1 down, 3 to go, 6 days left

so, in good news, first exam went like hot pancakes. totally sweet. i completely didn’t answer one question (4 marks out of 60), but i can afford to miss like 16 marks and still get 82% as final mark! i’m feeling good. my hand feels like it totally will die.

distractions: videos: don’t work so hard – totally applies, canon d on guitar – very inspiring music, and the guy looks so into it that its just sweet.

this is a wicked idea. next time i have a chance to paint a wall in my room (or two) with this paint, i’m so doing that. its paint that has metal in it, which makes your walls magnetic. *sweetest* *idea* *ever* (and no lead, totally safe).

cool website for cute semi useful stuff.

lovin’ right now

i present THE WEBSITE OF MY DREAMS: cuteoverload. pictures of cute stuff.

going to eat tonight: garlic mashed potatoes, and very awesome steak.
garlic mashed potatoes:
boil potatoes with some bayleaf and garlic until smooshy. throw away the water, and mush with minced garlic and cream and butter, to texture desired. cream makes them smooooth.

steak:
no clue yet. probably just steak with some spices – its really good meat, should taste awesome. :D

yay for all the fluffy snow outside!

coffee

coffee cup

one day i’ll have a machine that will allow me to make tasty coffee drinks like that.

//back to studying philosophy… in which i will get *80%* if i pull of a 75% on the exam!

update @ 12:01am
that’s it! i can’t do it anymore. the names are starting to mix up in my head. i guess i’ve been studying (with some breaks here and there but mostly studying) since 2pm. wow!
who i have read (book), revised (class notes), reedited (together with overheads) and thus reviewed:
Nagel, Goldman (I, VIII), Kant, Stein (II, V),
who i have done at most 2/3 of the above (and thus not totally reviewed yet):
Singer – done the second half of Kant’s critique, but totally didn’t get first half. e-mailed prof.
Mendus – reviewed but don’t feel confident – keep forgetting what she wrote about (all jokes aside, marriage faithfulness. but she’s arguing AGAINST it)
Hajdin (2) – nothing done except rereading class notes. no lecture notes, so i have to reread the whole thing
Rapaport (I, III, IV) – done all 3 but its all a huge mess in my head and on the paper so still have to totally do

that’s for the short answer part.

for the essay part i have 4 people:
Elliston – “Gay Marriage” (4-5)
Jordan (both arguments) – “Is it Wrong to Discriminate on the Basis of Homosexuality?”
Nussbaum (everything except section II) – “Objectification,” Specific examples from D.H. Lawrence and Playboy, seven ways of treating as an object, discussions of D.H. Lawrence and Playboy.
Primoratz (4-5) – “What’s Wrong with Prostitution?” – first and second feminist critiques

i’ve got a superficial overview of all of them, but for the essay part i need to be cracking these guys off in depth. i’ll probably sketch something out for nussbaum, as her paper is HUGE, one merged gay marriage argument(almost wrote gay prostitution – now THATS a philosophy paper topic), and definitely primoratz as he could appear in both short answer AND essay part.

anyway. time for a break..nnnnow.
