The world's worst parallel parker.

[icarus]

FYI, the Greek History class continues to be torture. I've yet another prompt that baby-steps the writer into writing exactly what the professor wants to hear.

But it's almost over. One 10-page essay, and it's over.

ETA: About halfway through that essay. Taking a break from it.

Enjoy the world's worst parallel parker. Hee. Okay, not parallel parking. But WG and I counted seven attempts.

Exactly!

And my essay is seven types of godawful.

Not to mention: how is Hesiod supposed to understand Classical Attic Greek? As if there would've no difference in vocabulary, dialect, pronunciation...

Oh, we can't get into the logic of this assignment. Therein lies madness.

I'm writing my Indian history assignment now:

Compare the history of the Mauryan, Kushana, and Gupta dynasties, summarizing as far as possible their geographic purview, length of rule, patterns of origin and expansion, and possible factors in their successes and their declines. In what ways are the histories of these three dynasties similar, and in what ways are they different? To what extent are the patterns of their history typical (or untypical) of those of Indian dynasties generally?

Ahhh. A sensible question that demands actual thought, rather than psychic abilities.

It's like a balm for the soul.

It is! *breathes deeply the sanity of my Indian history professor*

PS: my Classics professors would've bitchslapped yours, I think.
