consumed with the thoughts of a handsome and smart philosopher and the greatness of nutella

i was the teacher again today, and it went well. i didn't have as much fun as last time, but it was fine. the kids really liked looking their names up in the name books. some of the "macho" boys surprised me and wanted to share with the class the sentimental meanings of their names. for instance, fidel was very excited to tell everyone that his name meant "advocate for the poor." i had told him earlier what the word advocate meant, and he wanted to make sure the class knew too. it was cute.

tonight i'm determined to finish my paper that was due last monday. i was really stressing about it being so late, but i found out yesterday that i am farther than everyone else. i'll have to add another ten pages to this paper by december so in preparation, i started reading jane austen's mansfield park yesterday. if i read 33 pages a night, i'll have it done in three weeks. one day down. 20 to go.

ps--29 days till the big day.
