You don't know me...

Actually, you probably do.

I'm not sure what's gong to happen here but I'm just going to write.

Woah.

So, I like philosophy. I like thinking deep thoughts and articulating said thoughts. I like writing papers for philosophy classes. I plan on taking a buhjillion philosophy classes throughout my life and continue to think deep thoughts and articulate them. I know that there are many in my two philosophy classes this semester who don't like them. Well, boo on you. I like that when I'm finished taking the two of them I have a bit of a headache. That means I'm actually working my brain. I haven't had a headache from that much learning and thought in years. I love it!

I also really enjoy learning about different religions. I like knowing how people believe all over the world. I feel like by learning about all of this apparent weirdness gives me a better understanding of what I believe and why I believe it so I can better defend it. Everytime I learn about some one else's beliefs I learn a little more about my own and that just further solidifies them.

I also really like getting letters in the mail. I forgot how awesome a feeling that was until recently when a good friend of mine joined the Army and the only way I can talk to him is via snail mail or those rare times when he can use his mobile phone (so sorry about 10/3 Trav!). I get rather giddy and smiley when I get letters in the mail and not just the ones from him. A friend of mine who goes to college far away writes letters to me and I to her. Also, a friend who lives far, far away tries to send me letters but the United States Post Office loses them. Anyway, letters make me feel more important than emails do. Emails are instant gratification which I like but it's not the same. Letters take time and a little bit of money which shows that person is thinking of you and cares enough to sit down write a letter and mail it.

Anyway, that's what is on my brain for now. I'm going to finish This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen and continue to kick myself for not getting into this author earlier.
