week 12

its the end of week 12, and that means it's almost Thanksgiving, there's a couple weeks 'til finals, and lots of cramming to do.

i've tried real hard to keep up with my classes... but i still feel like i'm behind.

so what i'm gonna do is study for Anatomy all Thanksgiving break (stupid muscles), and make big posters of terms and concepts and stuff from my Soc classes and just post them in my room.

what i've learned so far:

Anatomy: the body is a crazy thing. we've gone over the bones, muscles, organs, systems- circulatory, respiratory, central nervous, peripheral nervous, autonomic, and urinary... and there's more ahead. i think i wanna be a doctor FOR REALS.

Theory: capitalism sucks, socialism is the solution. modernity is being aware of why you do the things you do (why you think the things you think).

Orgs and Institutions: gotta be aware of the food you eat. we're reading fast food nation right now, and ch.5 tells you about the artificial flavors that go into food. our professor highlighted the content of fries- go to www.nutritiondata.com/facts-C00001-01c225u.html to see the nutrition facts.

Lifestyles and Consumption: i've been studying the PilOrgs as a nonprofit service and have tied in choice, taste, preference, what is a lifestyle, politics of consumption, and design.

that's been pretty much all i've been studying these past 12 weeks, and there's more in between that just somehow managed to fall through the cracks... but i'm hoping i'll feel more content with what i've learned in a few weeks...
