Seriously, I am a Scholar

If the former posts describing my adventures in dealing with a foreign country's higher education system and reading scholarly works in another language/badly translated English do not completely convince the reader that I am being at least half-academic here, let me share that I have just completed a book list/working bibliography. 
AND I used the Chicago style of citation. For real. It took me forever. (These assurances are mainly directed at my thesis advisors whom I routinely disappointed with my half-fast attempts at citations and bibliographies. meep.) 
And in conclusion, let me say that whoever invented the Chicago style of citation was probably related to the guy that made the check-out slips at the Babes-Bolyai Uni. Who models himself after the most inefficient, tedious, commie-rific institutions of pre-1989 Romanian government.

Shalom. I just read your comment about the farm dream. I can understand that. Don't give up.
Meanwhile I am thrilled to discover a blog like yours. I'm off the read it more now.
Good luck!
