IT'S A TRAP!!

Ok, obvious joke done, it is interesting to see the occasional detail of how life used to be. The sounding of a gong, for example, to indicate when a given class period was over. I remember when I was in school there was an electric buzzer that was sounded over the PA system. How did your school do it?

Funny thing: while recording this, I thought I was doing an unusually good job of it, yet in edit, it was probably the single most error-riddled recording I have made to date. Isn't it weird how it can seem so right while you're doing it, and only in review be determined to be so wrong? Most of the errors were of such a trivial nature that if you aren't reading along with the text, you'd never know there was an error, using 'a' instead of 'the' (or vice versa) kind of mistakes, but I do read along with the text while I'm editing, so I am aware of them myself. I do sometimes leave an error or two like that in a recording just because I can't be bothered, but when there are so many, you just gotta fix them. What a bother!
