Well the grades for last semester are finally posted. I got a B+ in Critical Thinking and a B in Sociology. Sociology is a welcome surprised considering I got a D+ on the first assignment. I recruited some smart people to help me with the follow-up report and managed to bring up my mark. Thanks Krista, Trish and all the other people I can’t think of right now!
Turns out that in the end, I will always be a ‘B’ student, which is fine by me. It takes a special kind of person to not strive to get that ‘A’ Grade. Or, at the very least, realize that it’s impossible and you should focus half of your efforts on socializing in the school system. Hello Frathouse! Actually, I have yet to find a Frathouse while on campus. Are they hidden away somewhere in Sandy Hill? I definitely remember going to a few Frat parties back in the day with Danny. This brings back a memory when I was waiting for the washroom and Danny comes out with a giant icicle in his hand. What the heck? He said someone passed it to him!
Bringing on The Heartbreak – Alright, this video ain’t too shabby. Standard rock band music video fare with shots of them performing. This was actually the more decent of them.
Pour Some Sugar on Me – This was definitely the cream of the crop. Everyone knows this song. So I expected an amazing video. What I received was Limburger cheese. The band appears playing in a house that is being demolished by women who are working in construction. They have sledgehammers with them, they have cranes, they have grubby old construction hats and boots, they are not a pretty sight. I guffawed at many a scene, especially when the building they were playing in was being destroyed and in one scene I’m pretty sure we saw a bag of flour fall from the ceiling (or was it sugar?) to emulate some dust. It fell into the category “It’s so bad, it’s good!” Highly recommended video to see your favourite Def Leppard in a new light.
