Brilliant Idea

[Insert Sarcasm Here]
Hey, I've got an idea. Lets discuss the surplus of voice and the way it creates aesthetic effects in this 
piece. Try and keep your responses at 2,500 words please! 







[Passages, by Theresa Hak Kyun Cha]

I apologize for the numerous posts about how much I hate these essays. I promise it will end soonish. All that separates me from freedom is 8,000 words. 


On a happier note, Taylor comes back this week. We have plans to finally go to Stonehenge and Bath. And of course go celebrate the Royal Wedding, duh.

Now for something completely unrelated. Glen sent me this as he's "writing" his essay. And I laughed. Hard. I think my lack of sleep and delusional mind might have something to do with it, but I hope it makes you laugh as well.

Killing Time

You know, because I have nothing else to do while I'm writing a 3,500 word essay.


Wait, this might explain why it's not done yet....

Face Palm

I spent hours at the library today researching phonology and voice and meaning in poetics. After 4 hours of research, I realized I still had no idea what I was reading and that there was no way I would ever be able to write a 3,000 word essay on it. So I changed my essay topic, face palm. 4 hours of research and note taking down the drain. 


Library round 2 tomorrow, yay...

School work, boo

This weekend was another great one. I spent last week doing a whole lot of nothing, mostly because I've been putting off my essays. I spent a great Sunday with Taylor and unfortunately he had some last minute flight changes and flew out to AZ today. After dropping him off at the airport, I took a super long nap. And I finally forced myself to sit down and pick my first topic for one of my essays. For the next week, my ONLY focus is on the surplus of voice in poetics and music and analyzing and discussing the treatment of voice in a piece I studied this semester, awesome huh? My goal is to finish as much as possible in the next 2 weeks, then I'll have plenty of time to go visit new places!

Oh, and I've finally reached the point where the mean April Fool's Day joke that Taylor played on me is funny, took me a couple of days... but he somewhat made up for it last night with a nice home-cooked meal, oh yeah.

Hope your weekends' were marvelous!
