Now fifteen days has passed since my college campaign has started. I was half waken up at six, so getting up at seven was easier than figuring out what's one plus one. I got dressed and ran downstairs for breakfast.
After breakfast, we left the house and I arrived to school at 8:15am. For the first time, we had to wait outside the classroom until the door was open. No, my instructor wasn't the one opening the door, someone else did. He arrived five minutes after when everybody was waiting.
We started the day, by receiving our essay question, that will be due in one month. I'm choosing between two topics. Those are, "Was The First World War Inevitable?" and "How Was World War One Different From Any Previous Wars?" Unlike the Canadian Studies topic, this was easier to handle. Later on the class, we had a lecture on the Russian Revolution and how Lenin and the Bolsheviks came to power. As well as the Russian civil war and how both sides fought an extremely brutal and a bloodshed war. As far as I remembered, the Red who were the Bolsheviks military, defeated the Royalist, AKA the Whites. Later in the class, we were given propaganda from the past and had a group discussion on it. That was pretty much the class for the day.
In Canadian Studies 1110 today, we spend the first hour and fifteen minutes watching "In Bed With An Elephant" while we had to do questions based on the film. After the film, we took a ten minute break and then had a discussion about the questions based on the film. We didn't have time to discuss the answers for the readings we had to do last class, but we will be doing that next class.
In Mandarin class today, we didn't get our quiz back but that didn't matter anyways. We learned how to bargain further and a few new words. We also started our presentation on bargaining. However the class wasn't really prepared, so our instructor decided to move it on Tuesday.
After class, I went to the student union building to get some free food. I ate a hotdog and grabbed two bags of chips and left. I waited for a friend at the skytrain station to get my textbook back. After, I went home to watch drama and then started doing my readings. At 5pm, I started playing Age Of Empire 2 with a friend. I had been playing Age Of Empire 3 with him so we were pretty rusty at the game. My main problem was that, I forgot how to rebuild my farms after my villagers finished farming. This was a serious issue during the game, because my food resource was so scarce that I couldn't train enough troops. Soon the enemies gang banged me and I was forced to resign, leaving my friend against the two A.Is. He was soon defeated as well, for what reason I don't know. I urged him in the game, before I lost that he should start training military units. I guess he didn't take my advice, but oh well.
After the game, I ate dinner and then started doing some research for my Canadian Studies essay. Now I have a easy history essay in my way as well, I wonder how I should deal with the situation.
Hockey tomorrow!! And then hockey pool draft on Saturday! But right now, I'm going to focus on my work.
