Oops sentimental.
As much as I complain about it, I adore my major.
Take today for example. In one of my archaeology classes, we watched a video from the eighties discussing Famous Miraculous Magical Golden Finds of Treasure. You can’t talk about treasure without talking about Mycenae, which is my favourite site on earth.
So of course the host goes to Mycenae and they’re walking around the site (did...
I just had a three hour class discussing masonry.
Masonry.
As in, mudbricks and how to cut them.
Three hours.
The life of an archaeology student: so fucking glamourous.

thehollandroad asked: So, I had the religious experience this week of trying my first ever Pumpkin Spice Latte (I KNOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME) and after almost face-planting getting off the escalator because the first sip was so beautiful I quickly came to the conclusion that our future Cul-de-Sac of Awesome will be conveniently placed right in front of a pumpkin patch and our...

I'm loving this semester.
The thing about being an upper year student is that classes are so much more specialized. Instead of general survey courses, I get to focus my studies a bit more (I swear to god, if I take one more History of Ancient Greece class, I will scream: I could probably recite the history of Greece at this point).
Also, I have labs which involve classifying real pottery from a recently dug site in...

Maybe if more people know about them beforehand, we won’t all have to put up with a week of listening to everyone complain about them when they’re implemented.

Niela: I've decided we're going to meet the loves of our lives in Toronto the night before the Mumford and Sons concert and they'll be going to the concert too and they will each go to our respective schools rendering dating not only plausible but definite.
Me: W H Y
Niela: Also they're attractive and layer knitwear with plaid.

Zombies in Ireland!
Okay, not actually, but archaeologists did dig up two male skeletons from about 700AD, who were buried with some huge-ass rocks in their mouths. This practice was medieval Europe’s way of preventing vampires, but since vampires weren’t a big deal in the eighth century, archaeologists think that this method was used to stop these guys from coming back as zombies.
Archaeology, ladies...

When I get sick, I am the whiniest person alive.
I just called my poor father for the sole purpose of complaining about this stupid, stupid cold.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is yet another item in the long list of Reasons I Need A Manservant.
“Heinrich, come here and listen to me complain.”
“Heinrich, go the pharmacy and buy me all the drugs.”
“Heinrich, tea.”
Thank you for all the lovely comments, guys. You make my heart feel squishy. Let’s all drink tea and apple cider together and talk about lions and books. I feel like this would be fun and THIS IS WHY WE NEED A MEETUP.

UNPOPULAR OPINION ALARM.
The more I think about, the more unimpressed I am with Doctor Who lately.
I really wasn’t a fan of Let’s Kill Hitler at all. It just felt like the episode was trying so hard to shock me and I just didn’t care
Night Terrors was good, but it was a filler
The Girl Who Waited was good. The Doctor forcing Rory to chose is the first and so far only time that I’ve felt genuine...
