ugh, i've been procrastinating all day..i finally finished reading what i was supposed to and i came up with a fabulous idea that was much better than my first. too bad i haven't written anything yet, because after spending an hour and a half trying to make sure i understood mctaggart's bullshit rambling, (these few sentences that are like pure mindfuck, they're just so unclear...actually,...

Bon apetite.
paper due wednesday, ugh...
so does time exist or doesn't it?
i think it does, but we can't precisely measure it and whatnot. i should just procrastinate and write about how time does not exist, thus my tardiness should be overlooked. fuck mctaggart up his stupid little dead ass. augustine too. bleh.

time is an abstract, and only in theory. time is a theory--and a relative one at that. if time is relative then your paper isn't due for weeks, argue that with your teach.

and humility sets you free from both...
my teacher carries a handkerchief...how odd. i've never really understood those things much; they're pretty icky. i mean, why don't you just carry around a little thing of tissues? it must be a pain in the ass to have to wash your hankie everyday. and ontop of that, you have to keep putting your snot back into your pocket. i guess that'd be kinda similar...

wow, what a day. in sociology, my professor was lecturing about gender stratification. oh my god, some people make me fucking sick. these 3 girls...me and my friends always make fun of them...they remind me of the cliquish girls from middle skool that just thought they were the shit. anyhow, the leader said that men should hold the door for women, and pay for us,...

I won't spout philosophy at you, as I haven't studied it to any deep level (if you want my opinions on the subject, ask).
The act of creation is reward in itself. Anyone can criticize, few can create.
Your friend is doomed until SHE decides to pull herself out ... but you can help her to that decision.
Can you make someone feel an emotion like caring? I don't think so.
Dream of the Ideal, but live in the Practical ... Ideals rarely run you over in an intersection.
Advice: To something you love for a day, whether it's a walk on the beach, sex, video games, or political debate. It won't solve your problems, but it will "center" you a little and make them smaller.

Daaaamn girl! I echo so much of your thoughts now or at times in the past.
About your friend, if you think your not helping her enough or cant think of any more ways to help then maybe you could talk to someone who professionally helps people in these situations and get some ideas, at the least they may help you deal with feeling helpless.
About death see my current journal entry which was inspired by someone elses entry about her imaginings about suicide.
What is art? what is original? I saw a link from someones journal once that went to a web page that was basically a statment of some derivitive art movement and they had a manifesto talking about how ALL art is derivitave and that was their first principle was "Nothing can be orignal" and that people can't own 'ideas' so it was of course an anti-copy right philospy of art. It was thought provoking viewpoint.
People have for all time thought about what makes something good versus evil. Not sure how to help with this one. I suspect that your feelings in your metaphysics class is shared by other students, and same as people who take the class year after year. Just hang in there I am also sure the teacher probably will next teach about some philosphers that tried to answer these same conundrums.
Myself I gave up trying to tell what is evil and what is good but paradoxically I try to live my life as a good person doing the right thing with out being able to define it.

The me of a year ago is part of the me of now only in the mode of having been me. The me of a year from now is part of the me of now in the mode of going to be me.

A "self" is a combination of all of the me's that will exist throughout its life only in a specific mode relative to the others. McTaggart has always reminded me of that concept.
