Rawrz.
Classes are going pretty well so far. Not... a whole lot to do, it feels like? Lots of readings and all, but that's how it always is. My Anth book keeps getting detained at state borders, wtf. D: But it's in Richmond right now, so it'll definitely arrive tomorrow, and I don't think Richard is going to murder me or anything over not having it yet.
Been working on my Comparative Politics reading. God, this article is so boring. And not even boring in the "I don't care about the subject matter" boring, no, I like politics. It's boring in the "ohmyfuckinggod, get to the point." boring. I could give it a little bit of credit if it was wasting my time trying to sound intelligent, but instead it's wasting my time trying not to offend me or anyone else in the world, so it basically just keeps backtracking to apologize for every little inference you could make from any sentence. Which pretty much makes it a jumbled mess of STFU. 11 pages in, only 20 more to go. Need to write my LTD on this, but that'd be a lot easier if I could like... find some sort of point to it all. :/
Need to work on the article for Physical Anthro, since I don't have the textbook so I can't do that one. It looks a lot more interesting, and that class is earlier in the day, but that whole actually having to respond to the Comparative Politics reading makes me feel like I need to prioritize the shittier one.
Have gone through and looked at the interesting sounding possibilities for the Comparative Politics book review, have a few picked out. The two I'm leaning towards are in the library, so I need to go pick them up and flip through them to make sure they're interesting.
Culture and Economy looks interesting so far, haven't really done anything yet. There're only 7 people in the class, but it's interesting that I don't know all of them. Gasp. Which means I still know like, half of them.
Parties in SIS have resumed, despite the lack of bagels. I went to the gym for an hour and it was amazing, but my legs aren't sore at all? D: Like, I felt tired afterwards, so I figured I should stop, but there's no burn. :( That makes me sad. Also no time to go tonight, so maybe after class tomorrow.
Still obsessing over Star Trek like pathetic burning. I'm slightly disgusted at myself, but I knew it would happen if I ever watched it. Kirk still makes me twitch just with the fact that he's Shatner and not attractive to me at all other than the "I guess other people would find that attractive?" which I believe is linked to the fact that he looks just like my dad and that's aawkwaaaard. And personality-wise, incredibly accurate. Huh. At any rate, go Nimoy.
Okay. If I put Star Trek on I can do my readings, lawl.
