concerts, heroes, and defrosting fridges

so much to write about, so little time.
I shall start with news #1, which is that I am going to see Kings of Convenience in a few days. Kristine got me a ticket last week, and Patrick is coming as well.

this week has been insane at university. The Sound and Silence seminar was really good, but 6 lectures in a row (with only 5-minute breaks in-between, and 40 minutes for lunch) is a little too much for my tiny brain to concentrate on. The first speaker talked about John Cage, it was really interesting and thorough. Another lecturer rushed us through Yoko Ono, John Cage, Rauschenberg, Heidegger, Bruce Nauman, Victor Turner, the liminal space, and back to Yoko Ono in a little over 40 minutes – it was absolutely insane. the two lectures this morning were really good – the second one was amazing. It was beautiful as well as interesting and it got my brain working and thinking so much of a million things, I felt so much more perceptive to the outside world.

As for Fantoft life, we are getting used to sitting around in the C/D Block kitchens late at night talking about a billion different things. It took me a while last night to believe that it really was 5am, and that I really should be getting to sleep since I had to get up at 8. And because Fantoft is such an exciting place where adventures take place everyday, Ana and I decided to defrost our fridge three days ago. Our kitchen was half-flooded, courtesy of melting ice, and, after hours of me using a nail as an icebreaker, Texas Chainsaw Massacre-style, we removed a gigantic piece of ice from our freezer.

Score!
