Boring damned people. All over the earth. Propagating more boring damned people. What a horror show. The earth swarmed with them.

I keep saying it over and over again but I cannot wait until spring!

Next quarter I think I am going to end my undergraduate career with three months of  artsy fartsy classes such as Acting, Gay and Lesbian Literature, The Philosophy of Sex and Love, and Critical Approach to Poetry

Erin, I’m taking the same approach with my schedule next quarter. Right now I’m leaning toward Creative Nonfiction Writing, European Studies, a journalism independent study and a theater or art class.

critical approach to poetry is like a junior high english class, but the people are even dumber. DO NOT take it unless you want to waste a quarter learning how to pronounce your own name. i also learned what a metaphor is. seriously, i took this class because i thought it sounded awesome and it’s just…so, so disappointing.

maybe it’s just my professor.  but it is MIND-NUMBING.

I agree completely, critical approach to poetry is mind-numbing (but an easy A+), I even had a great prof, but she had to dumb it down for everyone else in the class except for a handful. ALL creative writing classes have been beneficial to me however and Emily- I am planning on taking a non-fiction this spring too! Also Erin, is your philosophy of sex and love online? because I have a few friends in that now and it seems like an outdated joke. I would be down to take an art class this spring, is art in your life (or whatever) being offered, yea?!

I love you
For your little,startled,thoughtless ways,
For your ponderings,like soft dark birds,
And when you speak ‘tis a sudden sunlight.

I love you
For your wide child eyes,and fluttering hands,
For the little divinities your wrists,
And the beautiful mysteries your fingers.

I love you.
Does the blossom study her day of life?
Is the butterfly vexed with an hour of soul?
I had rather a rose than live forever.

“You see I think everything’s terrible anyhow, ” she went on in a convinced way. “Everybody thinks so—the most advanced people. And I KNOW. I’ve been everywhere and seen everything and done everything.” Her eyes flashed around her in a defiant way, rather like Tom’s, and she laughed with thrilling scorn. “Sophisticated—God, I’m sophisticated!”

-Daisy Buchanan (The Great Gatsby)
