The Bane of My Existence

I have a test in Hymnology today at 8am. Yes, this class is as bad as the text title would suggest. It is a class surveying hymnody. Rest assured, these are not the cute, inspiring stories you hear of Johan so-and-so writing “Tis So Sweet” under the harshest of circumstances while curled up in the hull of a ship during an unsurvivable storm. The questions I will be answering today will be more along the lines of, “What was the pattern and metrical structure of the Geneva songs?” My motivation for actually attending this class tomorrow is that I know it will allow me to become a better person graduate.
