Foucault fail.

Today was not an exciting day. I woke up with the same stupid headache I've had all week. Nothing makes it go away :( But other than that, things have been good.

I went to class from 11-12. I really didn't want to go. I knew there would only be a few people there, as always. And today we talked about Foucault. I don't know anything about Foucault, and I don't have the book. I never bought it, and I've done just fine without it. But the information that I found on Foucault was really...complicated. It was not easy to understand. So I kind of gave up trying to figure it out. Of course, there were THREE people in class, none of whom were supposed to present. Our TA asked us what we thought of Foucault, and I told him that I had been looking for information, but that it honestly made no sense. So he explained it all, which was nice. I can't say that his explanations made total sense either, but it made more sense than the info I found online. Oh, and I'm not excited to read about the next lecture, because apparently the theorist DELIBERATELY made his text as obscure and hard to read as possible. He thought that if it was too easy to interpret, it would just become a tool of society? I'm definitely not looking forward to reading that...

After class, I met Melisa for lunch, and then I napped. I have NOT been sleeping well at night, so I think I'm going to do a lot of napping this weekend. We don't have plans--Ireland was a bust last weekend, and we really aren't feeling motivated to try anything else. I'm looking forward to relaxing. We are having a movie watching weekend--and all the movies we are watching are dancing movies. We watched Dirty Dancing today, as well as Dirty Dancing 2: Havana Nights. I probably should have predicted how the second one would end, considering current relations between Cuba and the US. Kind of disappointing. Anyway, we've compiled a list of movies that we plan on watching this weekend. Between a few different online movie websites, and Youtube, I'm pretty sure we'll be able to watch all of them.

I do need to edit my two papers this weekend, but I'm not overly concerned. I don't have class Monday. In fact, I don't have my psych class for the last few weeks of the semester because he ran out of things to lecture about. I guess I'll enjoy my free time?

Oh, I also read Melissa's senior seminar paper today. I really enjoyed it, actually. It's about women during the Civil War. She got to analyze diaries of different women, which I think is pretty cool. It was way more interesting than any of the articles I read for my paper. Bah.

Other than that, today was a pretty laid-back day. My entire weekend will be like that, so don't expect particularly exciting blogs, although I'm sure I'll find something to write about ;)
