Tutoring

Nothing much mappening lately.  i auditioned for a job at The Princeton Review on Tuesday.  If i get the job, i’ll be teaching an SAT/ACT prep course two nights a week.  It seemed to go pretty well.  i think i’ll call them tomorrow about the auditions.
Other than that, i’m running through everything at school.  Hegel’s gonna be interesting.  i think i’m gonna like his ideas about the Absolute.  Linguistics is still pretty fun.  Nothing really heavy.  i like being able to read some of the work Chomsky is trained in for a change (As opposed to his political views…which i generally like).  My other class, Shakespeare, reminds me more of my High School English 4 class when we read Shakespeare…except less rigorous.  i haven’t been to my Physics lab yet, but that’s going to be a breeze…  i still need to get started on my independent study in German…i’m translating part of one of Heidegger’s untranslated works (Besinnung).  It’ll be interesting to say the least…and most likely my most difficult task this semester.
Oh yeah…and Dune was a good read.  Definitely recommended for anyone liking good Sci-Fi epics…although i suspect it has some basis in the atmosphere of the Middle East (although Frank Herbert wrote it in the 70s).

  • As Amarok 2 gets closer to a release, it is looking better and better. There's a new feature in the works that will give Pandora a good fight: music biases. - #
  • Today, two great things (according to me, at least) have been released: Firefox 3 and Wine 1.0. Nearly everybody should know what Firefox is, however many probably don't know about Wine. It is an Open Source project that works as an abstraction layer so Linux (and other POSIX) users can run Windows programs (such as Photoshop) on Linux without needing to have Windows installed. - #
  • After a long wait, it is official.  I've been accepted to the University of Glasgow's doctoral program in theology.  The term starts in late September, so I'll be moving some time between now and then. - #
  • I found a few problems with my reading lists regarding dates. I've fixed them all so that it is relatively accurate. - #
