i love writing. it’s a huge passion of mine.
but, 20 page papers…with deadlines…i don’t know. just not my passion. just not my greatest love. i don’t want to do this. but, alas, i must. so, back to erasmus and then on to john cassian tomorrow. and, yes, both of these dead, old guys are worth reading. john cassian has a lot to say about the practice of the virtues. i’m writing about discretion/discrimination through the virtue of humility. it’s fascinating. and no, it’s not fascinating enough for me to have written the paper yet. but, still fascinating, nonetheless. both of these papers are the kind where i think to myself: dang it, i learned the material. i read the stuff. it’s great. it’s fascinating. just believe me, and i won’t write the paper. so, now, i’m going to finish a paper. i know, i should have the guts to say that to my professors, that they shouldn’t make me write these papers, but i don’t feel like getting laughed at today. thanks for reading my ramblings which are a form of procrastination.
i love writing, but not this.
