I haven't updated in a week, and mostly it's because I'm mad at Lost. Not really. I was actually going to write a long thing about how the Lost writers have given up on showing and now they are just telling (a fundamental NO of writing), but then I remembered no one reads this or would want to have a conversation about this.
My latest history paper is on the subject of soldier mentality during the Second World War on the Western and Pacific fronts, as well as the combat experience and its "meaning" or lack thereof. Like, individuality in war, and the like. I think this is a very interesting topic and I would really like to get another A on this paper. I got a B/B- on the last one, on account of, "little variance in source material" and "this is a solid paper but you've done better." I hate that last one, because it's like saying, "If I hadn't seen that this was written by you, I would have thought it was a lot better." Maybe I should just be happy that I have professors who hold me to a high standard, but I would also just like to do well in things, too.
I'm thinking about going full on veg this summer, by which I really mean, "pescatarian," because I still want to eat fish. Someone was like, "And this is different from what you do now... how?" And I guess it's really not at all different but I'm just legitimizing it at this point in time.
