So I got back from Newfoundland and it's surprising how, on one hand, it was so easy to get back into the swing of things with the people here that I love and the structure of classes that I've been taking for the past month, while, on the other hand, it doesn't quite seem right and the readings seem to be harder to do. However that might have something to do with that whole Christianity issue.

It seems like there're more people here who believe and seriously devote (okay, maybe devote is the wrong word...) themselves to a religion. Or maybe that's just because it turns out that some of my best friends here are religious (Mostly Anglican, but there's also a large Jewish population. And I'm not sure of the denominations of some of the people I know are Christian).

I wonder if it's because King's is an Anglican school, or because people know more about what they believe once they've gotten into University. Also I wonder if it's just that I'm noticing it more. I don't think so, but I've been known to be mistaken.

In any case we're now reading Augustine's Confessions which I'm finding not as easy as my tutor said it was, but not as bad as the Old Testament.

I've made myself a profile on my dal e-mail account so it now uses my name which is awesome. And I stole some bread from Prince Hall so that I could make a turkey sandwich with leftovers, but I think it might be stale by now. Oh well.

And Papers suck. I doing mine on Aristotle and I'm worried that i don't have enough to say, but I didn't have any idea what to do for any of the other questions either. Plato and the Aeneid with a splash of Aristotle and the Mystery Cults don't make for good essay questions apparently.

Also... I wonder if our dear Mr. Fournier has finished marking last weeks papers yet...

Augustine a downer? First I've heard of it...
