So, got all A's for the semester. Which, yay! Been home since Tuesday afternoon, have been concerting and working, and video-gaming, and have been obnoxiously sick through all of the above. Have another concert tomorrow (Sugarland) and I have two more chapters of Portal 2 left to play before I beat it! [Poll #1743841]

Yay A's!! *^5s* You go, girl!! =D

Your professor is insane. =( That's ridiculous. At least he should give you the summer to think it over before coming up with something.

What areas of history interest you the most? I have this idea of writing on trying civilians in military tribunals, as was done after the Civil War and Lincoln's assassination, as well as post-World War II with Nuremberg and the Tokyo tribunals. But, that may bore you to tears. ;)

Thanks! How'd you do?

He is completely ridiculous. He also has this crazy plan (and he is the only prof in the rotation that does this) to contact 4 or 5 experts in whatever field we pick to do our papers on and send it to them at the end of the semester. So, yay for that. If the professor in charge of Capstone in the Spring were not 1000 times more ridiculous and flaky, I would have waited. Ugh.

Eh, my area of interest tends to change a lot. Like, I love Greece/Rome, but my brain is kind of afraid of those sources. I tend to like Civil War (Eh, Revolution is growing on me) on up in American History. I considered ideas on somehow relating Sherlock Holmes to something historical, or maybe something on Arthur Conan Doyle, or Arthurian Legend (but, sadly, legend...) so I don't know.

I graduated, so that's something! ;) I finished my seminar paper on time, which is good, and the final I had yesterday went well, so I just have some stuff for Monday that won't suck too badly.

That is pretty cool that he plans to send you guys' work to experts, I wish my professors would do that (actually, no I don't, that freaks me out)

Oooh, American history is win =D As is Greece/Rome, but I totally agree with you on the sources *shudders* Relating SH to something historical would be epic. Oh!! That reminds me of a paper I wrote for an English class a few years ago about the intertwining of detective fiction and forensic science. I dunno, maybe there's something you can do with how ACD/SH helped fuel the development of forensic science, or would that be too not historyish?
