when I read, I read
I read at least five books at one time. Adorno, Said, Gramsci, Livy, Machiavelli, all big names for such a little mind as mine. I get overwhelmed with so many big ideas that I read one book for a while and then when I need a rest to digest all I've read I switch to one of the other books I'm reading.
Recently, I've had the overwhelming desire to just talk to someone about the stuff I'm reading and yet I can't find a single soul in this school who actually has the ability to hold an intellectual conversation. Even my professors seem suprised and twitchy at my approach with a question or comment.
So I am forced to stalk old professors from other schools for any type of conversation.
Another one of my outlets of late, I bought another beautiful notebook today to write stories and other such scribbles in, hopefully it will help me vent this hightened sense of intellectual passion in a huge gust of ink! ¶ 12:22 PM
