Hi everyone - update on my pathetic life

[Hawkeye-X]

Just checking in while I waste time burning CD's for class..

I'm taking four classes this semester, two computer courses, finance and finally the real reason I'm here - Political Systems and Ideas.

So far, it's been pretty good. I'm learning about Plato (Apology of Socrates), Crito, David Hume, Adam Smith.

Any insights on how I can read ancient stuff? Most of their writings make ABSOLUTELY no sense to me (heh).

1. Pathetic?! BS. I've spent 10 years procrastinating going back to school!

I've got half of an MBA and eventually I'd like to start a totally different program. Maybe Policy Analysis or an MPA...Or perhap Philosophy...

Haven't made up my mind yet.

Good luck with the oldies!

2. Here Here!!!

I'm back in school as well, in my 30s now.
Going for Computer Science BS, but still have a bunch of general to get out of theway.

Good luck to both of you!

BTW, I also read the Apology - in my Philo class. Good stuff!
