i bought my textbooks for next semester at lunch today, and am feeling raped as usual. while they obscenely overcharge you, still i was pretty excited about what i bought. The Physics for Poets class sounds really fun, and the Anthro class: Myth, Ritual and Symbol has a book on shamans as one of the texts. I also now own a whole shelf's worth of James Baldwin. and i'll be reading the Morte D'Arthur and continuing my obsession with Spenser.
i'm looking forward to this semester, if with a slightly nervous eye. eep.
as i was walking back to work, kind of late, i passed by Fernow Hall (which is right next to Rice Hall, where i work) and i remembered that i was told a few days ago that WASP boy works there full time now. i also note that he lives in the apt. building next to me. considering our proximity, it is somewhat amazing (if fortunate) that i have only run into him once this year. this makes me wonder: how many people there are who live their lives right alongside each other, and yet miraculously only intersect on the rarest of occasions. with the amount of people that form everyone's history, why is it we are always surprized to run into someone we used to know?
