stunt_muppet: (Sam is loved)

Geeking out in front of your teachers: What college is all about.

posted by [personal profile] stunt_muppet at 12:29pm on 08/02/2008 under ,

Muppet: So, I was wondering. You said that we were watching both the Branaugh version of Much Ado About Nothing and the New York Shakepeare Festival version...which version's that?
Muppet's Professor: What do you mean which version?
Muppet: Well, who play the leads?
Muppet's Professor: Oh, it's the version with Sam Waterson and Kathleen Widdoes.
Muppet <voice dangerously approaching a squeak>: YES!
Muppet's Professor: O__O
Muppet <attempting recovery>: ...that was the version I really wanted to see!

Granted, we conversed in such a way afterward that it was apparent I hadn't come across as a freak, but...still. I was doing so well with not humiliating myself this semester.

Please, please, please do not let me frighten her away with my deep-seated, full-frontal nerdity. It's major-decision time, I need an advisor, and I'd rather not scare off any more of the faculty than I absolutely have to.

However, in the privacy (ha!) of the Internet, I feel I can say this with less shame:

Squee! *bounces*

*uses Sam icon in celebration*

Mood:: 'embarrassed' embarrassed
location: hidey-hole

::loves your icon::

Heh, profs here love that sort of nerdity, though. Which member of our illustrious English department are you attempting to corral for your major advisor (this *is* in the Eng. dept., I'm assuming)?

Yep, this would be the English department. I'm still shopping around for an advisor, as it were, but Professor Vaz-Hooper seems to like me, and I'm doing reasonably well in her class, so I figured she'd be a good place to start.

Aha. I've never had her as a professor, but I've heard a bit about her. I believe [livejournal.com profile] kayliemalinza and possibly [livejournal.com profile] jcgenzie_and_co have some insight into Vaz-Hooper.

I've finally checked out the video today, so I'll be sure to tell all about it!
