What I have learned

I have had a lot of assignments and classes in between my posts so the amount that I have learned is astronomical. For one, I learned that the way we control muscles is difficult to learn. Not like "O wow this is hard yikes" I mean like "I think I'm just gonna say its done by magic and hope for the best". Just mind numbing difficult. I never thought I would miss the days of learning about the eye. I would much rather diagram light. However the stress of not knowing is done and I feel so relived about that. In organic chemistry we learned about the re-activity of carbonyl compounds. Unless you are a organic chemistry professor we most likely know the same amount about carbonyl compounds. I know they do reactions and that tends to be the limit of my knowledge. In sociology we are learning about being more sustainable, which is a specialty of the instructors adding to the interest of the material. I know he teaches a class called sustainability so I know the depth of his knowledge in this area is great. However the biggest thing that hits home is his belief in the subject. He actually wants the world to become more sustainable. And that passion drives the subject and inspires me to be more sustainable myself. knowing what I want to do later in life it is interesting to me how I can actually be a change with this. I want to own my own medical center, and it makes me wonder, what if we could be fully sustainable? That would be amazing. Yes we may not have the soaring profits that make us rich beyond our wildest dreams, however good practice makes good health. All the food served could be organic while patients are staying. We can offer services to those who are down on there luck or insurance, and increase the overall quality of life in the US.

  1. Ryan, your comments on your current classes have only further proven my earlier belief that science is not for me! The classes sound difficult, so I sympathize with you, but just think how much more knowledge you have than the rest of the world upon completing these classes. I found your comments on the sustainability class interesting, and you are not the first person I have heard say good things about this class. My current roommate took the class last semester and just raved about the professor and his enthusiasm. Your proposed medical clinic sounds interesting and very forward thinking. I wish you all the luck in making this a reality!
