I have conquered the unit

Now all I have to do is put it on CD, drop it off, and do my assessment test creation assignment. Oh, and finalize my metaphor and philosophy. And start student teaching. Wait, that's more than I thought...

Getting there.

Life is getting more complex and potentially ridiculous by the moment.


Currently reading: The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. I laughed when even the other English student teachers gaped over the size of this book; I hadn't even thought anything of it. I think more people would read it if they saw what it said in the intro:

there are not many...books that involve a female serial poisoner, two cases of infanticide, a stabbing and three suicides; an extended scene of torture and execution; drug-induced sexual fantasies, illegitimacy, transvestism and lesbianism; a display of the author's classical learning, and his knowledge of modern European history, the customs and diets of the Italians, the effects of hashish, and so on...
