So I've started honors now... hmmmm its very different to anything I've done before. The orientation was a bit crushing, because I really want to do a creative writing dissertation but the supervisor for creative writing introduced himself by saying that we are too young and immature to write because we have no idea what we are talking about, and that he hates taking students on at honors level. great. So have to decide whether to still push through with creative writing even though chances are I'm going to be told my words are worthless and I'm not good enough the whole year... terrific. I'm already feeling stupid, everyone in my class is so immensely intelligent and well read, I actually feel a bit out of place. Anyway, it can only get better, and some of the stuff I'm reading about is very stimulating- I'm especially enjoying my course on commemorative culture and 9/11, based around literary theory. In other news, I'm lonely. Its weird how everyone's lives have changed so quickly, feel like we are all growing up so fast, I'm getting left behind! I think peter pan said you take the first evening star to the left then straight on to morning or something... if I could I would! I don't like change :( I miss my friends :(
