Well, I've selected my courses for the fall - Fundamentals of Chinese, Comic Spirit (a Comparative literature course), the Short Story, Math, and California History.

sixteen units.

Ennui, please don't strike me now.

My favorite princess story would be The Ordinary Princess by M.M. Kaye, and I love the Rackham book of Fairy tales only for the drawings -- but cajoled from nomadvagabondGwyn...my inner princess:


Take The Princess Quiz by Azure Eyes


You are The Princess of Quite a Bit


Your kingdom is comprised of modest crafts and tradesmen.
Though your title of Princess is mostly honourary, you still manage to take advantage of the freedom and privileges your sovereignity provides.
You have time to enjoy the finer things in life, but keep your indulgences to a minimal level, beleiving that one should waste not, want not.
You never forget your prestigieous heritage, but you prefer to mingle with the commoners, relishing in the special freedoms they have.
Your life revolves around tradition and celebration, spending those times with the ones you love.
Level-headed and considerate, you are well liked by all your subjects.
Your crown is a thin band of jewels.
Your throne is a simple chair that sits beside your mother’s throne.

from England for All Seasons, by Susan Allen Toth

The best kind of rain, of course, is a cozy rain. This is the kind the anonymous medieval poet makes me remember, the rain that falls on a day when you'd just as soon stay in bed a little longer, write letters or read a good book by the fire, take early tea with hot scones and jam, and look out the streaked windows with complacency.


When I get to England, the first place I want to go to is Rough Trade Records.
