Hmm

Feeling quite relaxed now because my Honours Thesis presentation is over, and it didn't go as bad as I thought it would be. I felt quite pleased some told me it was a clear presentation. I only wish there had been more undergraduates present, because I feel that too few people are interested in what I'm interested in, in this part of the world at least. Maybe things like temporal parts just don't grip them. I can kind of understand, because things like Kantian Ethics don't grip me either. I might take a module covering it (in fact I have), I might become vaguely interested, I might start taking up sides in the field, but at the end of the day, I would feel that I've just done an intellectual exercise. I would feel that I have just done something rewarding but not deeply satisfying. Maybe that's what others feel about metaphysics. There's not much to say here, except that that's just the way things are.

Horace Walpole has to be either kidding or mocking us...
