FU to the TURE

Its 9:30am on a Tuesday morning, Dexter, my robot servant opens the blinds of my newly equipped F175 3000 Hover Craft Dorm room near the Southlake Village residents. Unlike most freshman here, I have my own room which comes with a deluxe S5000 shower with sauna, deluxe 8520 king size bed with double padding and a full size working kitchen with service 24/7. As Dexter wakes me up and takes me to the bathroom to shower, brush my teeth and pee and picks out my clothes I’m going to wear; he is also preparing my usual for breakfast, which consists of the FGCU waffles and hash browns.
Getting up for class is extremely tedious; it consists of turning the TV on to channel 573 and watching your professor talk to you, but some days there is no need to wake up and watch the TV… you just Tivo the lesson for the day and sleep in or just enjoy the day.

In the tutorial “The Skunk Ape” I felt like I pretty much knew most of what they were explaining. I honestly lost interest and found it kind of boring/repetitive. The activities they had were helpful and kept me paying attention for a bit. This would be good for students just learning how to use the database.
I knew how to use the database already because I had Emily Vallier last semester and we had a librarian come in and show us how to use and then we were assigned a paper using the database.
