Remember that time when weekends were the small margins at the end of the week when your time/work ratio changed, allowing you to slack off for at least one night? I do, I miss it terribly.

I love my creepy neighbour...he's started to hide in the bushes and watch us and the girls upstairs (more certainly the girls upstairs). How do I know this? He told me he saw me put the trash out the other night whilst hiding. He is certainly looking to hook up with one of them. He used the coupon in their mail box as an excuse to talk to them ( Read more... )

So it's the weekend after the first two classes and I'm already feeling behind. I'm taking on a grotesquely sized workload. While I enjoy a challenge, and the subject matter is a joy, 150 lines of greek plus like 150 pages of reading is a lot, no matter how you look at it.

wow, my life is dull...

Currently Latin is scary, and the prospect of a tomorrow exam even scarier. 100% is a heavy load for 3 hours. Remember me fondly.

At LAST!!! Two Latin poets I like!!! Horace and Persius. ( I haven't read Vergil in anything but a translation with a clear political agenda)...Thus my summer Latin reading.

People find it disconcerting when I reply to their "Classical studies...huh...what are you gonna do with that?" with a "nothing." Generally they find it abnormal for a person to not want a definate career or any goal above reading some Apollonius and Plato this summer. I'm tired of making up fake excuses about how the study of the past is so ( Read more... )
