Three Different Things

I have been intermittently working on a new version of my topics paper, as the one I previously submitted was not exactly received with flowers and virgins. So I, being the me that I am, decided to go for something even weirder, because I don't take too kindly to criticism like "you need to explain this more." Some initial reactions to this new thing to which you shan't be privy have been along the lines of "you're all over the place."

A flash animation.

I went to an English department enkai on Friday night at a yakitori restaurant in Toyohashi. A couple of teachers I haven't seen since they left at the end of the last school year showed up, so I had a chance to chat. I was bald when I last saw one of them, Ozawa-sensei, and she commented on how much longer my hair is now (not much at all, really). She also remarked how she thought I looked better without hair; I do not agree. I asked her to explain why she thought so. Her explanation: "perhaps it is because you have a beautifully shaped head."

In re: yr topics paper, take heart, Nicholas: mine was not received with anything even approaching flowers and virgins. I believe it was more or less described as a "failed experiment" at one point.

The flash animation, while fascinating, has left me feeling thoroughly woozy.
