rhyllwell. yesterday was not relaxing.
i gave my presentation ("here is my topic! here is how i will study it! i am neat and my work is important!") yesterday morning. and while all of the presentations last week seemed to get five minutes of questions like, "so, could you describe your chapter outline?", my questioning session was rather...intense.
among other things, i got questioned on whether or not the global justice movement can actually exist (yes, i was perplexed too).
i am a little curious, i admit, about whether or not i am shooting myself in the foot with this project. it may severely hamper any future in academia.
we'll just have to see, won't we?
in other news:
anyone seen a group of giggling girls and boys running around in dresses and tuxedos advertising trashy-hollywood-comedy? they are my latest pet hate. very upset with 'guerrilla advertising'. cooption of countercultural practices (graffiti, chalking, and now street theater) for advertising. do not encourage them, or i will kick you in the shins.
i saw my father last night, and it was very nice. he is very good at being a father, sometimes.
phil's party last night was excellent. more later, when i am less distracted.
