Facing hazard

24 was good tonight. It becomes interesting how many new characters they'll introduce for that particular season, and kill them off sometimes two, sometimes half an episode after they've been introduced. There have been plenty of awesome firefights and Jack Bauer is still TV's video-game action hero. And he'll be starring in a videogame this fall, allegedely.

Plotted my next semester; will see what upper-level Philosophy and English classes are like here, to see if I'll try for a double-major or whether I'll be a little lazier. Also decided to put off needing to commit to a foreign language for another year--if things go my way, I'll figure a way to learn Icelandic instead of anything NIU currently offers.

And I failed to finish my Philosophy paper this afternoon, instead opting to finish the normal-homework due tomorrow and get more studying done for the midterm I'll be taking after class. While studying, I even decided to ditch the work I've yet done on the paper! instead opting to pursue a different topic that I think I'll be able to write easier, and more passionately about: instead of faith being reasonable, I'll consider why the question of evil doesn't destroy the argument of God's existance.

So I'll have some more work ahead of me than I kind of thought... it seems to be going that way a lot this year. But I've been preparing myself to face hazard head-on this weekend: if I botch this week grade-wise, I'll just focus harder to make up for it later on. Will you swallow the water or the wave? or something like that...

There's still comfort in thinking juveniley... in writing like a highschool kid. Kind of.

But that dream I transcribed this morning was really something.
