At Least It's Done...

I've been trying to figure out what kind of classes I want to take next year, and have become rather stressed with the idea that eventually I might have to know where exactly I'm heading with this whole education idea. Sometimes the whole idea of a career frustrates me; some of the greatest thinkers and doers in history were authors, engineers, inventors, statesman, economists, etc. all at once. Tack up the loss of such genius as a casualty of modernity's frantic obsession with productivity and production. Anyway, as I am trying to decide what courses I take next year, I've been thinking a lot about what I am going to actually "do" with my life. Law school seems like a viable option, so maybe I will do that.

When I was home this weekend for Easter break I went over to visit my friends at Augustana College (the one in Sioux Falls); it was a lot of fun but pretty weird to spend some time in their dorms... weird how similar it was to ours, but how it had its own flavor, too. One thing that I really appreciate at Luther has been the sort of open atmosphere we have, at least in Ylvi. Next year I'll be living in Dieseth I think, and I have no idea what thats gonna be like. It has the reputation being rather "dirty," but I think the social atmosphere will definitely not be lacking.

So we've only got five weeks left, and then I'll be back for summer. It feels like the year has just flown by, and I'm already almost one fourth (or one-third, depending on how fast I go) done with my whole undergraduate experience- what have I done? I look back on the year and kind of wonder what I've done that I will remember in a year. This whole blog post has been so scattered and disjointed- I have to apologize for that. There's a contingent of guys in my room watching T.V., talking, and being very loud. I suppose that's something I could note- its pretty much impossible to do anything coherent when you have six guys in your room talking and socializing. Tip: go somewhere else if you need to do something academic.

Well, off to bed. Take it easy,
