/shows up 9 months late w/o starbucks

So...I'm still around, haha. And now that school's out for summer I'm going to make another attempt at being more active in the LJ-posting department. So.

Most interesting thing that's happened to me lately is that I went to Brooklyn for the first time in my life, which would be awesome enough by itself, but I went there to see the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of the Henriad and I AM STILL NOT OVER IT. I WILL NEVER BE OVER IT. /screams/ I mean, David Tennant was Richard II. I was in the same building as the Doctor. My fifteen-year-old self was in hysterics. It was a pretty kickass trip.

But yeah, my life lately has pretty much consisted of school. Which has contributed to the realization that I really want to go to grad school, which...probably means I'm certifiable, lol, but if I can finangle a way to talk about this historical/literary stuff for the rest of my life, I'll be happy as a clam.

i need to stop writing blog posts at 2am

Brooklyn and Shakespeare sounded so much fun! It's so cool that you got to see something live (and it's also p cool that said live thing had the Doctor. ;) )

I hope grad school works out! Academia for liiiiiiife~

I'm still not totally convinced it happened, tbh. I actually went with my Shakespeare class so we spent a lot of time dissecting the shows, nerding out basically, haha.

Thanks a bunch! Are you also in the Pit of Despair (With Occasional Spots of Brightness) known as academia?

I am in university, working toward a degree, but majoring in graphic design for a Bachelor in Design isn't quite the same as classic academia. ;p (It might be, though, because I will have the option for grad school.)
