Tell Sarah she can keep writing my paper while I'm gone. Come back to this - night completely made.
"Next I will talk about the “carpe diem,” which, although similar to “sense-datum,” is much more quotable. For instance, you can change it to say carpe cakem: seize the cake, carpe teaum: “seize the tea,” etc. Although this may not seem directly connected to philosophy but rather connected to dinner, this is simply not the case. Cake and tea are exceedingly important when considering philosophy in general because without these things, we would just be sad, angry little people with no joy. Cake and tea point us to the ultimate truths of God in their deliciousness and simple beauty and as such may be considered the crux of all good philosophy. They allow for the viewpoint of the philosopher to be balanced and healthy, if a little tubby. But a bit of extra tub around the middle never hurt anyone.
Another good tid-bit of philosophy: never count your chickens before they hatch, because one may actually be a chicken."

I love all my friends here at the Vines, and while I can't wait to be home, I will miss them all so very very much!! <3
