School....


So school started about 2 weeks ago and it is already kicking my butt! I am going to school 5 days a week which has proven to be a really tough adjustment for me! I am used to going to school 2 days a week... now that it is 5 days, it is even harder to get myself out the door.


I am really excited about the classes that I am taking! They are all making me realize how much I LOVE philosophy and that is really was a great major for me to choose. I am taking Ancient Greek Philosophy, which i love because it is the basis for a lot of what we believe today, including our system of government (in lu of the pending election). I am also taking Mind language reality, this class is really fun because of my teacher, I love her teaching style and her attitude about the subject. The next class is Justice and International affairs, my professor is from France (I am pretty sure that is the accent that I have become so used to) and he is very versed in his international affairs. He is fun to listen to, even though he goes off on his tangents every once in a while. The last class that I am taking in online. It is bioethics (which is the ethics involved in the health care industry), this class is interesting because my sister is in nursing school and one of my greatest friends is in PA school in Billings, MT. It is teaching me all of the things that they will deal with on a semi-daly basis. These classes are philosophy based and they are all so fun, but are requiring a very large amount of my free-time. I am going to have to go part-time at work if I am going to make it through next semester. It has already been hard enough to get school work done and i am not even working full-time hours right now!


Anyway... I just wanted to give everyone an update on school so that I dont have to repeat myself anymore. :) I am very excited to be at the U of U, I finally feel like I am working towards something, not stuck in the dead end that is SLCC. I hope everyone that is in school is awesome! and for everyone else have a great school-free fall!!!


ps I want to wish good luck to my cousin Mike... GOOD LUCK ON YOUR TEST! i know you will do amazing!!!!
