The Gothic cathedral: Origins of Gothic architecture and the medieval concept of order (Bollingen series)
By Otto Georg von Simson

Yes, I did change the color... it is not puke yellow... it is a pretty sunshiney yellow, thank you very much and if you don't like it you can change it yourself!!!!

Gah, today has been uncool and I'm angry at my Irish lit prof who didn't tell me she didn't like the way I cited things until my final draft when I turned in a first draft to her. And she fricking hated where I put my page numbers and flipped out about it not being MLA standard, well she can bite me because I have a frigging W and that prof (head of the English Department) had no problem with my page numbers being bottom center! And I think he knows slightly more than her two years out of grad school. GRR.

Have a nice day all.

Ride Otto Ride! (Adventures of Otto)
By David Milgrim

Hiya everybody!!

I just got the journal today! I am so excited but I will not read it before I have written, I swear. Things have been crazy fun around here. Friday night was informal and we went bowling. My team was the QueenPins and we wore matching pink polos, skirts, and tiaras... too much fun. Then Saturday night Joe Hake came to visit with two of his friends; it is so much fun when people come to visit. Anyway, I am posting to tell you all when my breaks are and if you could do the same (I think Andrea requested this earlier too) that would rock my socks!

My fall break is October 15 - October 23
My Christmas break is December 13-ish - January 5

Yay, I can't wait until fall break...and my birthday which is like a week away... gosh, us October girls are going to be 20! That's so weird....

All my chronicling love,

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (Penguin Classics)
By James Joyce, Seamus Deane

Gosh, I love you guys so much. I miss you all so incredibly much. I've finally gotten to where I have friends here in the house but whenever I talk to them I talk so much about you guys. It makes me miss you more. I want to see you all and hang out and talk and everything. It's so funny there are people here who remind me of you guys... like I just saw two of the seniors wearing blankets as capes and running around the halls.... then there's a junior who says really random things... but not quite like you Klink, she's a lot drier. Anyway, I hope you all know that I love you and that I'm sorry I haven't talked to any of you (except Licia) in forever. Call me if you ever need anything, I try to remember to have my cell phone with me when I go places. Or IM me. Monica, get back on yahoo, I definitely left you fun messages there last week. I know I'm never around on AIM, it's because there's a guy from Wabash who wants to go on a date with me and I don't want to be mean but he just creeps me out. Anyway, I'll get up the nerve to clear it up and then I'll be around more I think.... that is if my homework clears up a bit. Homework is my life and it's all papers and reading. In case it interests anyone, I quit orchestra here. I wasn't having fun anymore; I don't need to credits; and I felt it was stressing me out and keeping me from doing the kinds of community service I wanted to do. So now I'm tutoring on Wednesdays with a program called French Enrichment where we teach little kids little bits of French... and I'm going to start doing IRC (Indiana Reading Corp) soon.

All my chronicling love,

Gilmore Girls - The Complete Fourth Season
By Lauren Graham

OK, so at the moment I am supposed to me finishing writing the first of three papers that I have due this week, but alas, I can't concentrate so I'm taking this, a quick break, to post here. I miss you all bunches and if you ever have free time and want to call me I would love that!! At the moment I am revising an essay about Catholicism in Dublin as portrayed in James Joyce's "Dubliners"... super exciting I know. It's been extremely busy here the past couple of days. We had our first student Mass for CSA and the meeting beforehand. Then after the Mass I helped with high school youth group. It was craziness. Then Monday morning my vice president (of CSA) informed me that we had paperwork to fill out in order to be a recognized club on campus. She'd known about it for two weeks and had just decided to tell me on Monday, it was due today. Yeah that was fun. But luckily I have awesome juniors as two of the other officers. The one that was most helpful was our treasurer, this really nice junior guy ... anyway, no real prospects there... I don't think, anyway....

Anyway, now I'm watching the premiere of Gilmore Girls... yay! I love you all lots and lots.

Love,
Court

Pride and Prejudice
By Jane Austen

Hiyas,

So, things are slightly busy and everything here. I love living in the house; the girls are awesome and there is always stuff going on. You can't be lonely when you live in a sorority. Anyway, this is also kind of a problem because I have a hard time really getting my homework done. . oh well, I think once the novelty wears off I will be more inclined to get stuff done. And also once I stop procrastinating like crazy.

Anywho, I'm looking in to study abroad already and having a hard time deciding what I want. I talked to an advisor today and she liked the idea of my studying in England, however, she also said I need to declare my major and then talk to those advisors about what is best. I feel like as a French major I should study in France but I really want, as a English Lit major, to study in the UK. Anyway, eventually I will make a decision I think. I just wanted to update and whatnot. I'm liking my classes and I'm now the copyeditor of the yearbook here (go figure). And now I'm off to get some stuff done before my class at 2.

Love you all,
Courtney
