Wow, i have not written anything on this thing in quite some time. Anyways, ttyl. jk.
Joseph Carey just notified me that three years ago today we graduated high school. In related news I feel it might be time to look into some of those Levitra and Cialis spam emails I receive.
I've written some lengthy material on the intentional&affective fallacy, the heresy of paraphrase, visual textuality, subversion of patriarchal language, and the literary criticism concepts of lacan, derrida, fish, frye, and isler via two versions and two variants of Blake's London. Im actually pretty proud of my paper. Kiddos, the catch is that i have no intentional correlatives for any of these isolated digressions and now real idea as to how to link them. I give up.
I need to get back in the gym action. I feel as though my arms and back are getting soft. It suddenly ocurred to me today that I leave in 16 days and although i anticipate using the University's gym overseas I feel as though i should be in shape before i leave anyway. I need to tighten things back up and i have good muscle memory, so now after neglecting the gym for a week we shall find out exactly how great my muscle memory is. Perhaps some two-a-days are in order.
Going over some life decisions lately. The Erasmus program alots for some 15% transfer rate for fall and it has more than crossed my mind to leave things behind here and take advantage of this opportunity. I could get substanial money. Im still not signed to a lease here, so there is nothing binding me to gainesville. Its a much more accredited university then u of f, and at the very least i get to leave the south blah blah blah. Anyway, its something i'll have to consider.
Spoke to Nina for about an hour today. No pressing issues, no real significance. Just a wonderful casual conversation. I feel as though there is still some dispartity between us that may never be rectified. This disparity is not out of spite on either of our behalves, but rather the result of unforunate circumstances. True human connections are so fragile and infrequent, but she and i seem to connect very pleasantly and genuinelyat times, which i think serves as motivation for both of us to restore what was once a mutally gratifying friendship. That is not to say that we are not friends or that our friendship has ceased to exist, but rather that the mutal affection is present, but the daily interactions that create greater synergies for these fragile human connections occur to a less extent.
I purchased some books for friends leaving. I picked up some shizz for adam, marvin, dekel, chris, nothing for Jenn(as she is in physics and consequently her reading is somewhat limited to the sunday funnies) and Jess(who can suck a dick).
marvin-Giovanni's room, and The history of Rasselas
adam-the history of rasselas, and Essays by samuel johnson
dekel- Essays by sam johnson, and A Lover's Discourse: Fragments by roland barthes
chris-ways of seeing by john berger, and An Alchemy of Mind by diane ackerman
Anyway, im going to make my routine calls to see what time i will be making my wake up call rounds tomorrow morning.
