So I've been doing a lot of research, reading a lot of different books in new areas I've never really explored before in any of my other english lit classes (literary psychology - who knew?) and this are starting to take shape. Sort of.
Reflecting on my final project I've realized that I haven't written a paper in a really long time. And I think I might have almost forgotten how. Is that even possible? I suspect it might just be my natural laziness coming out. And my complete disbelief that I decided to do a real paper over a fiction piece. I feel bad for my group-mates who'll have to read the jumble of thoughts that is my first draft. I'm not really sure if I have a clear thesis yet, which is probably a bad thing to admit this late in the game, but I'm stuck with this topic now so I'm going to try to make the best of what I've got.
How do I manage to miss the two classes where we talk about my favorite books of the semester? First I was out for Lying, now I miss Never Let Me Go. Definitely a dissapointment that I didn't get to hear what everyone had to say about the novel, but it's been interesting reading your posts.
Wow, so the end of the semester is finally here. I was going to write something emotional and nostalgic here, but then realized I didn't have anything in that vein to say. So instead I leave you with a very poignant conversation I had with my friend Mike Sanders online a few days ago (and my fellow MFAers will know that Mike Sanders matters). So enjoy and discuss!
