Learning

Well, nothing much happened today, just one thing I can remember, and it happened during Psychology.

We're playing Calabria's Jeopardy game and this question comes up for us guys. I don't remember what the answer to the question was (you know, he gives us the answer we have to come up with the question or term), but the answer was Personality. When Calabria reads it out, we are all familiar with it, although we're not sure exactly what it is (you know, you've got a good idea but you're not sure) so Tiny and I start thinking, seeing if we can come up with the term... and all of a sudden Rodrigo whispers "guys, isn't it learning?". There's silence in the room for about 5 seconds, then Tiny and I crack up and as soon as we tell Calabria he joins in. You can tell that Rodrigo hasn't learned anything in the past semester...

Old Fun

As today's happenings weren't that funny, then I'm gonna write about a Briggs moment. Here's some background information: we're in the softball exchange in Maracaibo (last year) and we've lost the first two games (out of three) and we're losing the third one. HOWEVER, we've got the chance to tie and go on for extra innings or even win it right there, as we've got a runner on second and the heart of the lineup is coming up to bat. Omar is on second.

So here starts the story. There's one out and the ball is hit towards the shortstop, Omar is stuck on second so the throw goes to first. It's a good throw so the runner is out... however, Omar decides to run for third, which isn't a bad idea, it's always good to test their arm, right? Well, that depends, if you're a fast runner then yeah, but if you're Omar then not. So well, the throw is made and you can see Omar running (more like walking in slow motion) and he's taken out on third by a mile. That's the game, we've been swept. Now that's not funny, is it? We've made a fool out of our beloved school CIC. But then we turn to Briggs and we can see his face starting to fill up with anger, and his vein in his neck starts to build up with blood (the famous vein). Then the expected comes. "bu...er... he... sh... JEEEEEEEEEEEESSUUUUUUUUUSSSS!!!!!!!!!" and Briggs almost shatters the clipboard with his bare hands. The Hulk is coming! And then you know, he loses control of himself (although he won't admit it) and this is nothing new, you've seen this before, but the funny thing is that he tells us that he's not mad, but he's clearly bothered by what has happened. Man, Briggs was SO mad it was scary... we thought that he would get a chair and smash it on Omar's back. And you know Omar, he acted as if he didn't care (well, he probably didn't care) and that made Briggs even madder. Ah, that was fun to watch, scary but good fun.
