her neverborn child still haunts her now as she speeds down the freeway
Registration's in a few weeks, although we don't have schedules yet. I've been looking through the course catalog and feeling distressingly lost. I *need* to take Chaucer, if only to get it out of the way, and I *should* take Doug Patey's class for the same reason. I'd rather take the Victorians, but I'd rather take Victorian Lit than the Victorian Novel, and the former's only offered next fall. I'd hate to miss another chance to study Browning - my forgotten exception to the Victorian-poets-suck rule.
Other than the English classes, though, I really don't know what I want to take.
Nothing looks good in the anthro department, and there aren't many other departments that interest me. I wish I could take a physics class and be *sure* it wouldn't be over my head, but I'm not willing to risk it. Though I loved physics and high school, and I rather miss it. It made sense in a way bio and chem never did.
There's a class in the classics department that looks intriguing, Gender and Sexuality in Greco-Roman World Culture. It's taught by Nancy Schumate, though, and that's who Nadine had for Latin, I think, and I've heard scary things about her. So, I don't know.
If I feel like braving a history course, there's Revolutionary Europe 1789-1989. I don't remember much from my tenth grade European history class, but I do remember liking the French and Russian revolutionary bits. I'd get that and more. I'm just not sure I want the more.
It's freaking me out to realize I have only three semesters left. Ever. Unless I make major changes in my tentative life plans, these next three semesters will be *it* for me and the world of academia.
That's four classes, anyway, but I'm sure at least two will conflict. I'm going to stop thinking about it, I think, and finish reading for my actual *present* classes.
