Usually I like having a small (5 students) Latin class, as we get to work together rather closely and all receive plenty of individual attention from the Magister. It was excruciatingly personal today, though. Stapleton can react to a student's infractions as if he were wronged by one of his own children. I received some of his wrath today, though I think that as a result we both better understand the matter (he his wayward student, I my low B on an minor test). The other issue will almost certainly be more disturbing.
St. Valentine's Day returns bearing nothing remarkable. No ethereal puffs of romance cloud my life's blue sky (roffles, look how cynical I can pretend to be). I will, however, seize the occasion of this most cordial holiday to direct the reader to a few minutes' entertainment: Ddautta by SamBakZa, a well animated Korean Flash movie concerning the perils of interspecies romance.
