I got approximately 7 hours of sleep last night, and I could not keep my eyes open during Journalism class today. It's not that I didn't get enough sleep because I had anthropology later in the afternoon, and I was awake and attentive.
We were covering printmaking, apprentices, newsletter's audience, Ben Franklin, you know the most interesting things happening to journalism in the 1720's. While some students were super intrigued on who wrote these articles and how much people had to pay for a subscription to a newsletter, I was struggling to write a full sentence without closing my eyes. Is it bad that I'm not interested in the history of journalism? At first I figured it was normal to be bored, but it seemed like the professor had just told us that Ben Franklin rode a unicorn from Boston to Philadelphia. If that was true, I'd be much more excited, but alas it is not.

Where's your Benergy?!?! When someone mentions Ben Franklin you should be bolt upright and ready to learn. What kind of Philadelphian are you?
I feel your pain though. The history of Acupuncture has ghosts, and evil ancestor worship and spirits inhabiting your body through the 6 stages (almost as cool as Unicorns). Let's not forget Acupuncture goes from bloodletting to stabbing with bamboo splinters over a few hundred years. Always a crowd pleaser. Still, I've never gotten past the 3rd chapter in the history book "Medicine in China," so I'm gonna say don't sweat it.
