Field Trip City
http://fieldtripcity.blogspot.com/2008/05/today-is-my-last-full-day-in-toronto.html
Thursday, May 1, 2008. Tonight I'm getting together with Matt to have a beer and say so long for the time being. I'll have to spend the greater part of the day packing, but first I have to take back the rest of my library books and pay my fines, otherwise I'm pretty sure U of T will fail me out of spite. Last night I ordered one of the new iMacs from Future Shop. I should have it next week. It's the newest computer I've ever purchased and it's effing pretty:. I'm off. Tomorrow will be my last entry.

Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Up at 8:30, or what I'd define as an ungodly hour. Yesterday I asked for a one-day extension on my paper. I finished my arguments for Donnie Darko and wrote 13 annotations. I'm starting to think I might pull this off. A friend of mine on Facebook posted a great note about words and phrases us grad students are relieved to no longer have to use now that classes are coming to an end. Here's my list:. April 29, 2008 at 10:12 PM. It's interesting that Andrea says that. I got about ei...

Friday, May 2, 2008. Well, this is it, I suppose. Pretty much just have to shut down and pack up the computer. It didn't take too long to pack. I'm not leaving with too much more than what I came here with. Note to self: don't go out drinking the night before moving again, no matter how good of an idea it seems. And if I do, stay away from red wine. It was good seeing Matt one last time anyway. We had dinner at Mackenzie's, a sports bar near his place. I had the chicken fingers. May 2, 2008 at 7:29 PM.

Wednesday, April 30, 2008. To blog or pass out. So many options. They give Master's degrees to jokers like me. I'm assuming. We'll see how the marks pan out. Titles of the main essays and projects I've written this year:. Balancing Acts: Comparing Storytelling Media Across Representations of Death in Venice. Memo-rizing Touch of Evil: The Execution and Effect of Orson Welles’ Intentions. Embodying Africadia: Representations of the Female Body in the Works of Oni the Haitian Sensation and Afua Cooper.

Field Trip City: May 2008

Sunday, May 4, 2008. Http:/ 2amtraffic.blogspot.com. Friday, May 2, 2008. Well, this is it, I suppose. Pretty much just have to shut down and pack up the computer. It didn't take too long to pack. I'm not leaving with too much more than what I came here with. I've really missed my girlfriend. I'm starting a new journal tomorrow once I'm back in Ottawa. I'll post the address here. Thursday, May 1, 2008. Tonight I'm getting together with Matt to have a beer and say so long for the time being. I'll have...

Field Trip City: January 2008
http://fieldtripcity.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 31, 2008. I walked home from Keele Station and got shoved by a prick who wouldn't give me enough room on the sidewalk. No way I was going around him. I had "dinner" at McDonald's and thought the cashier short-changed me, but she was probably right. Wednesdays are starting to tick me off. Always felt like giving in. To the feeling I can't win. But I took it on the chin. Now I'm finally cashing in. Meeting every day with the rising sun. Wednesday, January 30, 2008. Glad I didn't go first.

Field Trip City: October 2007
http://fieldtripcity.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 31, 2007. Today was much better. It started out with Touch of Evil and proceeded into another lunch at the Red Room with Tony and Eileen. About three quarters of the restaurant was furnished with couches and upholstery. Tony and Eileen both seem like nice people and they're entertaining to listen to. Eileen really reminds me of Esther. Tomorrow I'm meeting with my Opera group before heading over to Matt's to do up Halloween. Have a happy one. The war of the worlds. I did manage to fini...

Field Trip City: March 2008
http://fieldtripcity.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 31, 2008. I slept in late today. Yesterday I hit campus for awhile and browsed some electronic literature websites, and I think I'm going to shift the focus of my avant-garde paper a bit to discuss how the "reader" of a text is transformed into a "user," or a reader-author hybrid. I discovered some really strange art websites, of which there really is no shortage. Tomorrow is the first day of April. The beginning of the end! Sunday, March 30, 2008. I've always been really curious about the ...

Field Trip City: September 2007
http://fieldtripcity.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 30, 2007. I spent the day listening to The Marriage of Figaro, which I'll be seeing live on Tuesday. I wanted to get a feel for what the opera is actually about. I also watched Vanilla Sky, which I own but hadn't seen in a few years. It was more contrived than I remember it being, but it's certainly an ambitious film. I wrote 833 words. I'm trying to read as much Austin Clarke as I can before I fall asleep. It's going to be a busy week. The marriage of figaro. It's been a long nuit.

Field Trip City: December 2007
http://fieldtripcity.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 28, 2007. I'm back in Toronto for the night. My last day in Peterborough was spent checking out I Am Legend with the fam and braving my father's 401 driving skills (everyone arrived in one piece). Tomorrow is the day. I'm catching a plane at 6:15 PM out of Pearson and at 9:55 AM local time on Saturday I'm scheduled to touch down in Berlin. I get to see and touch and feel Andrea after spending four months apart from her. The idea is exhilarating. Wednesday, December 26, 2007. When everyon...
