The past two days were pretty good.<br /><br />Sunday was my day to finally attack the bulk of my summer reading. (Gee, sciura, you think you're a bad procrastinator.) Here's what I had:<br /><br />-I finally finished <i>How To Read Literature Like A Professor</i>, most of which I'd already read. It was a very good, very interesting book. The author used humor well and the points he made were quite useful.<br /><br />-I started and finished <i>Freakonomics</i>, which was also a quite good book, despite my disagreements with parts of it. The stuff the authors wrote about really, really made you think, which I like, and they tackled interesting questions.<br /><br />-I started and got through 5 chapters of <i>All The King's Men</i>, which puts me a hair over half done. It shouldn't be too bad; I'll knock the rest out tonight. It moves slowly at times, but overall it's a good, entertaining read.<br /><br />Also on Sunday, I went to our block party, which went well. Plus, I watched the Red Sox thoroughly destroy the White Sox, 11-1, en route to completing a 4-game sweep in which the '04 champs outscored the '05 champs 46-7 and scored ten runs or more in each game. And the Yankees lost! 7-and-a-half, baby!!<br /><br />Today, I read more of ATKM (see above), then brought stuff to school, which was helpful. I also got my situtation with journalism figured out (yeyeyey!!!) and helped Mr. White with some stuff. <br /><br />Then we had our match against Heights. <br />My round was good: two doubles, four bogeys, two pars, and a birdie on 6 to shoot 42, with 15 putts (good), 1 fairway (bad), and 2 greens (meh). <br />The scores: Shaker 174 (Bruell 38, Orr 42, Williams 52, Cowett 42, <s>Cross 62</s>, <s>Tuttle 58</s>)<br />Cleveland Heights 190 (45, 46, 47, <s>56</s>, <s>58</s>, 52). <br />That's a good win for us, 'specially since we lost to them in the tournament a couple weeks ago. Also, it's our best score (out of two), and breaking 175 is important and good for us; if we could get under 170, we can win most of our matches. (That'd mean, probably, four scores in the 40s or better.)<br /><br />Cras, schola incipiet. Gaudeo, quod paro et meos amicos/meas amicas videbo.<br /><br />-fin-
