my teacher is nuts

Today my science professor thought it would be a great idea to give us her lecture on how to survive in the cold. She starts with the revelation that food is energy. Thank God I'm in college- how else would I know these things? I now know that I should eat to stay warm, I should sleep enough, and that I should overheat myself before I go outside. All these things will keep my immune system up so I don't get sick and consequently I will feel so much better!

Ok I know some of this sounds legit- but follow me for a second. This is my professor who takes 50 minutes to read her lecture notes- that are posted online, mind you- when it really only takes about 10. Naturally, I will be contributing to this blog often when I'm in this class. Not only because I am bored out of my mind, but also to update you all on her psychotic wanderings. If I receive an 88% or better on our first test, I only have to go to this class on Mondays. I can take all the quizzes online- as well as the final exam. Yes, you heard me right- online. Just as online as all the notes. Need I mention that she encourages us to work together so that we all will succeed- much as a "boat floats" instead of a curve? Finally! A teacher approves cheating! (Note- although she admits not to be a botanist, she finds it relevant to compare a plant to a fish as it breathes through gills!)

I'm worried that this class is actually real. That this college that I love so much can really pay a teacher like her. I feel like I should be offended. For truly this is an insult to the intelligence of everyone in this room. But I forget- stupid people are everywhere. And I'm not good at science. I just was expecting a teacher who would have more insight and not just complain about copyright laws.
