Work: Boring long day, too much to do :(
School: I had my first Environmental science class last night and in the first 10 minutes i nearly punched my teacher in the face... well not really but I did stand my ground. Okay, so you know how I have the iPad 2 and I bought specifically for school and business well, while the teacher is introducing the class she says "turn off all your electronic devices no screens on the table..." I still had both my cell and iPad in my bag. She goes on to say "I PREFER if you use paper and pen", She then noticed a guy who had his laptop out, which is pretty normal for college students, since we use them for notes and pretty much everything, she told him to put it away... you could tell the guy didn't really want to, as it is his academic tool. Well so he puts it away and the teacher asks " Does anyone have any questions?" So I raised my hand and said " Yeah, I do. Im planning on using my iPad to take notes and do my school work, so is it okat if i use it? because you said you PREFER to use paper and pen but some of us, like me, don't feel like buying a notebook and killing another tree when i have a perfectly good writting tool". She just looked at me and turned all red. I don't think anyone has ever questioned her. Well she goes on to say how she PREFERS and blah blah so I asked again, "Ok, So I can use it". She looks at me and was about to say something when I cut her off and said" Because i paid a lot of money for this to use here. in school. in all my classes." The teacher laughed and said oh well that must suck to buy something you don't need for this class... I cut her off again and said " Because if you don't let me use my iPad, I WILL BE UPSET AND I WILL HAVE TO BRING IT UP WITH THE DEAN AND WHOEVER ELSE IS IN CHARGE. She just turned bright red and said, well i prefer pen and paper but i will leave it up to you. Then she turned to the guy who had a laptop and asked him if it would be a problem if he didn't use his laptop and he said "well, i usually take all my notes on there and everything but... if you don't want me to use it then i guess..."
GAH. Like why did she make such a big deal about it. And why was that guy so chicken to say, hey lady this is my academic tool and if i don't want to use paper and pen i don't have to. Geeze. Isn't this an environmental science class?! Shouldn't she promote the use of laptops and what not instead of using paper?! Anyways... that was pretty much it. Other than that the class is alright. doesn't seem like its going to be hard.
When I got home Leesh came over and we watched Boondock Saint. One of my favorite movies of all time!
Kay well that is pretty much it. Can't wait for tonight! Leesh's early birthda BBQ!! woo hoo cupcakes! <3 haha
