I've just been reassigned! I am no longer working with Dr. Corbin. Instead, I'm working with Dr. Don Parkerson, about whom I know nothing and who I can find no info about on the history dept. site. Apparently he is a great guy. I guess I am now 'a marker' (arccording to Dr. Corbin), although I think it is more of a general TA thing. I'll be helping with an American History class (buh?) and a Historiography class (keen!). The reason for the reassignment is that the guy who was supposed to be his assistant is in a fieldschool, and really can't be available for what he needs to do. I'm not sure (and neither is Dr. Corbin) why *I* was picked, but, whatever. I'm dissapointed that I won't get a chance to have interesting projects to work on, a bit, but the teaching experience will also be useful.

I just e-mailed him, so I will see when I hear back, I guess. I thought I was supposed to be doing work today, but it looks like not... Guess I'll go read more Castex (wooh!) until I have my French translation test at 1:00...
Mood:: 'Castex!' Castex!

Okay, so the thing I had to translate was a page an a half from a textbook on corporations during the Englightement (Which didn't occur to me as being 'Le temps des Lumières' until after I was done -_-).

Anyway, this being over now, plus my reassignment for working wmeans that I have extra time to finish Castex, which means that I will probably go up to the lab tonight to work on it/play. Anyone going to be around?

Also, I forgot to write about my scent (Iago), again, and now it is very faded and hard to describe. It is kind of sweet-musky but with that same musty undertone I described the other day. It didn't seem to last that long this time... but in general, the scent isn't something I think I will adore.

I have furniture! *And* I have the internet at home!....kinda. I can't seem to connect to either IRC or ICQ, which is highly annoying. I suspect I will have to deal with it another time, though, since I haven't read any Castex since about 5 and I still have a good seventy pages to go >_< Glad to have my stuff, not so glad to have lost time...

Edit: Okay, you know me, I couldn't leave well enough alone. I did get IRC to work ^-^
Mood:: 'rushed' rushed

Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] devradigestion who was theiving too.

Comment to this entry with a post you think would be totally out of character for me--something I'd never talk about, never discuss, never say, anything. It has to be completely out of character. Then post this in your own journal.

Do not look at what the other people wrote until after you have commented!
