#reading identity

So I read my paper on identity and cloning in Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go and one of only two English Undergraduate conferences in Canada. I was nervous as fuck, heart palpitating, hands shaking, mouth dry as all hell. But it went pretty well. I didn't trip over my words too badly, swear, or make a total ass out of myself. So that's good. Plus my beau, my sister, my dad and his gf all showed up to support me :) My entourage and I took up a whole row!  At any rate it was a good experience, especially considering I had no idea what to expect, and would definitely do something like it again.
