Snow day tomorrow! We haven't had one of those in like half a decade.
Quick review on this week's readings:
Oct 28: "Some Thoughts on Education" by Locke: 3/5 Kids learn best via Boggle gambling.
Oct 29: Poems by Keats: 2/5 Nightingales, man.
Oct 30: "Science of Geology" by Lyell: 1/5 Not wrong, just not well written.
Oct 31: BUUUURNNNNSSSSS: 0/5 IT'S OVER!
Nov 1: The Tempest by Shakespeare: 2/5 I kinda want to go all the way down to one for this one, since there are more deserving Shakespeares.
Nov 2: The Divine Comedy by Dante: 3/5 Artistic censorship.
Nov 3: Pliny's Letters: 3/5 Just a little torture to be safe!
Average: 2 The end of the "Burns Curve"
Overall Thoughts on The Project:
I cannot express how happy I will be to never have to read Burns again. I'm proud that I actually read (admittedly, kinda skimmed sometimes) every Burns day. I think that's the biggest challenge of this whole project. He's just so terrible. And barely even in English.
