Okay. Picking from the options for my English 300 paper, due Friday, 5-7 pages:
Three options automatically eliminated on grounds of boringness. Remaining options all have to do with either class or gender. I definitely want to do the gender one.
Next choice to be made: "May Day" or "The Diamond as Big as the Ritz"? Trying to remember... well, "May Day" has actual interesting women in it. So that's settled, then:
A gender-based reading of "May Day."
Now, the English 349 paper, also due Friday, no length limit given.
Step one: go to office hours (after Chinese today) and ask for an extension.
Topic: "Trace a theme through two or three of the novels." I definitely want to write about the idea of "learning to be a woman" in The Princesse de Cleves and Les Liaisons Dangereuses. While at office hours, I'll talk to him about this topic, and also maybe ask if it's okay to use Gigi as well.
... Oh man. I'm a hopeless nerd, aren't I?
