Three Beautiful Things: 05/24/11: Middle East Poetry, Tumblr, Flickr

1.  We studied Palestinian, Israeli, and Iraqi poetry in World Lit today, which means seeing this part of the world through metaphor, feeling, music, personal pain, personal longing, and personal experience.  It makes these people we often lump together as fitting some collective description deeply human.  The movies from this part of the world do the same thing.

2.  I had some fun exploring www.tumblr.com and adding pictures to my new photo blog.

3.  I finished another set of papers and am one set of papers away from being caught up.  After reading those papers, I rested from schoolwork and added pictures to my flickr account
