Half-way done with finals. I’ve only got two left, and one of them is so easy it shouldn’t even be considered a final.


Last big one tomorrow, then I’m free!!


Back to reading, writing, hobbys, ahh. All those things I miss. I have an ‘unread’ shelf waiting for me.


Soon enough even that will be over, but for now, I’m liking the anticipation.

fun times

Jeff Netto is officially my favorite professor this semester. Late-40’s-Early-50’s white man that teaches Rhetoric. Let me tell you, he’s a master of it himself. But he often says quotable things, and today, I wrote some down.

“Another reason why death shouldn’t be so cocky. Death lives in a shitty neighborhood.” (Context: “Death, be not proud”)  
“‘Let’s get on with it; let’s get busy!’ That’s the point of a carpe diem poem. Or, well, most of them.” (Context: Shakespeare Sonnet 73)  
“‘John Dun uses several figures of speech to take away our fear of death.’ There’s a rough draft thesis for you. It just lacks the spicy words and the sexy.”  
“Make me like you a little more with your clever use of style, rather than make me resent you for boring the hell out of me.”
