I'm Dreaming of a White January

Yep, it snowed again in Vancouver last night. I'm cautiously optimistic that this means that class will be cancelled. I mean, it's not much snow, just a skiff, really, but this is the West Coast!

The first week back to class went ok. I'm in six classes, and I think it might be a bit more week to week work this term, as opposed to all weighted in one or two papers. The worst thing is that once a month I have class Friday evening from 6 to 9, and then all day Saturday. The first one was this past weekend. Added to that, I have nine hours of class in twenty four hours from Monday to Tuesday. The bright side to all this is that once Tuesday morning is over, it means that the bulk of class is done for the week, and I can get on with the reading. My favourite class so far is Christian Ethics. The professor is a sessional, so he is not a regular instructor at the school. He spends most of class teaching us something, or explaining a concept, and then telling us either why he disagrees with it, or why we might want to disagree with it. He said this week that running screaming from class would be an ethical response, if we could justify it, and if one of us were to do that, and write a paper, he would consider it for credit in the class. No one took him up on it.
