why didn't i choose this...?

"It may defy common sense, people may laugh at you...

but who cares?

That's what romance is all about."

Isn't it almost comedic that hundreds of pages of philosophy, a semester's worth of work, can all be wrought into two simple, ordinary sentences?

    after all that hard work, you have to indulge in ALL of those. watch a couple hours of anime after working out at home and then you can spend lots of time with your family and friends!

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...

"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...
