  • Music: 'Fire In The Mountain' by Long Distance Calling
Tuesdays and I are not best of friends. With the exclusion of my very first semester of university when I only had classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, Tuesdays have been one of my least favourite days of the week. This semester is particularly tiring, as I have three lectures and one tutorial over the space of 9:30am to 5:45pm, and this wouldn't necessarily be so bad if one of those weren't so dull and if the other two, although enjoyable, weren't so mentally taxing and done by lecturers who go through everything in excruciating detail. They know their stuff and I love the lecturers, but different days would be nice.

But today was totally worth it. It's not every day that a regular lecture becomes a public lecture and you get to listen to a Justice of Israel's Supreme Court. Not just any Justice either, but the first Christian Arab permanently appointed to such a position. That was a pretty bloody awesome lecture. I very nearly rolled over and went back to sleep when I awoke this morning, but I'm quite glad I managed to find enough motivation to get up instead.

I'm such a generork, I know.
