but hey guys! how is everyone? i've finally started classes, and i LOVE them. had institutional critique (with my favourite professor!) and then postmodernism with another awesome professor yesterday; loved them both, cannot wait to start reading for them. then this morning, went to my michel foucault & the arts seminar, and the syllabus looks amazing for that as well (the reader cost $57 and weighs approximately as much as a small child, but it's got all the readings we need, so major ups to that). i'm also getting a really good vibe from the professor who, by the way, comes off as a cross between jeffrey tambor and louis black. awesome. he seems engaging enough and, though he rambles quite a bit (and i mean what did i expect, it's an entire course about foucault for fuck's sake), i feel as though he'll be able to keep our focus and heighten our understanding of the course material. one can only hope.
what are you all taking!?
side note: if you haven't already, you all should check out the Classico® brand vodka sauce. i find it deeeeelicious -- so creamy, but just the right consistency so as not to smother my pasta or coat my throat and make me want to vomit. i think i'm going to make grilled chicken penne alla vodka tomorrow. i would do it today, but i'd forgotten to buy pasta (aka i kind of want to wait for my mom to buy it for me at national wholesale, where it's cheaper, and then bring it to me at school when she comes around to fetch some stuff to bring home wow nobody really needs to hear about this, ugh). and SPEAKING of food, i went food shopping earlier and my basket was so heavy that i got a nosebleed from straightening up to lift it cuz i kept putting it on the ground. idunno, it was kind of embarrassing, but it also cleared my nasal passages, so...silver lining! but yeah, i must start exercising. i need more energy, and my hamstrings/everything else are really tight. i wish i could take pilates for dancers, cuz that really strengthened my back.
...
um, back to food: what are some other things i could make for dinner? i've lately fallen into a pattern of pita-hummus-baby spinach and/or premade mixed salad. of course, tuna out of the can is always a nice thing to throw in there. i've bought chicken breast to grill on the foreman (heh), but umm that's still not too much to work with. someone suggested zucchini and squash; i say too much work. cereal and milk or flatbread and yogurt are my fallback meals at all times. ugh, i'm so lazy.
