I went ahead and slept in for my morning class. He doesn't do much more than illustrate concepts that he explains in his own book, so it won't do me any harm. But then my psychology professor said that since he had covered everything in this week's chapter, we can take Friday off! That's awesome, I really hate driving back to campus when school is getting out and right after I just got settled in after getting home from my morning lecture. So today went pretty good.
Yesterday I had my first chess session with the kids. They're a little rambunctious, but they're really enthusiastic about playing and seem to get the concepts really well. I've only gone over the basics, like how the pieces move and certain rules that have to be followed, but I think at least a few in this group are capable of playing competitively against people who rank above 1800 someday.
