Tuesday

I've found that although Tuesdays are my busiest days, I don't ever do anything productive. I'm in class from 9:30 to 12:30, then have an hour and a half break, class from 2-3, then a forum at 3:30 to 4:30, time off then Baylor Democrats from 7-8 and Bearobics Hip Hop at 8:15 to 9:15.

So, between 9:30 in the morning and 9:30 at night I have about 4 hours of "free time." Now, with this free time, I can easily get a good start on my homework for the night, instead of waiting until all my "commitments" have been attended. But what do I find myself doing? Nothing. Well, today I got something notarized, but that was just in the time between me finishing my test, and the time the actual class would have been over. And I bought a shirt. Online.

Why do I do things like this? Maybe because I just don't care? I care. But not enough to start early. I know I can get things done later, and so I enjoy my time now. But if I were to work now, I could enjoy myself later. Decisions, decisions.

In other news, I'm all set for TV on the Radio!! They're coming into Austin next Thursday and I will leave Baylor as soon as class gets out, drive down to Kaitlin's place, and crash there til the concert. When the concert is over, I will make my way back to her place, and I'll probably stay there until about 7. She has graciously allowed me to stay there and now I'm super excited about this concert!

Oh, and ASA is horribly unorganized. ASA being Asian Students Association. It took us two whole hours to complete a video that is going to be at most, 50 seconds. It was a lot of fun though.

Oh! I've gained a bit of new respect for Dante the Poet. He, like Plato before him, writes with an esoteric sense. This means he writes certain ideas for the masses, but for the intelligensia, he has a deeper hidden meaning. Apparently, this is for the philosopher's own protection and also to keep society from going completely ape-spastic. According to my Great Texts professor, the bigot, Dante's hidden idea might be that he's not a Christian and that Christian ideals are not the true way to life, but instead the life of reason is to be preferred. Makes me want to really read the Divine Comedy closely to see what else I have missed. Oh, and I also didn't miss that my GTX professor was big-upping himself for being able to read into Dante's hidden meaning. He considers himself a part of the few, obviously.
