Tick tock, tick tock . . . . .
See that above? That's time. And it's ticking away on me. I'm so screwed.
So yeah, today I have my 15 minute presentation about Canadian war poetry, specifically the difference between WWI poems and WWII poems. So far what I've gotten is that WWII poetry is a lot more bitter than the stuff they wrote in the first one . . . less rhyming, less metrical anythings, and a whole lot more "people are naughty" to it. I'm still deciding if I can actually put a handout together . . . that of course meaning I'll be working on this last night (gotta love time zone complications).
For fun, though, I figured I'd recite some homemade verse to summarize my points. Hopefully I don't end up being too sacrilegious with it . . .
Oh, speaking of school, I'm royally ticked off with that Children's Lit' class right this minute. You see, prof was sick yesterday so class was cancelled. That's fine, it's not his fault . . . . . BUT, that basically means that we'll only really have two lectures for "Spirited Away" because I don't expect we'll be lecturing too hard on the last day of classes on Friday (when most likely everyone'll either not be there, or drunk . . . all because of "Arts Country Fair", most likely - that's basically exactly what it sounds like, anyway). So yeah, ORIGINALLY we were designed to have two weeks of "Spirited Away", getting us six lectures. Now we're basically down to two and a half, if even. This upsets me.
Seriously, this was supposed to be my chance to really make a dent in the class discussions . . . actually, it was probably a lot of people's chances (I noticed a lot more people speaking last day than usual . . . all asian, no less, go fig) . . . now it's all over . . . grr-ness . . . . .
Anyway, to tide over the grr-ness, here's a video that's sucking up my life because it's just silly . . .
