WWCD? (What Would Cthulhu Do?) No, for the last time, I'm not a cultist!

Almost there...Steady...

Hot damn, but I feel good. Today I finished all of my exams, an event that has brought me much happiness. I only have my public speaking presentation tomorrow, and if I do say so myself, I think I've written the best speech in the class. Fact of the matter is that I possess a better command of the English language than just about anybody else in the class. I could write circles around them. And I think I did. We just have to practice it tonight, and then we'll be set for it. Oh yeah!

Ich Bin Eine Ubermensch...Und Eine Total Idiot

Well, the past few days have been sort of weird. Monday night, I went over to Aaron's place for shots. We had found a book of recipes for mixed shot drinks, so we decided to try them out. Let's just say we over-did it. I ended up puking twice. I hate that. Plus, moving made me nauseous. Obviously, I didn't drink enough water. As it was, I ended up missing my Public Speaking group meeting at noon (I feel bloody aweful about that), and was feeling like shit until about two in the afternoon. Deck ended up even worse than me, though. He ended up suffering from a hangover-and-influenza cocktail. More vomit hurled forth from him than I had ever thought possible for one man. He was so dehydrated that he couldn't even hold down water. I ended up spending the day nursing him back to health. Needless to say, the guy is in poor shape. He's doing better today, but he's only at about 80%.

The good news is that I had my first final today in Contemporary Philosophy. I did a bunch of studying for it, and felt really good about it. Afterwards, Brittany, Logan and I went out for drinks and pool at Boston's. I'll be up front about this: I suck at pool, and Brittany and Logan totally owned my booty. At any rate, it was fun. We were able to unwind from a tough test, and just enjoy a good brew while we were at it. Interestingly, there is actually a rule at Oxford in England in which the professor is responsible for providing a pint of ale to his students before each exam. I wonder if I could get away with that here...Nah. Probably not. Oh well.
