So... I have about 1400 words down for the chapter...
I am finding it difficult to write... I think it is because I am too harsh a critic with every sentence I try to structure. Nothing seems right.
Usually foolish ramblings during early AM hours produce some sort of usable content... but here it just seems like I am a child scribbling about a topic that is too great for her to handle.
Who knew writing a philosophy thesis could be so hard...
But... as much as I have my doubts, I just cannot see myself not finishing this. I will not let my supervisor be disappointed in me... it just feels like something that would never happen. So.... the means to my end in 6 months will happen... somehow.
It's easier to work in cooler weather. The heat waves of Summer are awful.. I am considering spending the future hot days in the Seville Grove library, but it is a shame it is not open in the evenings.
Regarding my thesis chapter, I am finding it difficult connecting the ideas of Schopenhauer and Nietzsche together. Perhaps there is just a big picture I am missing when I read the Birth of Tragedy. Then again... it is a complex read that any sort of interpretation is bound to be questioned.
