Daylight saving(s), Da Vinci Code, and… solar flares
Tuesday is early day, and as usual I go to school early for maths. Well, starting from next week it won’t be like that any more! YAY! It’s not hurry day for me either, because the class has been moved to Wednesday afternoon.
Surprisingly, the maths scientist is actually very picky about words. He picked on whether it should be “daylight saving” or “daylight savings”, and I took the chance to mention RAS syndrome, and we had a great laugh about it.
Choosing to watch the Da Vinci Code movie during my spares probably wasn’t such a good idea. I was watching a movie in faith class, so that involved staring at light, and then I watched the Da Vinci Code movie after school, and then I was lampworking in the evening. Normally it’s bad enough with the solar flares, and then I was watching the two movies during the day. I think that’s why I have a headache now. (Well, it might actually be the carbon monoxide, but if that’s the case I’d be dead by now, right?)
The Da Vinci Code wasn’t that good, especially since it’s supposed to be suspenseful, and I’ve read the book so I knew the story. The good thing is that the scenery was beautiful, and just the fact that quite a lot of it was in French somehow made it a lot more interesting.
