Hullo.

Well first of all, my name is Evander Camorlinga, I'm 19, Hispanic, and I was born in Burbank, California. I lived there for up to five years, but then something went terribly wrong. My mother and father decided to get a divorce so of course I had to move with my mom to Tulsa, Oklahoma where I currently live. It's an alright place, I don't hate it like other people do, it's where I grew up, and I learned to like it. I want to double major in Illustration, and Painting. I took Western thought II last semester, and I didn't seem to like it. Maybe I just didn't understand the readings, or maybe it just didn't catch my interest. I don't really know. But of course I'll give everything a chance. Hopefully this semester will go better. I hope to like this class. Maybe I'll learn to like it. I certainly do like the people in it. And it seemed fun on the first day. I also want to be able to understand the readings. Some of these philosophers just don't make any sense to me. Maybe I just don't like to think. Hmm. Well, I hope I do well in the discussions, and class participation seeing as I always do bad on those type of things. I would really like a good grade since I didn't do so well last semester. I know I'll be trying reallllly hard to get a good one. I hope to find that philosophy isn't really that bad, but who knows. We'll see how everything goes. Hopefully it works out, and learn a couple of things.

  1. Evander, I'm glad the first day was less painful than you were anticipating, and I hope the class exceeds your expectations. As I said in class, I think the earlier philosophers are actually easier to understand than many 20th century authors, and through lively class discussion, I'm sure we can figure out what they were trying to say.
