this quarter is shaping up to be real good.
i love my english class. my professor opened up the first day of lecture with a discussion about democratic principles as applied to a university setting. seemingly irrelevant to american literature, yet he managed to tie it into something innate to american culture, american spirit, and ultimately... american literature. it's been so long since i've heard a genuinely passionate discussion regarding anything related to political science. at the end of class, i talked to him briefly about what he had discussed. our momentary discussion somehow led to a brief debate about the value of amicus curiae briefings in ex parte quirin. in an english class. how awesome is that?
i'm about to get ready for my first party of the school year, though for some reason, something in me would rather spend the night with this book i started earlier today. it's called Clotel, by William Wells Brown. haha. 19 years old and i'm preferring a book over partying on a friday night. what is wrong with me?
