I leave xanga for 5 months and stuff happened to it!

And so, after a few months apart from xanga, I have NO IDEA what the heck to update!  O.o

Weblogs?  Photos?  Audio?  Videos?!  PANCAKES?!

Why is there so much stuff in Xanga now?!

Anyways, I've been xangaless for too long.  And at the very least, I should update you all on my philosophical endeavors + plans after graduation.

For one, I will be graduating from UCSC by this summer (granted, if I pass all my classes by summer quarter, I will be an offical UCSC alumni).  As for future plans, I'll be applying for seminary the following year - Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary and San Francisco Theological Seminary.  That's right!  I'm going to go for a pastoral career (that's the plan).  Granted, I don't know whether or not this plan will work out, but regardless, there's no harm in trying.

And I have received NEW philosophical enlightenment since my enrollment in UCSC.

a) I have come to a consensus that language, in itself, is (1) a logical inconsistency and (2) a semantic fallacy. 
b) The notion of faith cannot be proven nor disproven.

I'll talk more about it later, but for now - LUNCH TIME!

I may resurrect my Xanga once more!  Toodles.  :)

Hah! My Xanga is not dead!

    Hello  everyone!  *gasp* *shock*

John is actually updating his long lost xanga.  Truth be told, writing daily journal entries are tedious and boring, but I felt like updating a few things here and there.  Who knows, there may be people who are anxious to find out if I'm still alive.

For all of you who don't know, I'm a philosophy major minoring in education at UCSC.  I lived in the same dormitory now for three years (call me a freak, but I love dorm life).  And I'm anticipating graduation this upcoming spring!

So perharps you may want to know my future/current plans.

Current Works:
- Writing a children's fictional novel about an eldest child named Leo (who was undervalued by his family).  I have yet to develop a plot.  But it's coming around.
- Currently enrolled in Ed 180 (Intro. to Teaching):  I'm in Westlake Elementary School observing the classroom setting and curriculums.  The children are lovely and the teachers are wonderful.
- Other courses: Philosophy of Mind and Ancient Greek Philosophy - Can you trust your senses?  Upon what, ideal, virtue do you stand upon?

As of now, I'm writing my topical essay for my education class and studying for a midterm.  This is, seemingly, my typical life.

Future Plans:
    I have yet to figure out where to go after I graduate, but I, seemingly, know what I'm doing.  I plan on attending seminary or get my teacher's credential.  There is a possibility that I may be doing long term missions, but I have yet to plan on what is going to happen.

I'm running out of time and energy, so I'm going to have to cut my log here.  Sorry if my entries are mundane and boring, but I'm not willing to spend hours on end developing my sentences.  Anyways, toodles.

Oh wow!  It has been such a long time since I updated my xanga.  Lots ot update!

1)  I was able to pass all my classes during winter quarter

2)  I'm going to get out of school soon - two more weeks!  XD  Hope that I do well during finals

3)  I started getting into Guilty Gear XX: Slash - Midnight Carnival.  Became a Guilty Gear fanatic!

4)  I can start to play the Naruto game very effectively!

5)  I leveling up my Maple Story character - lvl 51!

6)  It is currently 6 am in the morning and I pulled an all nighter.

7)  I love my hallmates - met a few World of Warcraft fanatics.  Probably want to play Ragnorak with them some day.

8)  Philosophy classes have been rather dull lately.

9)  Metaphysics = blarg

10)  Logic = blarg

11)  Settlers = Yay!

12)  Readings = Plethora

13)  Busy for the upcoming week with papers and finals!

14)  Haven't been attending Kairos and Bible Study recently.  Not that it's a bad thing (it's actually nice staying in the dorms).  Relaxing.

15)  Really blessed year with lots of friends.  Have to thank Him for that gift.

16)  Played a little guitar.

Well, I would add more, but I'm not patient enough to make any random rant.  A quick update on my current status should be suitable enough (considering I haven't updated for 3 months).  Bye bye!

Hi Everybody!  It has been a long time since I polished my xanga entry, now I guess you're just dying to hear what's going on in my life!

Unfortunately, I realized I don't have the patience to apply a full-lengthed xanga entry right now.  I never have patience, but when I do, I pour my soul out!  Today is one of those mushy blahish days.  Blahish as in my brain is tired.  However, it's a good tired.  God blessed me to listen, yet, takes loads of work.

As of now, I'll depart temporarily.  I'll be back asap.  Laters
