I'm taking Intro to Philosophy. It's interesting and kind of fun during class. We have some involved discussions about a lot of stuff. The only problem is the reading. I'm not a big reader, so it's hard enough for me as it is. The kicker is, it's Plato. I have to read Socrates' Apology for tomorrow, and about four pages in I fell asleep for an hour. Not good. Now, I can't get a paragraph without feeling like I'm gonna pass out. Maybe I need to get more sleep...... or maybe, Socrates is just a really boring dude. I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but I think the only reason they put him to death is because his apology was so long and confusing. They probably just wanted to shut him up for a minute and were like "Oh, wait, now he's dead. Oh well!"
