Tuesday, September 3

i'm having problems with time. jean-vincent asked me to switch to the 830 section of french 3 this morning because the later class is too big and i haven't registered yet. i must have just missed two phone calls from rae because i was across the hall in rob's room. the french grammar book i need is sold out at the book store, and now i'm in the language lab to do that work and les petites filles are using all the cassettes.

on the other hand, there are good things: dr. strangelove, the "aesthetic thrills" of bach cantatas (although prof. m. talks a lot, and has many students, it seems like a good class), the more relaxed reunion talks with folks i managed to miss in the first few days of good-to-see-you madness (zabby, ali, rblock), a big pile of promos only some of which i requested (ranging from s-k to fbh to j.s. bach) and which i'll hopefully be able to write about for the phoen. also: that rae is around and that rob is about to take me to get my computer. on that note…

i'm not just made of hearts
