Alright?

Instead of saying "Hi, how are you?", people in London just nodded at you and said "Alright?"

So, hello!  Since England, my life has been busy, but not terribly interesting. Not really blog-worthy. I miss London, but it's not an achy feeling. (Until I start looking at flats for rent in London again. That is a bad, bad idea, in case you were wondering.)

This summer, I:
  • played Hermia in A Midsummer Night's Dream
  • took a math class (that may or may not actually count for my math credit. Dammit, 'seo, get yourself together)
  • worked on the archaeological dig in my area
I am now back at school for my senior year (ahhhhhhhhhhhh) and really excited! Classes I am taking:
  • Classical Anthropological Theory (our senior seminar)
  • Qualitative Research Methods in Anthropology*
  • Myths & Folklore of Native North Americans
  • Ethnography and Film
  • *I am also my favorite professor's research assistant this semester, which is a) awesome, b) looks good on a resume and c) I get paid! However, I'm getting nervous. I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing, what I'm supposed to be doing, and it's going to be a lot harder than I thought. 

Danes is all gradumacated, but he's close by, so I'm seeing him every other weekend, supposedly. He helped me move in last weekend, which was nice. We're still doing well; almost at 2.5 years, crazy!

I read a bunch of books this summer, most notably:
  • the most recent Nightside
  • the second-to-last Drood book (both Simon R. Green)
  • and the entire Ruth Galloway series of archaeological mysteries set in England (ugh, I don't really like Ruth, but the stories are so addicting)
  • and I'm in the middle of Oscar Wilde and the Vatican Murders
Also, there is tv!
  • I got halfway through True Blood and then my computer died (I'm using my dad's old one and I'm getting one for my birfday)
  • I also just recently got into Luther (SO. GOOD.)
  • And Roomie has just been showing me Death Note and I like it. Probably the only anime I like. 

Here, have some neo-swing-rockabilly that is my current obsession



Till next time!
