• The most interesting thing I had today was my European Storytelling class
  • Although I was side-eying my professor because she was complaining about how over-the-top and unrealistic it was for Harry to be so abused at the Dursleys
  • And IDK…what a weird thing to rant about in a lecture about fairytales and myths
  • Also we sort of sidetracked into problems with Disney movies
  • Also I’m not entirely sure what to think of my professor so far
  • I brought up Jim Crow and the rest of the crows in Dumbo and she didn’t find it all that offensive??????????????
  • Or some of the lyrics in Aladdin or the fact that everyone who is “good” is fair-skinned with non-Arab features?
  • And I had a lot of problems with the things she was saying about female roles…
  • WE’LL SEE HOW THIS GOES
  • The first 30 minutes of shopping I did (I needed some lined boots and another sweater and maybe pants) were fun and then I remembered how much it sucks to go shopping when you’re wearing a bunch of clothes
  • Also is Zara just cheaper here or is that my imagination?  I don’t think I’ve ever bought anything from there before in the US because usually everything in my price range is ugly/basic/boring.
