Moment of Squee

It's Thursday January 21. A date that can be summed up in two words...



HELL YEAH. Ok, that was two more words, but I think you can catch the drift. :D

Also I had my first Latin class of the semester today, which is going to be made of awesome. We're reading Ovid's Metamorphoses. I read some of the Metamorphoses in high school for AP Latin, but it will be nice to read the stories again now that translating more than 20 lines at a go no longer seems impossible. The professor is also really cool, so that adds to the overall good vibe of the class. I'm just so happy to be back in a Latin class again, given that I couldn't take one last semester. Io, lingua Latina!

And OMG, my Forms of Folklore class seems like it's going to be really cool too. We're going to be watching a couple episodes of Star Trek: TNG over the course of the semester, and we have entire sections on ghost stories, urban legends, and superstition. Just sitting in lecture is like having an hour and a half of squee. And the syllabus mentioned fandom. HELL YES.

supernatural, latin, school, berkeley, classics, fandom
