Has anyone ever considered this? "Spring" semester begins in winter and two-thirds of "spring" semester is in winter, so shouldn't it really be winter semester?
For that matter, why is is "spring" break? UNF's "spring" break ends before the first day of spring. It should be "pre-spring" break or something like that.
This is probably mental residue from an exercise we did in Fiction Workshop where my group produced a discussion arguing that zippers are evil.
Meanwhile, "spring" semester is upon us. A's in all my classes last semester (woo hoo!).
This semester I'm taking CRW3930 (the aforementioned Fiction Workshop)
and another LIT4934, Poetry and Poetics. Which is decidedly not my thing, but I'm trying to expand my horizons, stretch myself -- or maybe this is a passive attempt to force a nervous breakdown given the reading load for Poetics.
I got a new cell phone over break (my old one was due for a refresh) and am thinking about starting a mobile side to this blog given the new phone's slide-out QWERTY keyboard that is actually pretty easy to type on. I also slapped a huge memory card (8GB $25 at Newegg vs. a lot more at the phone store) into it so it can be my primary MP3 player and maybe even replace my flash drive (though I'd need to drag around a cable to do that). How's that for technology increasing simplicity through complexity?
Well, more to come soon, hopefully -- once I figure out what I'm going to post here. Probably not much from CRW (a lot of critiquing that wouldn't make much sense if you didn't read the underlying story), but maybe some of the assignments from Poetics after the fact.
