Ahead of Schedule
I can hardly believe it. I'm in the midst of research for my final essay for my Shakespeare tutorial. I don't want it to end! I've had such a great time, and I've learned so much, that it will be strange not having Shakespeare constantly in my life. Aww...
I'm reading The Tempest as my last play. Fitting isn't it? I thought so too! It's really interesting to note all the similarities between The Tempest and Shakespeare's earlier works. Themes, issues, genre discrepancies, they're all there. I think that might be what I end up writing my essay on. Actually, I just finished my research and reading for The Tempest, so all I have to do now is come up with an outline and write the paper! Alright!
However, with the conclusion of my primary tutorial and only two more meetings for my secondary tutorial, comes the inevitable return back to America. As I was walking home with Alex Thursday night he pointed out that I only have 2 weeks and 5 days left. Now it's 2 weeks and 3 days. It was extremely depressing. I'll miss him a lot. I've just been so surprised how well and easily we get along together. There's none of that "I have no idea what the hell I want to say to you" awkward silence. I'll have to return to Hillsdale, where, no offense to my guy friends, there's not a whole lot of great selection and absolutely nowhere to go clubbing and drinking. [sad panda]
On a brighter note, Lindsay and I are throwing a "Beer Pong 101" party. haha. We miss it, and since none of the English people we've met here know what it is, we've invited them over to teach them the dearest pastime of college party life. Hopefully it goes well. It should be amusing, if nothing else.
I'll be in for the evening. Lindsay is going out to her football club party. It's pretty much her, 2 other girls, and about 30 guys. I laugh. hehe. I'm not sure what I'll be doing tonight. Movie? Reading? Should I start my essay already? Choices...choices...
