I do love philosophy, I just don't know if I love academia. I know I want to concentrate in Ancient Philosophy, but I don't have any clue about what I would do for a thesis.
I graduated in December, I was planning on getting into to Grad school starting in January '05 or August '05. My problem is, I haven't taken a philosophy class in a few years because I loaded up on them early and filled my major out when I was still a junior. Then I took some time off before finishing up undergrad. Unfortunately, this means that some of my teachers have moved on to other schools and I doubt the ones that are still there would remember me well enough to write a letter of recommendation for one. So, I don't know if I will even have any letters of recommendation and I need three of them. I am hoping maybe I can slip in on probationary status or something, I can't imagine I am the only one who faces a problem like this.
