A busy day, having woken up on little sleep from the night before, I woke up, and just jumped out the door trying to get to school. I got there a little later than I would have liked, but nothing too bad. When I did get there, we basically had a lecture about Norman Foster, the best architect in Britain today, and to some extent Richard Rogers. It was fascinating and all, and at the end of the class we caught up and reviewed the semester so far. I was happy when the class was over, but must confess I’ll miss Reuter, he is the most interesting fellow I think I’ve yet met here. An interesting note was that he showed us a good many of his own designs by the end of the course and it was great to see the things he worked on. He did a lot of designs of things pertaining to education, and designed a university library near Bath. He also designed some desks for privacy at schools too. It was great to see this, and he also showed us his house, in East Anglia I think, this was an interesting place to see too, but it helped me to understand how Reuter works. Following this class, I tried to go print my paper for him, but it was too busy to do that.

So, I went and bought some food, and came back, studied a bit for the quiz and tried to prep myself for the presentation I had to give. I was luckily more or less able to do this, but not to the extent that I had hoped. Finally the hour came and my prof came in, and distributed our quizzes. This was actually okay, although it was not as good as I had hoped it would be, but it was brief and it was finally over. After this, we had to give our presentations, and being in the front of the class as I always am I had to go first. This was good in a way, because everyone had a power point presentation, and I only had one picture of the Australian flag on my computer to show people to point out the Crux constellation. Mine was not very technical, or not as technical as he would have wanted but that sort of jargon bores me senseless nowadays. Anyway, after me everyone else went and gave their presentations, which I really could not get into, and eventually class ended so I was happy about that. After class I left for home and when I finally arrived, I just hung out mostly, and I was happy to find that my Rammstein CD had arrived. I opened it and listened to it... pure gold, the best one yet. I was exceedingly happy to have bought it and it really made me emote quite a lot listening to the words and songs.

Following the careful burning of this great CD to my computer, I proceeded to eventually write my paper for my Classical Music course, to much delight, I finally found myself done with it, though not to my satisfaction by the night’s end... and got to bed quite late as a result, which will play an important part in the next exciting episode of Jason’s London Journal!
