Uni days.

Argh.... tired.

Thursdays... wake up at 8:40am, get ready and leave the house at 9:30am. Arrive to Uni by 11am, wonder around aimlessly killing time before lecture. Awkwardly try to not look at anybody in the eye who is in my class, but so desperately would like to talk to someone. Maybe someone as quiet and nervous about class as I am. That would make me feel better.

I don't mind too much my Thursdays here. Mondays are a lot nicer, although we do finish late and don't arrive home till about 8pm or so, later if we stop for dinner in the city. Thankfully today I finish at 4:30pm so I manage to -just- get home before it is completely dark. Mike is with me in that class, I feel kind of bad, considering I've actually talked him into doing a Philosophy unit with me. Ethics is very broad though, no pre-reqs. I managed to get a HD in intro to computer networking unit, let's see if he can do as well in one of my units. :)

I've got 2 hours to kill before my tutorial. Might go grab a coffee and read Frege. .. ah... Frege... slowly I am understanding you. I think I might follow Adamo's lead and bring in my own spoon with me. The coffees here are too hot, and so I let them cool for a while, but then it gets too cool. There is no perfect temperature for me, so I think a spoon will somehow help that.... somehow...

Thinking of writing a long philosophical rant in MJ's post on happydragon... there's a lot to mention... but I am usually quite reserved in the Serious Discussion forum, because I fear any criticisms of whatever I say. ;__; I am too reserved to be studying philosophy.

So tired...

New Glasses

I have never read a comic that captured EXACTLY what I felt during a particular moment in my life:




:P Hilarious!

Long time no.. write.

I logged onto the ol' MySpace today with the aim of deleting it, as it is very old and very much unused... but I couldn't. All those nights I spent blogging... and getting to know people. Social networking... at least I don't have to clutter my bookcases with any of it.

I have started another blog that is keeping up with my Honours progress, linked somewhere somehow on my profile I assume... it won't be interesting, but at least it'll let people know I'm still alive when the thesis writing begins.

Today has been my first day alone in a long, long time. Since... since January, I would dare say. It has been nice... I got a lot done today... and now I am sitting here listening to DT, drinking a forbidden yet delicious soft drink and trying to think of what to mention in my first blog in what must be forever.

I think I was a lot happier back in my early years of Uni. My writings definately reflects that. My marks have improved ten-fold, but I'm not enjoying things as I used to. Every day seemed wonderful. But I guess this is just a classic case of looking upon the past with rose-coloured spectacles.

I miss Science... I miss textbooks, and notes, and countless lectures and labs. This journey with Philosophy will not last, as I am eager to get back to the Medical world.... but I am thoroughly excited about this thesis. I'm doing well so far, I hope my motivation and passion will last.

My graduation for Biomed and Phil. is next Semester. Unfortunately my Dad could not make it as he has to undergo heart surgery next month... this was very sad news, and I am very worried... but he is just sad that he could not come over for my graduation and for Joe's 21st. I told him it's fine, and that we will see him soon.

Mike and Frode are both out still, and I think have gone bowling. I am just waiting for my Breaking Bad torrent to finish. In the middle of Season 3 at the moment. Good show.
