After Christmas in Australia, I'm moving to Wales
I got the course catalog from the University of Cardiff the other day. Classes I could take if I were there:
-"Anglo-Saxon Poetry: An Introduction"
-"An Introduction to life in Anglo-Saxon England"
-"Family and Kinship in Anglo-Saxon England, 750-1066"
-"Owain Glyn Dwr, 1359-1416" (he attempted to establish an independent Welsh state in a revolt lasting from 1400-1410)
-"Nations and their Pasts: Building Identities in the British Isles c.1750-1900"
-"Exploring Middle-earth: Myth, Language, and Ideology in J.R.R. Tolkien's Fiction"
-"'Hopelessly Devoted to You': The Passion of Musical Theatre"
-"Welsh for Beginners"
I want to take those!

ooohhhh!!!! take the musical theater one!!!!
you could write your paper on underwear songs!
So do it!
I would very much like to get credit for learning more about musical theater. Yay for musical theater! ;)
Underwear songs??
many musicals have a song in which the main female character pours out her heart. for some reason, it seems that in most of these scenes, she's not properly dressed - bloomers, petticoats, pajamas, etc.
that would be a fun paper to write. :) sadly, it's not an on-line class. :( but it sounds even better than my rock and roll history class (and that class rocked)! [oops - no pun intended]
i suppose that many anglo-saxon classes at once is a bit much, now that i look at it. perhaps i'll just take the poetry and introduction classes, to see if i like them. then i can take the family and owain [who i suppose isn't technically anglo-saxon, but anyway] ones later if i want.
