The conference session with Mr. Lovas last Friday went really well. I came out of his office with a better sense of where I was going with the Magnum Opus document. I'm still a little unsure of what exactly I'm going to do from beginning to end -- but that will definitley come along as I continue to process and think of ways to approach my paper. But definitely got a few (good, hopefully) ideas going for me.

On another note, I wanted to reflect on the past two weeks of poetry presentations in class a little bit. I've always liked most of the poetry I've read in school and I thought it was nice that everyone brought in their own poet. Most of them were ones I've never read works from or I've never heard of at all. But still, whether it was singing along to Joni Mitchell, having a group reading of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven", or just listening to some international poems -- all of them were very interesting and enjoyable to listen to.

I just started reading our next literary work, Shakespeare's A Midsummer's Night Dream and I'm anticipating our little performances from it. : )

Have a good weekend~
