文語と日本史を勉強したいなあ
Oct. 22nd, 2006 06:54 pmYou know, I'd really love to study classical Japanese someday. UBC Vancouver actually offers it. Maybe I should keep thinking about going there for grad school...
Of course, the linguist in me then considers how they decide what "classical" Japanese is. I mean, language is always, always changing. By studying classical Japanese, I will necessarily be studying a language not yet used by some of history's Japanese, as well as a language considered classical to other non-modern Japanese.
But it'd still be cool. :)
(I'd also like to finally read that book I have on Japanese history over winter break. *nods*)
My family's getting a new dryer and dishwasher. Yay! I mean, our dryer is just... You should hear it squeak. Actually, I think I'm gonna make a phone post of it later tonight. That, and you have to place something in front of the door to hold it shut. And it takes forever for clothes to dry. I have to say, I'm a little sad about the dishwasher, though. Not that I've been doing the dishes at all recently, which I feel kinda bad about, but I've actually come to like washing dishes by hand.
Anyways, I need to get back to work.

Why do I get so excited over a single credit class?...
