16) Reading
17) Writing papers (when they’re finished they make me happy…they’re a pain while I’m writing though)

I’m working towards my Masters in Philosophy and have put about 1.5 semesters in to it so far. Here’s what I have left:

Take 4 more philosophy classes, plus logic (and I think I’m gonna try to squeeze more Greek in there too)
Write my Qualifying Paper
Oral Exam consisting of a defense of five separate theses

I’m working on the initial research for my qualifying paper, which will also be one of my five theses (gotta love department-approved double dipping). My topic is still somewhat nebulous, but I know that it will involve Immanuel Kant’s Transcendental Aesthetic. Right now I’m looking at working William James’ Will to Believe essay in there somehow.

I’ll add more entries as I progress.

It seems like everyone wants to get out of debt these days, but the economy isn’t making it easy. I have two credit cards, one with about $2k and one with a little over $5.5k. It’s ambitious, but I’d like to get both of my credit cards paid off within a year.

Total Debt: $7375.46
