Assignments

Hi there.
I've been rather dull this week: that's what happens when you do no work all semester and suddenly find yourself hit with three assignments due all in the space of 1.5 weeks.

Oh, ok I did work for Linguistics, because it's really interesting; I also remember a lot about my culture lessons because I love them; furthermore I did a commentaire (in-class two hours) on the film of Le Festin de Babette for Methodology.

It's fairly unlucky that all these things are due at the same time.

Oh, I forgot that I also had a mid-term exam for Ling, and another two-hour test for Culture (commentaire).

Week (N)
Meant to have had:

  • Wed: 2 h X in-class commentaire on a painting or a lettre de Mme de Sevigne
  • Wed: 2 h X in-class commentaire on a film seen in-class about the significance of French Food in the text.
But Mme. Rollin was away and so all got shifted to the next week.

Week (N+1)

  • Wed: 4 h X catch-up tests
  • Thurs: 2.5 h X Ling. mid-term
Week (N+2)

  • Fri: 3 page commentaire due on an extract of La Toison d'Or by Theophile Gautier
Week (N+3)

  • Tues: an in-class expose meant to last 1/2 h on a dream out of Mrs Dalloway or 3 page commentaire with three parts (themes if you like): Due Tomorrow, FUCK!
  • Fri: another commentaire due on La Toison d'Or.


I'm fully getting into this whole literature thing, however: it makes me wonder whether I would have been better off doing Lit. at school rather than TEE Art/Art History. This said, analysing literature is much like analysing a painting, perhaps even easier.

Argh, gotta to go finish this piece of work and grab some groceries.
