My goodness; these terms really do fly. I think it&#8217;s because we do so much work that we all lose track of time, an then we can&#8217;t believe our eyes when we see the calendar. I don&#8217;t know; I&#8217;m going to have to talk to some of my Psychology friends to determine if that theory has any merit whatsoever. Anyway, whilst the work load has been difficult, it&#8217;s been rewarding and enjoyable nonetheless. My first tutorial for Victorian Literature is today; we&#8217;ll be covering Henry James&#8217; <em>Washington Square<\/em>. Yes, this term, I&#8217;m dealing with texts that are somewhat earlier than usual. Don&#8217;t worry, though; I&#8217;m still taking a primary Medieval tutorial and I&#8217;m attending a lot of Medieval lectures. For my Medieval Paleography tutorial on Friday, I&#8217;m studying the development of manuscripts. As for the lectures, my Old English Poetry lecture yesterday was fantastic! Dr. Sutherland lectured primarily on the subject on which I want to write my senior thesis (oh, yes, that&#8217;s coming up next year&#8230;). Of course, I&#8217;m still attending more modern lectures, too, like TS Eliot for example. As I told my parents on Sunday, my Victorian Literature class reminds me on daily basis that, as much as I adore the Medieval period (and, if you&#8217;ve read this blog for the past year or so, you know how much I love that period!), I really just love literature in general, from the ancient\/Classical period to the modern day. To all prospective students: Declare an English major. It is the best decision that you will make. I promise. Anyway, enough departmental plugging. I&#8217;ve got to return to preparing for my tutorial. Until next time!<\/p>\n<p>-Colleen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s already Week 2 of Hilary.
