don't watch it happen again / gotta change rearrange

Well, I guess that I should probably blog now before I fall asleep outside of my covers with my laptop on for like the eighth night in a row. Not a whole lot happened this weekend. It was Anime Club's August Showing on both Saturday and Sunday, and the theme was American cartoons, which meant that I saw a crapload of stuff. Some of it I didn't care for, either, so I also got lots of reading done.

It's been raining for a few days straight now. It is partly nice, as it had been so dry here, but I imagine that I'll find it extremely annoying tomorrow when I'm standing at bus stops.

Wow. I just realized that this is my last full week of work. I already requested off for next week so that I have time to take a deep breath (and hunt down the cheapest locales for all my needed books) before the semester starts. My classes for this semester look like they'll be pretty sweet.

For my last science class at this University, I'll be taking Women's Studies 103: Women's Bodies, Health & Disease.
For my Political Science stuff, I'm taking a Comparative Study of Genocide. I'm expecting it to be a bit of a downer.
British Literature from 1750-present (required for the major). Reading list includes Pride & Prejudice (!!!!). Although, I have to read another freaking Charles Dickens book for this class. I HATE CHARLES DICKENS. TERRIBLE.
Lastly, "A Theme in Medieval Lit: Women in the Medieval World." Reading lists includes Tristan & Isolde, Arthurian Romances, and Beowulf. BEOWULF!! Sweet.

Also, without trying, my class schedule shook out so that I have no class on Fridays! Right now, I'm signed up to work 8-5 Fridays. Since Fridays are pretty dead at the Capitol, I'm hoping that this will mean that I get homework done before the weekend starts. That would be pretty sweet.

Anyway. I should probably sleep now. Or something. I have one disc left in the first season of Avatar: The Last Airbender, and it is a pretty sweet show. I intend to write a more elaborate post about it at some point.

Wo. Studies 103 is pretty much the best class ever. Who do you have?

I'm jealous of your science class. :/ It sounds really interesting.

Yeah! Everyone who has taken it has said good things about it, too. I sort of saved it for last because I've been trying like hell to drag up my GPA. So that it's like, a mostly-upward trend in case I ever want to do more education.

The listed person is Ronna Abbe Popkin. I think that the usual person is taking a semester or a year off. Sadly, our book list is still not posted for this class!
