I think I'm nerdhot for Old English.
Sep. 1st, 2009 07:06 pmI really really really like Old English. I like it so much, I even bought Beowulf in OE. It's a pretty bad assed language! I am probably going to make flashcards to help me memorize pronouns and demonstratives. . . trust me, I need it. And now we're into some anomalous verbs! /geek If I could marry OE, I would.
I love love love seeing the links between OE and German and MnE - I get practically giddy. And phrases like "kith and kin" which come from "cyþþ ond cynn" omg. OMG! THIS IS NUTS! NUTS I SAY!!
Anyway like I mentioned, I always do homework in the order of the class so i will be getting to the African History homework first tonight. I like my new system. I'm so ORGANIZED! I'm a reformed student, except for my incident today of in class IMing. I'm no longer going to be the blind squirrel who may find a nut, I'm going to be the actively nut seeking squirrel. . . If I were a missle, and the nuts were hot, I'd be a heat seeking squirrel - you know, like a missile.
Tomorrow: Job interview, Nevada museum of art, OE Homework, SOTA 100 reading, Farewell to Arms for Am. Novel if it gets here tomorrow. Read for Film class if that book gets here.
Thursday: Class all day
Friday: Hiking with Andi around Emerald Bay. Booyeaaaaaah.
