Insanity...or genius?


This is me

This is my desk after 5 days of class

Conclusion: I'm going to die

But yeah... I may have to drop my class on Seeing Different(ly). The name really says it all too, i was really hoping to see more clearly (muddy). I think I'll just sit in on the class and watch all the awesome movies.

And if anyone's ever read Stanley Cavell...well, we need to talk. i.e. you need to help me.

Other than that, I've already started phase 1 of "falling off the face of the Earth." No extra-cirriculars (except japanese tutoring, which is really just more school). No friends (except my japanese homies), and no life (except for this blog...haha...*cries*). I have not really thought much of what phase 2 entails. I imagine it will have everything that phase 1 had, except for maybe more evil ducks. They will rule the world after the polar ice caps melt.

them, and maybe penguins. Naturally, a great war will come about, the ducks will be vanquished, and peace will be restored to the land. Hopefully I'll be out of law school by then.

Hmm.... I'm considering applying for the Honors Thesis program. It's a year long (2 semester) program for seniors. It's basically just another class in one's schedule, except you meet with your faculty advisor (of whom you choose), read a lot, and write a lot. Requirements: 3.7 major gpa, 3.5 career gpa and all pre-requisites finished. Surprisingly, I'm elligible. (I just have to *stay* elligible at this point). However, this would mean foregoing Japan. I won't know about my Japan app for a while, but the more I bury myself in the work of two highly esteemed professors, the more I'd like to attempt an honors thesis with either of them. (And, i'd be done with my major, giving me the time to devote to such a feat). If I don't get into the Japanese Program (40-50% chance) I will definitely apply for the Honors. Other than that, I'm trying to adjust to 6 hour class days, and the 3 hours of reading that follows class. Thank god I have monday and...

why can't I be complacent?

"Skepticism about our knowledge of others is typically accompanied by complaceny about our knowledge of ourselves." - Stanley Cavell My latest little aphorism from my gem of a book: The Claim of Reason . However, my problem now is that I'm devoting too much time to this class to keep up with my analysis of 19th century America. Don't get me wrong, I love this stuff. Culture/Politics/Rhetoric...all the things that make people awesome or terrible. But again, when I find myself gerimandering the hours of my days into a very unbalanced map composed of "reading...reading....reading....reading...reading. eat. reading....reading...", I do at times think to myself: life is too short My point: I want (need) to drop Rhetoric of the Guilded Age. The only sad part I can think of...I will still probably attend many of the lectures. Given all these turns of events, I've been uselessly planning my future: Summer : take one rhetoric class (Only one!) to make up fo...
