PHL 100
I'm at the state library as I type this. Been here a while. I've been working on my PHL 100 academic opinion paper. My topic is, the proper role for women in the Islam society. I don't know how I feel about Philosophy. I've mixed feelings while I've learned a lot I've also begged to differ with even more. Thank goodness the class ends on Saturday. I honestly just want to get in and out of the final and presentation. I'm so glad I have no class in October. Shux. I'm sick of school. I cannot wait to graduate. I can't wait to taste what it feels like to take the last class of Undergrad walala...I'll lose it.
My stomach seriously hurts like right now and what have I eaten besides a bowl of cereal this morning and like 3 energy whole bars here at the library? ugh it irks me I live for the day I'll eat something and it not hurt or have to rush to the restroom because diarrhea calls lols this is a nursing blog so live with it
I miss la familia so much...so much it hurts...things have changed so much this year and am thrown and a bit lost but each day I find more of me. And if this is what it took to tell who was real and who wasn't then am as sure as hell glad it happened. I'm on my feet and running and surviving. Go, me!! More power to me. Yay!!
Can you tell I ain't got much to write...I've writer's block lol anyway life is good. God has been awesomely and brilliantly wonderful to me as He always is and for that I love Him more and am striving to live for Him even more with all of me. Today during QT I read that I cannot live in the flesh and expect everything to work out. I gotta live in the spirit. I'll strive. I cannot be doubleminded/lukewarm. I gotta be hot or cold for JC. And me? me am all about THE HEAT so hot is the goal.
I'm super broke right now...but? payday is coming up so yeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh

PHL 100
Socrates? Plato? Aristotle? am more platon-ish. You've no clue what am talking about do you? Okie the two names refer to ancient Greek Philosophers. Aristotle is more geocentric, observational and scientific (he points down). On the other hand, Plato is more intellectual, more spiritual (he points up). Plato believes we're born w/an innate nature to tell wrong and right however Aristotle believes we are taught or learn wrong and right.
Ah the thrill of Philosophy huh? what does Philosophy mean? it's the love of knowledge. It's the study to question everything.
Epistemology? study of knowledge
Metaphysics? study of that which is beyond the physical
Philosophy? the radical, critical...and it goes on and on
I sit in class and wonder of what impact this class will have in my nursing career, until my Instructor reads my mind and says if I think then that makes me a philosopher, wow! I see how it could impact my career in nursing, the whole ethics issues e.g. abortion and euthanasia. It's mind boggling that much I can tell thus far in to the class.
How could this post be deemed complete w/o me ranting about the pains of an onsite class? an onsite class is to put it mildly a royal pain in the behind. Staying in class until 10pm is so tiring and getting home late then having to work the next day just makes it worse. It just adds to my already full plate and am not allowed to complain and so am not. I've five more onsite classes to go so I best get used to it.
On a lighter note my vacay is coming up in exactly 10 days today. I'm super excited!!! Changing gears, I'm required to do 6-8pgs Academic Opinion paper in this class. My topic is the Philosophy of Religion, I'm discussing my opinion of the role of women in comparison and contrast to that of Al-Gharzali and Fatma Mernissi (from the Islamic view). Let's see how I do.
