- "The point of this exercise is to see whether our doots match up."
- "These are the first notes of the rest of your life."
- "That sounded like one of those lava lamps..."
- (Something about daylight savings and circadian rhythms) "Circadian, cicadian, I was close...I come awake every seventeen years."
Finished the Anthro paper! Yaaaaaay!!! Now I just need to actually write the history paper...study for Antho and Econ tests...write an English paper... *sigh*
We have a pre-registration session for English majors tomorrow morning. 20th Century Irish Lit., here I come! I think I'm also gonna get me some advising from Prof. Smith tomorrow, although since I already know what classes I'm taking, it's not as helpful as it could be. But whatever. I should probably start taking English classes in a way that'll fulfill the requirements for six out of the nine sections of literature/time, etc. My goal is to get out of this school without taking a class on anything before 1700.
See, we have these nine sections of literature, and we have to take at least one class in each of six of them:
1. Criticism and theory, genre studies, film studies, thematic courses
2. Old and Middle English
3. Renaissance and seventeenth-century English
4. Eighteenth-century English
5. Nineteenth-century English
6. Modern Anglophone literature, excluding that of the United States (i.e. Irish, Canadian, etc.)
7. Shakespeare
8. American lit pre-1900
9. American lit post-1900
(Plus four more English courses in any of the above eras and/or creative writing courses.)
Oh, yeah. None of this pre-1700 business for me, or if I have to have it for some reason, then I'll take care of it at Exeter. At least there you get field trips to the Globe Theatre and stuff. 18th century English is bad enough. I think if I were to specialize in a particular period, I'd probably go for 1800-1920, with British stuff in the first half of that and American stuff in the second half. And oh, look, that's pretty much the period that my advisor concentrates on, except all American lit. God, we were matched so perfectly. :-)
