry her
Acally ain't heavy, she's a Mooter

So on we go

Her welfare is of my concern
No burden is she to bear
We'll get there

For I know
She would not encumber me
Acally ain't heavy, she's a Mooter

If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another

It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share

And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
Acally ain't heavy, she's a Mooter

She's a Mooter
Acally ain't heavy, she's a Mooter.

Hey, Shesa B.
Hey, Shesa B.
When we were at school, our games were simple.
I played a janitor, you played a monitor.
Then you played with older boys and prefects.
What's the attraction in what they're doing?
Hey, Shesa B, what's your game now?
Can anybody play?
Hey, Shesa B, what's your game now?
Can anybody play?
You were always something special to me -
quite independent, never caring.
You lost your charm as you were aging.
Where is your magic disappearing?
chorus
You're so, so like a woman to me. (so lke a woman to me)
So, so like a woman to me. (like a woman to me)
chorus
People live and learn but you're still learning
You use my mind and I'll be your teacher.
When the lesson's over, you'll be with me.
Then I'll hear the other people saying.
chorus
Shesa B, Shesa B, Shesa B

Reminds me of having to drag around that heavy volume for geology. I was never happier to have a locker in school...

Still, better than a thick volume with a detailed description of the French Revolution, eh?

You know, in the description of the very video you've linked to, you can read that the tune is called Green Onions, by Booker T and MGs

Actually, if you read the word 'human' too many times in one paragraph, it begins to lose all meaning.

Good luck to everyone going back to school! My course doesn't start until October, which is good, since I don't know if I've got my grant to cover tuition yet or not. If I don't get it, I'm in trouble.

Next week the primary school I work at reopens, though. Yay!
