Ugh, I have to be up in, oh, 7 hours? 7.5? to go on our Shakespeare field trip. I will have fun, I am sure, but I am really just unadventurous :-p

Today was excellent though, for classes and everything. It's really cool, we're working on Mark 2 right now; it starts off with Jesus healing the paralytic and forgiving his sins. And at the end of it, it ( Read more... )

Today was good, I was massively productive and happy. I went to Mass this morning with Katie and Christopher, who is visiting for the weekend. Had lunch, then went to the gym. I brought Anathem with me, it's such an intimidating-looking brick and I loved it. I was on an elliptical next to a girl reading Twilight, and so I got a full half hour of ( Read more... )

Yes, I am :-p ( Greek stuff )

Atkins, gtfo, I've found the new perfect diet. For lunch I had a lovely cream cheese and jelly sandwich (don't judge me), and cantaloupe and coffee and ice cream. Soo...a bunch of sugar with some caffeine thrown in for good measure. And I was f'ing on fire at the gym this afternoon consequently. Was so happy and not tired at all, was consistently ( Read more... )

It's fascinating to re-do this every few years :-p Although this is the first time I've been knowledgeable enough that I could pick out which questions and answers would correspond to which faith, more or less

I've been stressing out, irrationally, as I do, about how boring I am. This isn't a problem in itself, but since some professors are prone to asking for Fun Facts about us to start the class off, and I've exhausted my TKD status by now, I...have nothing left. I could, I suppose, write "I am a very boring person, and contented to be so" as my ( Read more... )

I had a generally uneventful day, work and reading and stuff. But there's a passage from Alias Grace that I marked when I read it, I like it a lot:

They are hypocrites, the think the church is a cage to keep God in, so he will stay locked up there and not go wandering about the earth during the week, poking his nose into their business, and looking ( Read more... )

Happy Feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ. It's really neat, all of May is filled with interesting events - Pentecost, then the Trinity, now Corpus Christi, and later Sacred Heart of Jesus (technically Friday, but since nobody said anything at Mass today it may have been moved to Sunday). Father Brendan gave an excellent homily about ( Read more... )

I've been chugging away on Foucault's Pendulum like a good little bookworm, and i'm only halfway through. Not that I don't love it so far, I do, but I am very behind on my goal of 100 books by the end of the year (I've finished 34 so far, should have 42 done by the end of May). I was considering, because my TBR pile has no thin books in it, going ( Read more... )
