I've made a new enemy.

It's funny how that can happen when you haven't even spoken to a person.

But in 2nd period Film Lit, when everyone shared their favorite movies, some guy who had gone to Switzerland over the summer--and whose name I have conveniently blocked out--said that Marie-Antoinette was his favorite film. 

So, opinions: is he willfully counterrevolutionary or does he just have bad taste?

...Or both. *shudders*

In other first day of school news, I didn't get Creative Writing, hence why I'm stuck in Film Lit in the first place, but my other classes shouldn't be too terrible. (I hope!)

...On a completely unrelated note, I'm going to see Massenet's Manon next month, and am quite happy about that.....And I got a new series on the Revolution--conveniently called La Révolution--by Robert Margerit. Reports on the accuracy and general goodness will be forthcoming. As will much art, as soon as I can hook up my scanner.

I promise it won't be as long until my next post as it was between this one and the last...I was just having internet issues before.

OMG! THE ROYALISTS HAVE GIVEN YOU CONSUMPTION, HAVEN'T THEY?!11 *panics and flails and runs in circles hysterically*

Calm, remain calm. The royalists have not given me consumption. If they had they would pay. No, I'm merely making use of artful coughing to make a point.

...;)

...Oh. That's not as dramatic. .___.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

True, but then again there are few things I would like less to die of than consumption.

[josiana.livejournal.com]

Well, it would be awkward and painful. And somewhat pointless.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

Precisely my point.
