i hope i am theologian...at least a little bit

Speaking of theology. I'm in the midst of writing my very last paper of the semester: a 12-15 page paper for Systematic Theology. I'm trying really hard to get it done tonight because tomorrow I have an exam and Friday I fly to Regina. Time is short. The thing I find frustrating with a theology paper more than any other is that I never feel as though I've said everything that needs to be said or qualified every statement that needs to be qualified. I'm writing about the idea of a suffering God (hence the appropriateness of my theologian quiz results) and there is so much to say - I could write a dissertation. I know I'm not going to say everything that should be said, particularly because I'm running short on time. Maybe that's the real problem. I'm kicking myself for leaving this paper so late that I won't have time to do a bang up job as I'd like to. Frustrating. But at least I'm leaving town right after handing it in. That way I can literally leave it behind me and not think about it until January, when I'll have more chances to write substandard essays on really interesting topics. On that note, I think it's time to eat some food to energize myself for at least a few more hours of essay writing.
