Speaking of 2A03, it's so annoying how you constantly hear coughing in that lecture. And not just coughing, but HACKING and wheezing as if someone's dying. The chain reaction of coughs never stops. Even the professor had something to say about it today.

Oh it was a woman? I didn't see a face. Regardless; McClelland is about as stimulating as a tree stump covered in moss, the notes are in comic sans which make it even less likely for me to take them seriously, and the whole "I'll wait while you fill in the blanks that I made disproportionate to what I actually took out and not really talk about anything remotely interesting" thing is making me hate the 5:30PM class even more. And biology. |

Coherence - just in case you needed another reason to 'delve your head into a book'. |

You check books out of libraries? Are you from the twentieth century or something?

Off topic:
Meh, I really can't wait till they burn all those books and digitize everything.
Why should I wait until X amount of people finish and return their copies before I can use it?
If everything was digitize, one copy = unlimited users.
Embrace technology! It will only gives you cancer... |

I suppose so. Maybe one day I'll embrace what seems to be the true purpose of the library: a space to tell everyone within earshot about how drunk X individual got last night. |

What if the battery run out? I am afraid that would cause more trouble than mugsci. That is not something you want to mess with. |

I agree with you, Kendoon. McClelland is kind of awful. It's a little funny how he reads aloud the answers from the slides, stands blinking feverishly for a while, and then tries to convey the concept in his own words. This only makes matters worse, as he speaks so haltingly that he ends up confusing the majority of the class.
I hate how the notes are organized. You feel like a dull kid as you copy answers from the board. And yes, the Comic Sans font doesn't help at all. What's wrong with the Biology department at McMaster?

Plug it in with be my first thought.
To further enhance the battery life, we need to improve technology like e-Ink.
Trust me, once you see one in real life, you will  in your pants. Then complain about its disadvantage.. (but we won't get into that)
Proper utilization of technology can definitely fix everything. I have faith! |

There are some of us old-fashioned souls who love to check out books from the library and have a physical book in our hands to read and enjoy. It's quite sad how McMaster's libraries have become crowded places to eat and socialize.
