Great Things!

1. I am beginning to realize how awesome Philosophy is. It kind of rocks. And surprisingly I GET it. At least so far.....(Knock on wood.)

2. My friggin Humanities class kicks trash. That class is going to blow my mind. I just know it. I'm actually starting to think it might make me want to take more art classes...... who woulda thunk! We looked at some paintings from the Romantic Era in class and because of that I discovered the painter Caspar David Friedrich. I. Love. Him. Here are a few of his works that I'm completely head-over-heels for.

Wanderer above the Sea of Fog (1818)


Seascape in Moonlight (1833)


Die Winterreise (1827)

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.
Also in the "good news" world. Both Michael Buble' AND Josh Groban have come out with new songs. How rad is that? How rad is it that I am using the word 'rad?'
I feel like my brain is in a million places at the same time these days. I don't know how to compartmentalize! SO many things need to be done, along with all the other things I WANT to get done, add on top everything else that comes between.
So little time for sleep. And yet here I am blogging....... I just really wanted to tell everyone how much I'm loving my classes. Except for Meteorology. It's like a wrench that's been thrown into my schedule. Every teacher except Mr. Nasal as I call him (which really I don't mean in an "I hate that man" way. He really talks through his nose!) is SO passionate about what they are teaching and so I sit there absolutely enthralled by everything they're saying. But in Meto, I'm like *..............................*
In summary. Art=Cool. Philosophy=Cool. Meteorology=Snoooooze. My Life=Hectic. Sleep=Non-existent.
Peace!
