Feature thing will restart sometime after midterms

Wed Oct 21, 2009, 10:14 AM
Dunno...if anyone remembers when I did it--but I'm going to try to start featuring people in my journal again. And also start cleaning up my watch list a little--if I try to let the "watch deviant" page load it crashes Firefox. Like seriously. It can be the only tab I have open and it'll crash. Tip: Don't watch 2000 people. Ever. Learn from my mistakes.

Um...Got a chance to catch up on my Art History reading (still want to have the book count as a PE class), which is good, you know, since I have a reading quiz today. I'm not "caught up" in the most technical sense, but I have skimmed and caught some key terms. A "tholos" is a Mycenaean burial mound composed of a corbelled arched dome, and is often referred to as a beehive tomb because of it's shape. The hypostyle halls of Egypt can be seen in theory in Gothic architecture to allow milky light to sift into an otherwise dark hall. Open court yards in the middle of houses/complexes are seen in both Egypt and on the island of Crete and are seen throughout the Mediterranean in either an Egyptian or Minoan style, and the columns of Egypt are semi-replicated and run with by the Greeks, while the column style of the Minoans was another style which permeated the Mediterranean and Aegean. Yay!

Um yeah.

My history class was cancelled today so instead of studying for Art (where I have like 4 chapters to catch up on, luckily the midterm is not this week), I read my fifty four pound art history book.

This is turning out to be a nice Wednesday. And holy shit I love "Let's Dance," and "Scary Monsters," albums today--holy holy crap!

But I'm not the biggest fan of the Panic in Detroit rerecord on Scary Monsters--it doesn't induce panic in the new version that he did. Hmmm...
