Fourth Week

It was my last week of seminars. I had a paper on King Lear due on Wednesday and my final religion paper on the wisdom writings due on Thursday. The teachers here love back-to-back papers. Unfortunately my english teacher had a wonderful idea of one extra class, so my last english class will be next week when we discuss Macbeth. So now I get to work on my tutorials and a class that was supposed to end this week.

I met with one of my tutors today as a preliminary meeting. She seemed nice, but I've heard that all tutors all nice outside of class. :) She assigned me a lot of reading for next week. When I described to mom the amount of reading I am supposed to do, she thought it was for the entire semester. I'm think the tutors know that this amount of reading isn't possible. I mean she told me not to spend my weekend in the library and to "enjoy some pints," but to do that there is no way I could read everything. So we'll see how I do this upcoming week.

We are planning on going out tonight to celebrate the end of tutorials. And on Sunday we have to go to the Globe to see a performance of Macbeth.

  1. You don't "have" to go to the Globe; you have the marvelous opportunity of seeing Macbeth (don't know how to italicize in this program) at the Globe! UB and I are going to see Cats tonight at Thalia Mara Hall in Jackson. I remember when Aunt Kitty and Uncle Charlie saw it in NYC.

    Windsor Castle was just enchanting, I thought. In the doll house I remember seeing a picture on a wall that was crooked or something was the matter and telling one of the docents about it. I said maybe it was that way at the real castle but probably not adn she laughed and agreed that it needed to be straightened. Much love, AK

  2. Are you getting to have high tea any place? I did enjoy our teas. Sorry you are having so much to read and SO many papers. You are getting quite an education.
    Do you remember when we went to England, everyone got to pick something she wanted to do? I wanted to see Queen Mary's doll house and it's understood to visit the crown jewels. You wanted to ride in a double decker bus.
    Love, Aunt Bubble
