During the Tuesday class period we had a speaker from Ole Miss who I thought was pretty interesting. I thought it was pretty neat how she was all the way in Mississippi and we were in Williston and she was able to talk to us over the IVN system. However I did not like when she was saying how the high temperature there was going to be in the 70’s and we had snow falling on the ground. I did learn some things that were interesting to me including how they say certain things after saying the word such as Muhammad and Allah. I also thought the part when she talked about the Qur’an. I found it was interesting how families have a family Qur’an and how people will not touch the Qur’an after they have drank alcohol. I didn’t know that Muslims would have daily prayers and pray up to five times a day. I did not really get into it that much because it was something that doesn’t relate to me to be honest but it was good to learn the basic outline of the religion.
On Thursday were supposed to listen to Ian talk about the country of Canada but we couldn’t get the video camera so we just decided to watch an episode of Sister Wives. When you first told us we were going to watch this series I kind of thought to myself oh great this is going to be a series about a bunch of women arguing. But after watching the first episode, this is a really crazy and good show! I thought it was crazy how the guy was able to deal with not one, not two, but three wives! I can see from the women’s perspective how being married to a guy with two other wives could be a plus. I think it would kind of be awkward for the children to technically have three moms. At the end of the episode they said the guy was going to soon have another wife! I am beginning to think this is the craziest guy on the planet, or the smartest, I am still trying to figure it out!
