I had a nice Saturday morning studying Latin.

I also finished my notes on ‘Caliban and the Witch’ and let me tell you, there’s nothing better than a good scoop of feminist Marxist theory to start the day.

dear GOD why do i fall in love with every person that spares me a shred of romance?? why must i be filled with such unbridled yearning? someone please take my heart off of me, i cannot control it. i fear i will die from overexposure to this wild passion.

oh, to be the owner of a small bookshop on a cobblestone street with roses climbing the front of the building, where books are stacked about in piles and there’s always coffee brewing and a sleepy shop dog lifts his head at the sound of the door’s bell and thumps his tail against the hardwood

This upcoming week I have a gallery review for my classical art history class. I do love spending time in a library, but a museum will be a nice change
