Seven Samurai and Jane Eyre

Image
I am working on a few projects right now--the search for employment also involves mountains of free time. Having finished Aladdin's Lamp: How Greek Science Came to Europe Through the Islamic World --I took notes and asked and answered questions of what I learned and already knew--I started on The Inheritance of Rome: Illuminating the Dark Ages, 400-1000 , again using the same note-taking process. It's the only way I can process information.  I have also started reading Age of Aztec , having finished the others in the Pan the on .  I began a project involving reading Jane Eyre  and watching the films, I read twitter updates from the futbol world, my dad and I have taken to watching one or two episodes of Star Trek Enterprise  every night for a month now, I play soccer on three teams, volunteer at the local museum, take care of the doggies...Needless to say, Reader, I am making my way quite slowly through my projects.  Tonight I finished watching Seven Samurai   wit
