I am become stress't.
If I do not find another course to add to my schedule this coming FALL SEMESTER, I will not be able to visit my parents, should they move to a country that occupies a rather sizable portion of WEST AFRICA. This is because the government will only pay my airfare if I am a full-time student. Besides being unable to visit my parents in the near future(which I am looking forward to) I won't be able to find a cheap flight from AFRICA to EUROPE, which is something that I have been scheming. I've looked through the schedules for upper-level Spanish classes, Writing & Literature classes that seem remotely interesting, and even Philosophy classes. Yet there is not one single available seat in any. It seems that as soon as I try to become serious about school, every other student here does the same, gobbling up every class in any subject that appeals to me. Then again, I suppose that I've usually signed up for core courses, of which there are millions of possible classes at different times and in different places. My mom tells me to go find a Spanish professor and beg them to put me in a class, but, being a timid man, I hesitate to do so. I do not know what else to do but wait and try again tomorrow, the next day, and the next, until a seat becomes available. Truthfully, though, I can't wait until next semester's classes, people and ideas.
Today I went to KHARMA CAFE and read for a few hours, the same book I've been reading: JONATHAN STRANGE & MR NORRELL, and I am in love with this book. It is very nearly 800 pages, and though I'm halfway through, I do not look forward to the last page. Even though it is a modern novel, it is written in oldish-sounding English, and as I am very fond of it's style, I chose to write this entry in much the same way. It was strange, because the in the smoky, single room of the KHARMA, played hours of uninterrupted classical music. Music that did not fit the environment at all, but instead fit with the atmosphere of the book completely.
With that, I bid ye farewell.
Oh, and Joey ~ I hope that you are enjoying Holland and am anxious to hear about it.
