A change of plans!

General
So, I was supposed to have a care-free, completely chill summer: nothing to do but draw and commit to other artsy-fartsy stuff. Yea, it didn't happen.
There was always something not-necessarily unpleasant to do (and there still is!), and on top of that there were some problems with the scholarly programme I'm trying to get enrolled into. However, after bothering certain people at the dean's office and annoying them with identical questions over and over again (hey, nobody ever gave me a clear answer), the dean finally confirmed these "problems" to be complete bullshit, so I still have a chance to get in (which is awesome news, because I've already kinda gave up).
The hard part is, I still have to come up with a topic for a MA thesis (something related to culture and literature). I'm currently studying the most essential types of literary criticism and theory, but the initial topic of my future thesis is still a huge trololo to me. I mean, I do have some ideas, but they don't seem good enough to have the entire paper centered around them. I will have to come up with something NAO, since the entrance-interviews-oral exams thingies are starting next week. Despite all that, I'm planning to do my best tee hee. Which probably isn't that much, because other people are too smart (TOO SMART, I SAY) and I'm just a tatiana living in a big big world. All joking aside- many people want to get in as well and the competition is rather big, so I don't expect to make it (I was never a fan of getting your hopes up). I will just see how it goes.
If I fail at this school, I have one other option but it requires moving out to this big, far-away city for another 2 years, which is largely BLEH. What can you do.
I will have my bottom right wisdom tooth removed surgically soon, too. I'm not scared as I was the first time, but I have to admit that I don't look forward to this either. Boo.
Anyone else have problems with FA's note priority system? It doesn't seem to work for me.

- Dystopian litterature in the media: comparing books and movies.
That's honestly all I can think of as potential master's thesiseseses, haha. At least that I can help with. cx
I actually feel inspired now, but I'd need more time to develop a topic like that, oh man. I was thinking of presenting something related to the feminist and gender movements (in literature, of course), simply because it's such a broad and easy-ish topic to talk about. The portrayal of female characters in Stephen King's novels and such blah blah Stephen King fuuu
As for which litterary theory applies to the first hypothesis, aren't you free to decide that yourself? o:
I am glad you are inspired, though. 8D
