Major Lessons Learned: Philosophy

I can say that Philosophy is one of my favorite subjects.

I got excited when I found out that I will be having a Philosophy class but my excitement went away when I heard feedbacks from other students, mostly negative. Like how boring the class is and how complicated, and so on and so forth. But I regained my excitement back soon enough. Yes, it gets complicated and confusing at times but that's just life. Sometimes, our class meetings really are boring and sleep-worthy but most of the time, I feel so active and I participate so much in class that I learn so much too! The topic, itself, is interesting. Especially to someone who desires to take up law. That someone is obviously me, but I let my chance on getting a pre-law course by studying BS Psychology but I think it could still happen via forensic psychology. Anyway, philosophy is about critical thinking, ethics, fallacies and many more.
I learned that Philosophers are lovers of wisdom. And that Philosophy comes from the greek words philo and sophia. Philo means love and Sophia meaning wisdom.

I really had fun studying Philosophy eventhough sometimes I got so drowsy and sleep in class, I still have time to re-read the slides on the powerpoint our instructor made and posted online in edmodo which gives me the advantage to think and analyze the topic more closely.

Most of the things I learned in Philosophy is in this blog. To check out more of my posts on Philosophy, just click THIS and browse.

Meanwhile, here's a picture of me with Albert Einstein.
