"I give her to you, Yuri Andreavich. Wedding present."

Today at the circulation desk of the theology library, when I returned 50 million books--
Woman: Wow, this is a lot of books! You must really like reading!
Me: [awkward laughter] Yeah.
Woman: What class are you taking?
Me: Jerusalem--The Holy City.
Woman: So you're not a student, then?
Me: No, I am. That's in the religion department.
Woman: Oh!
[pause.]
Woman: Are you going to get ordained?
Me: [very surprised laughter] No.
Woman: I think you'd make a really good minister. You seem like a very nice person.

Haha!
It's sad to think I have just under a week left of this semester, during which I got to know so many wonderful people. This fall went by absurdly fast. I know people always say that, but I really don't know what happened.
Finally in this nice spell of free time, post-film, paper, and exam, I have uploaded the Doctor Zhivago stills I captured in a moment of procrastination last week. All my movie stills are available here.
I'm leaving town on the 21st, it looks like. The plan is to return in May for graduation.
So so excited to go out to the movies!! I haven't really seen a movie for...three weeks! Maybe it sounds silly but I've really felt the loss. I was really sad in screenwriting class because watching things seemed like such a novetly, and I was dreading the end of the class, when I'd be thrust back into academic stress...but most of that is past now! Only my screenplay left.

Also: the Religion Department building smells like Exeter. mmmm.
