Magnificat
My soul glorifies the Lordand my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour,for He has been mindfulof the humble state of His servant.From now on all generations will call me blessed,for the Mighty One has done great things for me--Holy is His name.
... an often cynical but not yet pessimistic English graduate student and wannabe novelist interested in many things, both serious and silly. Religion, politics, literature, philosophy, movies, television and even games--I think about them all.
