is it still considered caniballism if all they're eating is ash and bone?

we watched a video about it wednesday in sociology. amazonian tribe (no, not the mythological women, people who live near the amazon river) who cremates their dead then mixes the bones and ash into a banana soup and eats it.

school is going pretty ok so far. i have tuesdays and thursdays completely off, and monday is a holiday so three-day weekend! yay! mondays are my longest days. i have short story at 10, speech at 11, sociology at noon, and fundamentals of poetry from 1 till 3:30. last time he let us out an hour early, though, thank god. wednesdays and fridays are easier. they're the same as mondays minus the poetry class. and no, i'm not taking this poetry class completely of my own free will. it's required for my degree.

i've been doing alot more uploading on my website lately. the galleries are slowly becoming more and more complete. yay!

i'm enjoying the presence of my tv and gamecube so far, but i feel i really should look into getting cable. unfortunately the cable hookup is behind my bed and the tv is across the room, so i'm mildly concerned that i may trip over the cord (if i get it that is) in the middle of the night and bang my head on my chair. ow....

crazy weather for january, huh? there was a what, fifty-something degree high this week?

jessie has taken joe's place in the downloading and distributing (well, distributing to me and her anyway) of subbed anime as of last sunday. so far she's downloaded DNAngel episodes 1-6, and we were laughing at their use of the word "keen." sound familiar, joe? golly, mister, that's keen! she's planning on downloading azumanga diaoh too, which is supposed to be really funny.

we gave speeches on wednesday on what we do in our leisure time. great thing about this speech class is that we don't have to write out complete speeches and read them word for word. we write outlines and talk. it's so awesome. anywho, we also had to bring visual aids for our speech. i brought artemis fowl, my computer mouse, and jessie's cordless gamecube controller. my conclusion was that these leisure activities show that i'm not really an out-doorsy person and prefer to stay inside and work on my pale complexion. the class found this amuzing. of course, my skin is nothing compared to yours, master penny. i wonder which of us actually stays inside more, though?
