I think I miss music history. Honestly, I do. Call me a geek, it's been done before and rightly so, but there is a little void in my life and I think history belongs there. I will be taking at least one class next semester, so that will be nice, nice to run to the library and take out way more books that I'm going to read and nice to poor over details in the hope of finding out something new about my topic. But I hate that word, nice. Everything is nice, everyone is nice. Let's branch out, Emily. Use some more grown-up adjectives, like fulfilling, satisfying, intellectually stimulating. And even those, I feel, are intermediate adjectives. I want some really brilliant ones. Or just avoid using them altogether. An adjectiveless world would be a very stark one, though. See? You can't describe any nouns. Nouns need describing, and I think Plato would agree. We have the form of a horse, but to make it unique, we need to attach specifications to it, color, size, temperment.
What a rant! Maybe all this free thinking is getting to me. It is all for the best, I think. I could use some poeticism in my writing.
