Today, for a change, I'm really enjoying the philosophy I'm studying...Noel Carroll writes so clearly and makes even complex points seem so easy to understand, and very interesting too...

Makes a change...though it's funny that tomorrow is my final philosophy exam...ever!

In the continuance of complaints about essays I have to do for college, the current project is an essay on montage.
I cannot possibly write this essay without continuously having the song from Team America: World Police in my head at all times.

"Show a lot of things happening at once
Remind everyone of what’s going on
And with every shot you show a little improvement
To show it all would take too long
That’s called a montage"

At least it's entertaining...I think I must include the lyrics in the essay, cos, in fairness to it, it does explain montage very very well.

I was also extremely tempted to, instead of actually doing the essay, just make a montage of myself doing the essay and hand that in instead. I'm really not sure how well that'd go down with the philosophy department in UCC. One thing's for sure though, it would be a LOT more fun than writing an actual essay...
