Week 3

Well on top of being rather later this week (technically last week), I don’t have much to say. I must admit, this section was a bit too oblique for me, and it was only with the help of my fellow experimenters that I understood some parts. And even then knowing what I was supposed to be looking out for, and following Ben’s advise reading the last 4 pages, I stil hardly noticed it e.g. the wank scene. I also misunderstood, thinking he had visited an uncle. Again thanks to fellow experimenters for putting me straight on that. I suppose the thing I find most frustrating is the number of words I don’t understand (perhaps Israel has it a bit worse and i shouldn’t complain.) and the number cultural / historical references I know nothing about. I feel like I should be sitting with a dictionary and Encyclopedia Britanica or something. But I have to say after reading Israel’s post, I’m going to approach how to read this in from different angle and try not get bogged down in what I don’t understand. Rather enjoy what I do, and try to just flow along in what I don’t. So thanks to my fellow experimenters once again. Sorry for not adding much this week and for only really talking about myself I just realised. Oh well, I’m sure I’ve broken another rule now :-(

    I don’t want to feel like i’m in grade school again (although I never was and don’t konw what ‘grade school’ means). So I’m not going to worry about the words I don’t know.
