Cruising through the week and loving it
May 4th, 2005 by MrLuxuryFashionGuruYesterday was Saturday-on-a-Tuesday for me. After turning in my final short paper for HSA-12 (dear God please let this one be well-received) and taking my ES 6 exam (unexpectedly long), *edits out details about regular Jason-related procedural irregularities/excitement* I felt like I basically had nothing to do for the near future. Which of course is nonsense if I consider the two response papers, pile of reading, two final papers (20-25 pages, and one of them has to be in French!), two lab reports (requiring statistics, yuck) and four final exams I have to get through before the end of the semester.
But in any case, I felt like I could take a break. So I wrote a Crimson story on the planned celebrations for Boston’s 375th birthday (four months of street fairs, cultural performances and special events), and went to a panel discussion at the KSG about a controversial paper entitled “The Death of Environmentalism” (email me if you want a copy) that pitted the authors of the paper against two environmentalist bigwigs and a professor of environmental politics (who was very impressive – I think I’ll try and take her class next Fall). That was pretty fascinating.
Last night and today were more of the same. I went in to the Crimson to get that story edited, got tickets to various performances this weekend, dropped by Jill’s office for a chat, gave a very intimate admissions tour (with a French prospective student – so many French people around lately!), and attended the very fancy pre-departure ice-cream social/briefing at the Center for European Studies.
I really need to start getting some work done… like doing the Hist 1856 readings.

This weekend I’m planning on seeing Brahms’ Requiem on Friday evening, the Bach Society’s 50th anniversary concert on Saturday (I’ve always wanted to see this), and “L’Echange” a French play by Paul Claudel, on Sunday afternoon. Saturday is also Arts First weekend, so the Dins will be performing a number of times and I’ll try and catch Vox Jazz (they’re amazing!) too.

Re: “Oh, then why all the “concern” about farmers being sued for saving seed?” I think you are stating this in relation to the comment “farmers buy new hybrid seed each year.”
