Top 7 Moments of my 24th year:


7. November?- I misconstrue some lesser actor for Josh Hartnett. Am forced to eat my fair share of smug butter, dished out by sister the next time I see her.

6. October 17th- Realize that visuality is weird in Aphra Behn's Oroonoko.

5. December 28th- I run continuously for half an hour for the first time in one year and eight months.

4. Septemberish- A few friends unabashedly sing "Take On Me" in the midst of a crowded bar, because it's my favorite song.

3. December 5th- Meet big time professor at department holiday party who remarks, "So YOU'RE Kat. I know some students of yours who speak very highly of you."

2. End of October- One B.Fr. (name abbreviated to protect the innocent) asks a question roughly equivalent to "What exactly is literature, anyway?" in the midst of a Friday afternoon section, sparking one of the first inspired class discussions that I have had the pleasure of moderating.

1. June- Love of my life proposes to me on an island in the Pacific.


Hmm...yeah, that'll do.
