Hello, Halo

NO MISTAKE

Classes started up and are in full swing. I thought I was going to be extremely behing in Anthropology 306, due to the fact that I joined a week and a half after classes started. I talked to the TA today though, and she was really cool about helping me make up the points I missed (which, realistically, was only like.. 8). Archaeological Anthropology is pretty cool, too. Matt Hill is pretty cool and his TA is a lot of fun. English however. OH MY GOD. It sucks so hard. Look, I’m an English major. I know how to write a paper. I promise. I’m so tired of reading these essays. No joke, we’ve read three essays and done summaries on them. One of which was called “How to mark a book”. I know how to mark a book. I know how to write an essay. I know how to successfully pass english. After looking at the syllabus, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s going to be looooong and shitty semester.

Oh well.

I think I’ve decided to double major (oh God!) in English and Anthropology. I’m pretty sure I would have to do fieldwork abroad though, in order to accomplish a major. Which would be really interesting, except that I get homesick so easily. I mean, for the first month I was here I was miserable. Maybe it would be different though, if I knew I’d be coming back soon.. But I’m also pretty sure there are options shorter than an entire semester. The TA for 306 told us about her work in Puyo with the Zapara, and oh my god it would be so amazing.The problem here, is that I don’t speak Spanish.

But wouldn’t that be incredible to work with the indiginous people? The answer is hell yes it would.

I’m sure that there are a million other studies I could do though, I’m just over excited about this one because I just heard about it.
