Jul. 2nd, 2003 09:12 pmI am planning to write a proposal for an Arisia panel, about oppression and endangered languages. I already know about France's language policy against minority languages (Breton comes to mind), the Holocaust's effect on Yiddish and to some extent Ladino (immigration to Israel, United States and France more affected Ladino) and perhaps discuss tribal languages and ethnic warfare in Africa. I will need to do more research and why endangered languages are important when most people can be understood using one or two
UN languages.
The third day of my period is always the hardest. Not only am I on
edge, focusing on things that make me nervous, but I am crampy too. Perhaps I feel better when I go to bed.
Oh look, sunny day with good breeze. I checked in with my Mass Rehab person, finished a story and wrote a song. I still have to do my resume for her, which is why I called for an appointment. Motivation,really.
I am not as squeezed for cash as I thought, or at least I can handle things until my next pay day.
