College is Weird
Just found two papers on my Google docs from classes I took in 2009.
First one, titled SadfaceConsciousness:
Following the master/slave stages, the independent self-consciousness no longer sees itself as an abstract Ego. It is an object in itself, and in thinking it is free. This freedom has been called Stoicism, which Hegel says is the next stage through which the self-consciousness will proceed. The consciousness takes a negative attitude toward the master/slave relationship, the master rejecting truth through the slave, and the slave not finding truth through his master or in service.
*removes spectacles and rips off fake moustache* This may as well be in Latin, I have no idea what I was talking about, and I'm sure I had no idea then. Also this class had too many hipsters slouching in worn-down seats, and my professor was a small, anxious-looking man who rode his bike everywhere and sweated profusely.
I remember enjoying my African history class much more:
CULTURE
Men shave beards, women shave heads
King wears necklaces, bracelets, and a cap wrapped in a turban
When king dies, he is placed inside a mound surrounded by his earthly goods and men who served him
Make sacrifices to the dead
What more do I need to know. Actually, this professor was very passionate and spent a lot of time doing what he preached so the class was much more interesting :).
Just when I think I am done with tests and college, I join the Guard and am now loaded with more to study. Only now it is 200% more numbers and AFI-384U8397492374297243874's I'm not going to remember/care about. Gonna run off and live the Bohemian life, this military stuff is for the birds.
