Philosophy, Grrrr…

Yet another late night when I cannot sleep.

Yet, I think I have a bit more of a positive outlook than last time I bloged.

I have started all of my subjects for uni this semester. It looks like I will have allot of work to do this semester, especially reading. A couple of things I am facing this semester at uni include:

• A subject being taught in half the time of a normal subject as the lecturer will not be in Adelaide for long, But I do get a long break before I do my exam.
• A subject which is philosophy based. We got a big 400 page book in the first week to read in the first 4 weeks of the course. But the style of writing is the big killer. The writing uses heaps of big words, uses heaps of useless words and it does not have a good flow (it is very circular, I think…). In my mind it is just to make the author think they are good.
• My third challenge is a subject which has 70% of its total assessment based on group work with the remanding 30% allocated towards an exam solely due to the fact that my part of uni make exams compulsory.

However 2 of the subject I quite like the object/intention behind the subjects.

Anyhoo, a quick observation. I like boxes!!! Not boxes with pretty pictures on them (the craft kind), but boxes that you get new stuff in. I say this as I have an aversion to throwing away boxes I buy new things in, a most recent case of this is my new TV which I bought over a week ago, However I will chuck this box out over the weekend :-P I think I keep boxes as it allows me to hold on to the feeling of when I first bought the thing that is in a box in question.

Anyhoo, have fun, and thanks for reading this circular, nonsense piece of writing to make myself feel good, hmmm, maybe I should be a philosophiser, Nah, they are much worse…

Cheerio
