Must.Return.To.Relaxing.
It's the second week of my Theoretical Perspective and Issues in International Studies class....atleast I THINK that's the subject title....I just call it IS-201 because the title is sooooooo long. There's only two students: me and Hannah. She's from South Korea, and has been here for one year already. It's so weird with only two students. You definitely can't get away with anything at all! Like the other day, I was late, so of course it was very obvious. And there's always a 50% chance that I'd be called on to recite! Hahaha! Nah! Class mostly consists of Sir Radj talking to us. And all our quizzes and test are take home so that works to my advantage.
Today's class was more like a religion class than anything else. We were discussing St. Augustine's Salvation Theory and how it is man's goal to return to the golden age, which is paradise. Return because according to St. Augustine, the time of Adam & Eve and The Garden of Eden was the golden age. And man fell from the golden age because of the temptation of Eve. And then from there we ended up discussing the cruxifiction, the da vinci code, and the recent specials on national geographic channel. Also since Sir Radj's specialty is history he knows alot of not publicly known facts. It's very interesting to just listen to him. Too bad he has already chosen to retire from teaching, and will only be gracing the halls of MC as an environment student.
Alright enough of academics!
I was talking to a friend today. And she was stressing as to how to spend the rest of her days now that she has finally graduated from college. You know how since you were a kid in school, you always knew what was coming next? You enter elementary, then high school, and you finish off with college. But what comes after college? The.Rest.Of.Your.Life. That's a long time, and it's so hard to choose what kind of job to get because you could end up doing that for the rest of your life.Eek! Scary! What if you choose wrong? And you end up being miserable?! Worse! What if you can't find a job and you have no choice but to live with your parents?! Penniless and miserable! You end up a loser and alone! (said-she-the-single-bum-living-under-her-parents-roof) Okay. I should stop now, because I'm stressing.
Another thing I learned today. I'm the ONLY SINGLE person in our little group of friends.And now my skin is breaking out from all the stress.
