Well, I've been avoiding posting because I haven't had anything I wanted to say. Thus far, I haven't been particularly busy, except in trying to find a temporary job. See, Baylor thought that I wanted to take classes in the Fall, and by the time I got them to let me register for the summer, the Greek classes were full. Thus, no Greek for me this Summer. Which means I'll be graduating with my CSMath degree in three or four semesters, depending on how much I want "The Honours Programme" printed on my degree. If I figured it correctly, I'll be able to take 15 and 16 hour semesters for three semesters and graduate with a B.S. in CSMath with an English minor, but no honors. I guess it also depends on how soon I want to get a job/find a grad school. I'll be talking to Coppinger sometime this Summer to figure things out.
Tomorrow afternoon, I start working at the Grayson County Homeless Shelter, though I'll probably work more in the adjacent resale shop than the shelter itself. That's only for fourteen hours a week, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons. So I think I'll try to volunteer at the library or something when I can.
Aside from that, I've pretty much just been reading and playing old NES and SNES games on my computer. And a little programming. I finished Pride and Prejudice some time ago, finished Moby Dick this morning, and think I'll start in on The Origin of Species and/or Silas Marner now.
Posted by Gallagher at May 31, 2005 01:23 PMExcellent! Not only a post, but a post that involves good reading! Silas Marner is probably my favorite novel.
Posted by: Wilson at June 1, 2005 04:26 PMToo bad about the lack of Greek classes this summer. Oh well, at least it gives you a chance to do some "for-fun" reading.
Posted by: Martinez at June 2, 2005 02:31 PMAh, Moby Dick. Was this the completely unabridged version? With the numerous short chapters on various random aspects of whaling?
Posted by: Ardith at June 2, 2005 09:52 PMIndeed, it was the completely unabridged version. With numerous short chapters on many aspects of whaling, and one fairly lengthy chapter on cetology. While it would have been quite a bit shorter without them, they were generally entertaining.
