For some reason I have not quite figured out, the crazy Russian woman asked me to stay a minute after class today, where she proceeded to ask me if I was bored in class. I have no idea how she formulated that (completely accurate) theory, but she mentioned that I was a very good student and a very "close reader" and that my reading and writing skills were very good. (Also completely accurate statements.)
So either she noticed that I have been doodling during class, or she picked up on my resigned tone when I answer questions, or maybe she genuinely sees from my latest paper (which I have yet to get back) that I'm more on the ball than everyone else.
Anyways, she asked me if I found class boring, because I read closely the first time and don't need to have it redone. What the hell did she expcet me to say to that? "Yes, your class is boring as fuck?" I was really tempted to say "Well, as I am probably the only one who acutally has read up to the secton we're at, yes I do find it a bit tedious," but I restrained myself.
It's like the cop that was doing a sobriety check one night. He asked if I was drunk. I mean, do they really expcet people to say yes to that? Did she really expect me to tell her her class was boring? It's like asking your husband if your dress makes you look fat. There's just no point in a question like that.
But it's funny that she noticed, in any case.
Then tonight I popped Abby's Star Wars Original Trilogy cherry, and a grand experience it was. She liked it. And she thinks Han is hot.
Yay!
great russians,
