And that's the way it is in Minnesota and that's the way it is in Oklahoma that's the way Aristophanes and Homer wrote the Iliad and Lysistrata

decided on making some notes with the record cards i bought from staples the other day they're in four seperate colours so i'm going to split the colours into two sets like pink and blue for claudius and green and yellow for tiberius, and within that like pink is for provinces/frontiers/senate and blue is wives/freedmen/children/personality etc.

because those notes need to be done before my exam lmao which is like 2 weeks away oh dear

Lyrics: shores of california / the dresden dolls

And I I want to be your lover baby I want to be your man I want you to understand and I want to be your lover baby I want to be your girl blow a kiss and change the world

just watched four lions with my brother whilst eating left over easter eggs that my other brother and his wife never claimed..i'm going to read suetonius in a minute because i finally finished tacitus yayay

Lyrics: lover / devendra banhart

Your subtleties they strangle me I can't explain myself at all and all the wants and all the needs all I don't want to need at all the walls start breathing my mind's unweaving maybe it's best you leave me alone a weight is lifted on this evening I give the final blow

had my hair cut today

it's a little shorter than i had it last time my intention was to grow it because i miss having long hair but tbh the minute it grows past a certain length it just irritates the hell out of me therefore i have it cut again

so my dreams of having jessie j hair are too distant to even think about..who knows though, maybe one day?

i also bought some hair dye it's like a gingery brown colour it's not too dissimiliar to my natural colour but it's more ginger, hopefully it should work..now i'm just sitting around because my brother and sister in law are coming over tonight i've just done today's reading of suetonius/tacitus and it was about messalina who was a complete bitch

just saying

Lyrics: it ends tonight / all american rejects

And I'm here to remind you of the mess you left when you went away it's not fair to deny me of the cross I bear that you gave to me you you you oughta know

i know this sounds crazy but i'm probably going to actually read tacitus and suetonius when i've finished college..when i read the prescribed sections i find myself reading on and looking in the index for people they refer to just to find out what happens to them next so i figure it would make sense to just read the whol thing and enhance my knowledge on the subject

of course it will come about a month too late considering my exam is at the end of may and i finish for college at the end of june, but i'll do it for me haha.

besides some of the stories are really interesting, as a rule i'm generally more interested in the mythology or greek side of classics but the romans were just so messed up that their personal lives were fascinating with so many twists and turns..i can see why it makes a good tv show or a good novel you know because some of it sounds like it shouldn't be real..but it is

i just wish that things like provinces and frontiers and the senate and stuff like that weren't involved in the exam because i'd be fine haha
