The long and winding September

Nothing has really happened since I last wrote in here, but, as usual, I must keep up with my once-a-month policy.  So, here I am.

Since I last wrote, I have turned twenty-three.  That's probably the biggest news: my birthday, which was the twenty-ninth of August.  It was, for the first time since I started college, on a Friday, which also happens to be the day I don't have any classes this semester, so I got to spend the day at home with Kat and Lauren before going to Colton's for dinner.  I also got my hair re-did.  'Twas a fun day!

Let's seeee, what else?

We went to the Steampunk festival in Hannibal, which was a new thing.  It was small, but it was fun!  Actually, it was just nice to get out of Kirksville for a while.

Ummm . . . . yeah, life's been pretty uneventful.  I'm enjoying most of my classes, but Québécois Literature is definitely my favorite.  It's not just me being biased - I truly do like the literature we've been studying.  I also love the historical/cultural aspect of the class.  The professor has been very helpful to me in thinking about grad school (hopefully in Québec), and she invited me to attend a Scholars' luncheon with her today.  'Twas very nice of her.  I felt special.

Annnnd that's about it.  Bruno Pelletier's new album (with Guy St-Onge) was released yesterday, and even though Lauren is going to pick up a hard copy for me when she is in Québec next week (SNIFFFFF), I couldn't resist or wait any longer, so I just bought it on iTunes.  Halfway through right now, and I love it.  I had some reservations since it's so different from his usual stuff, but it seems Monsieur Pelletier can do no wrong.  I absolutely love it.  Go buy it.  Now.
