Thoughts on the first day of class.

Well so far the quarter seems to be going well. I must say that the one class I have had so far is going well... We received very important information such as the syllabus and discovered some of the pet peeves, likes and dislikes of the instructor. 

His presentation while not lacking in information also had an underlying pull of humor which tends to help one stay awake. You don't want to be the one kid that is suddenly brought back to the realm of consciousness by the low rumblings of laughter and be the last one to laugh because you were sleeping through the punch line. People might mistake that for you just being slow and "not getting" the said punch line and then you have to ask someone to repeat the joke and its never the same when you have to tell it a second time and then nobody is laughing anyway so its kinda awkward if you laugh and then they figure that you "must" be the slow one at which point the joke is on you.... 

So its a good thing to have humor in the agenda so you don't slip off to take twenty blinks.
