Dear friends, if I was excited about this class before ((and I was)), I am completely, out of my mind stoked about it now. There's only 10 or 11 people in this class. Again, all girls, though none of them are from TCU. I'm starting to think guys just don't study abroad. Our professor's name is Cecilia ((pronounced Chechilia)) and she is so glad to be there that you don't want class to end, even on happy syllabus day. I'm just saying, when a final paper sounds like the greatest assignment you've ever had, that teacher is something special. We're going to read a lot, but it's going to be from lots of different sources, from Plato to the Bible to court records to novels. We get to write our final paper about a novel. If you could see me right now, I would be happy dancing like a fool.
BUT WAIT, there's more!
We're watching movies. All of them I've either wanted to see or have seen and love.
-Dangerous Beauty
-The Magdelene Sisters
and last, but certainly not least
Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
My.Favorite.Movie.
Greatest class ever, yes?

Dangerous Beauty is one of my favorite movies. Though it deals with high-class prostitution, it also shows the lifestyle of people back then, and how courtesans were highly educated beings...not a bad word against that movie. have fun with that class and keep us posted! if i was to study abroad, i would definitely take that class :)
That sounds legit. Dangerous Beauty is gooood. I did my Small Sword SPT from the play its based on. You will appreciate that movie, I believe.
