Anaphora and Hercules

The time has come. The time of utter torment and pain. The time in which you claim your bed sheets have claimed you as one of their own, so you cannot leave....yes. It is Finals week! So here is a list of all my finals with my thoughts on them....

FLANG 276 - Teaching a Foreign Language (Completed) - 98% about Spanish teachers 1.9% French and German teachers,    0.1% relevant to me....well at least some use came out of this class. I can say "tengo dos  manos!" So if there is ever a Spanish serial killer with only one hand and the police come after me, I can say TENGO DOS MANOS, and then I will be free from all charges. Disclaimer. If you are a Spanish serial killer that looks identical to me, please cut off one of your hands. Thanks.

Latin 301 - Classical Latin Poetry - BWAAAAAAA. Why are you so long?! I see no point in my life where Latin rhetoric will be useful. I see no use of it.  I see it as the vain of my existence. I guess I could be like the guy in Disney's Hercules he stands around asking "Do you want to by a sun dial?" but in my coat will be The Aeneid and Metamorphoses and I can creepily stand around and say "Do you want me to point out some anaphora?!" Disclaimer. This section does contain literary anaphora

MCOM 320 - Writing for Business -So, you think it is nice to give two finals for this class? In case you didn't know MCOM, I stink at math. I did not appreciate your "written final portion." Luckily, I actually paid attention in elementary school, so I can tell the difference between an adverb and an adjective.

REL C 236 - The Doctrine and Covenants pt 2 - I will not be commenting on the exam for I fear I may be turned into a pillar of salt...

HIST 364 - Utah History - Dear Utah, as a Texan, I do not give a single flip about your history. You are weird and surprising liberal. When I start teaching in the beautiful Lone Star, they might actually laugh at me for taking Utah History. They might as well rename you Indians and Mormons. However, I did appreciate the class....if it was not for you, I may not have been able to compare my horrible March Madness scores with my classmates.

MUSIC 324 - University Band (Completed) - A final based on my overwhelming desire to yell to the guy next to me "PLEASE, DON'T PLAY!" At least we played the same music we did in high school. Wait?! Am  I saying this college band was playing high school level music. Yes, yes I am. But due to this final, I was stuck with the trio Sam M. and others would play.
