I ended up dropping Italian so that I could take Theatre History 201 with my sister. And as a result, that afternoon hour was free and I was able to accept a job offer from Dr. Huntsman (to be a TA for his freshman Honors Book of Mormon class). So it all worked out quite well. I’ve spent the week getting my laptop set up (it’s almost done) and that’s about it, really. Watched Charly last night and it was very moving.

I’ll be updating this site over the next month or two, fixing broken links and adding my mission e-mails (“Adventures in Thailand”) and all that. I’ll also add an article on how to get Thai working nicely on Linux (once I figure out how to do it).

Oh, last night I was reading Wheelock’s Latin for fun and had two observations. First, reading Latin was much easier than I remembered it being; and two, every time I tried to translate the English phrases into Latin, my brain translated it into Thai first. I had to force myself to think Latin instead of Thai. Hopefully I’ll be okay with Greek and Egyptian this semester.
