I found that I remembered things best if I copied over my notes from a lecture-heavy class ASAP after the class was done. It gave me easier-to-read notes, and burned the info into my head better than the first time around.

I did this for lecture heavy, fact heavy classes (like Western Civilization). For Western Civ, my friend and I studied for exams by taking turns holding my notebook and prompting each other to recite, verbatim, my notes. I

I have a book of e e cummings poetry, not sure which one, but about half way through someone underlined every word of every poem. Not the whole line of poetry but each word seperately. It makes me wonder what that person was thinking.

Did your system involve recopying your notes with different colored pens?

Um...no. I'd just rip the five or so pages of scrawl out and then rewrite them on the next clean pages in the notebook. That history prof was notorious for giving a LOT of info in a fifty-minute class, and I had to recopy it pretty quickly to be able to interpret the messy handwriting. He didn't believe in textbooks, so 99 percent of his tests were from the lectures.

It makes me wonder what that person was thinking.

"Words. e e cummings uses words. Words are important. Each word is individually important. Because e e cummings chose each word."

Something like that?

If you're not changing airlines, I would think you could make a 30-minute transfer in Cinti. The terminal is relatively compact. If one of your flights is on the small regional jets, you might have to take a bus out to the outer terminal, and that would slow you down, but if it's all big Delta planes I think it would work.

Thanks flea! It's SFO-CIN then CIN-BOS so all big planes.

Here's a great celebrity quote:

Yes. Yes, you do.

Dear Administration,
Telling me that my room is going to be used for a Very Important Open House this weekend that requires us to Look Our Best at 1:15 on Friday is not helpful. Especially when you told me yesterday that my room was not being used. Especially especially when I have classes straight through the rest of the day and was hoping to duck out of here right at 3.

No love,
Kristin

P.S. How about you paint the wall with the peeling paint and clean the giant stains in my carpet first?

KTHNXBYE.

I just got the word "effulgent" on Free Rice. It was level 43.
