Art history class is really informative and all... but it's dull...
and tedious...
and it always runs overtime...
and the best bit about it is Norbert's accent (Norbert is our lecturer) and exaggerated modes of expression (similar to the movement of the blow up tube men often seen flailing their bodies and limbs simultaneously outside car sales businesses or football matches).
And his nose.
He has an excellent, rip-snorter of a nose.

In the wise words of genius/artist, Bruce Nauman,
“If I was an artist and I was in the studio, then whatever I was doing in the studio must be art.”
And when we need a break from all our pain and suffering, slaving away in the studios, we head down to Malthouse (the house of coffee, chai, tea, yo-yo's, brownies, procrastination, culture, wank, the most random assortment of background music ever compiled, financial loss, and awesomeness).
