a journal of my adventure back to college to finish my degree

 
In The Void

There's an eerily beautiful and simple tune composed and performed back-in-the-day by one of my brother's many highschool bands. I don't know if I've got the lyrics quite right. But sometimes this song comes to me with a chill, and I embrace the pain... let it wrap me like a shroud.

"...long snowy nights
and rumors --they call
waiting in fear
for your soul to fall
a runaway flees
dropping the knife

...there's nothing
in the world
that I can call mine."

Presentations

In my Intro to Theater course, we were assigned "production groups." Our task is to hypothetically put on a full-scale production. This includes budget considerations, etc. We're putting on John Osborne's Luther.
We also have a class presentation on "theater of the absurd," which we are doing as a theater of the absurd. I hope this works.

In my Asian Philosophy class I'll soon be doing a presentation on the ancient game called "go." If you are interested in the rules, here is a fairly basic explanation, step by step. The "next" button is in the top right corner of the screen.
