The final statistics
29 pages
8,688 words
13 poems (Greek and Latin) translated and analyzed
2 hilarious epigrammatists
2 crazy emperors (this could be a sitcom)
1 semester-long junior qualifying exam (a.k.a. qual, a.k.a. qualrus)
/victory
My orals board is on Friday. I'm scared (I know I shouldn't be, but I can't help it). Really I should just put it out of my head and focus on the fact that I still have four papers to finish before Renn Fayre rolls around in a week and a half.
I have been an awful blogger as of late (sorry to my non-existent readers!). I promise frequent updates in the future - especially once the end of the semester rolls around and I will have oodles of time and will be reading/translating/researching many delightful things.
A wordle for your enjoyment:
