less than ideal
Is it too soon to whine about classes so early in the semester? Frankly there aren't any interesting seminars offered, well, classes that are up my alley anyway. I am, however, excited about one class on Cultural studies. So what do you do? Somehow make it a place in which I can thrive? A year ago I really thought I would be able to study author X or Critic Y and Z and it would consume my very being, but perhaps it's just a reverie. I am finding that all the interesting material i discover are books, ideas, opinions that I'm not studying in classes or with colleagues. Maybe that is the point, eh? It's all autonomous reading and research, which isn't terrible but some guidance, more direction early in our studies would be helpful -- no, useful in really seeing ourselves out of our box, the what-do-we-do-with-our-master's. What to do? Talk to as many professors who are willing to help, I guess. What is there left to do? Solicit advice and whatnot.
