Don't be real, be postmodern......

I think I must have missed the point of last week's class on Structuralism. I thought I understood it at the time, but this week we moved onto Poststructuralism and Deconstructuralism and I realised I didn't have a fucking clue what any of it meant. And all the terminology's in French, which doesn't help. Neither does the tutor. He's not really a tutor, he's a postgrad student interested in an academic career, and we're his guinea-pig class...
Oh well. Next week is Marxism and Feminism. I can DO Marxism and Feminism.
Only four hundred pages of Dickens left to go this week. And a couple of hundred words of Anglo Saxon.
I'd forgotton what a bastard work actually was.
Still. I only have to survive another two days of hard work and then I'm going to go see Matrix Revolutions...

One thing I didn't like in Reloaded was that it didn't as much plot and layers as the first movie did. So hopefully Revolutions will be an improvement on that particular aspect of the movie :) One of my friends just called and her mother has tickets to the preview in Japan, which Keanu Reeves is supposed to be attending. Much to my friend's ire, she had heard of neither Keanu nor the Matrix series.

I think it's sensible to read the book before the movie. One think I don't like about reading the HP books after I saw the first film was that I'll never be able to picture my own versions of Harry, Ron and Hermione. And now it's really strange when I read the fifth book because I still picture the characters looking like kids.
