College Life... In A Nutshell!

Mabuhay!


Welcome Weekend 2013

Yes, you might be wondering.. "O my gosh, he's updated something after exactly 5 months and 12 days!" Yes, indeed I have! I have a very good reason also. As you know, I am a full time student at the University of Saint Francis in Fort Wayne, IN! I LOVE college, let me just say that. As a commuter, I travel at about two hours each day roundtrip. So the two hours of my day consist of me driving. When I get home, it's a couple of hours that consist of supper, family time, rosary, and most of all: homework. So, with everything that's going on, I do not have time to blog. However, I have not forgotten about my readers! Don't worry, I will try to fill you guys in on the last 5.25 months that has happened to me. But first: let me explain to you my college life!

                                   

As you all know, I am majoring in Philosophy and Theology with a minor in Catholic Studies and history. Why Philosophy you might ask? Well, let's see.. I need to have a good background in philosophy in preparation for seminary school. I was originally planning to go for only Theology and perhaps English too, but after finding out that I could major in Philosophy and Theology at the same time, I said to myself, oh heck why not? I have found philosophy to be a challenging subject- not going to lie. However, the staff: Dr. Lewis Pearson (who also happens to be my adviser), Dr. Vincent Wargo and Dr. Earl Kumfer at the University of Saint Francis is AMAZING! They will help you through it all.. which I appreciate a lot. In Philosophy (if you are not aware) there are TONS of reading. Depending on the course that you take some might be harder than the other depends on how much reading you will have to do. Luckily, I got used to the habit of reading- now it's a favorite hobby of mine!

Theology on the other hand, was the original major I was intending on graduating with. Theology is the study of a particular religion, and for me happens to be Catholic Theology. I LOVE learning about the history of the church, the Bible, current events that are currently happening in the Church and everything else! Dr. Adam DeVille, Dr. John Bequette, Sister Jacinta Krecek, OSF, Sister Felicity Dorsett, OSF, and Dr. Lance Richey are all phenomenal and excellent professors who tells you the way it is no exception! I look forward to growing spiritually and in depth with my own discernment and understanding of the faith with these excellent professors.

Well, that's pretty much how my college is in a nutshell. As I said, i'm enjoying every day of it (except for the drive of course) but other than that, I LOVE it! Hard to believe that in 32 days I will be done with my first year! Crazy to think about but it's the truth!

Go Cougars!

Have a good day! :D
