so i've become a little obsessed with the blog. i spent half my time picking out these new colors today, and therefore have not finished the 6 page paper that's due on thursday. it's all kate's fault, though. she got me started on this whole blogging concept!

so this paper i have to write is about justice (it's for philosophy). there's a lot of discussion in Plato's Republic about justice... the guys (Socrates, Glaucon, Thrasymachus, and Adiemantus) intend to define justice, and decide whether justice or injustice is more profitable. one of them thinks that injustice is more profitable, which instantly made me upset. then i thought about it though, it really is true in a worldly sense. of course, we have laws (that are sometimes enforced) to curb stealing, and murdering, but who's gonna stop someone from saying something unkind to someone else? Adiemantus says that justice is hard and injustice is easy, therefore injustice is more profitable. perhaps injustice is more appealing and has more benefits here on earth than justice does. however, i believe that justice has more rewards after death than injustice does. well, those are just some of my thoughts... do they make any sense... think i should use them in my paper?

now is the part where i go upstairs and talk to my favorite... mark. g'night all!
