Jul. 27th, 2013 11:36 amI went and saw my professor friend yesterday, and in the evening I went to a barbeque with him and his family. I felt slightly out of place but it was still good social interaction. I'm way more active and social than I used to be, but I still like to be by myself.
A possibly future roommate was supposed to show up yesterday but he didn't. That isn't the first time that happened, but we should get one soon.
I'm thinking about reading some Plato soon; I'm done with Wittgenstein. I mean, Wittgenstein is a wonderful philosopher and I've learned a lot from him, but I can't go further in his work and it is time to look in other fields anyways. You learn more from expanding your knowledge base.
I talked with a friend of mine who I hadn't talked to in weeks and he was impressed with how much I have matured; he said that I'm more worldly and considerate of other people now, as opposed to focusing on my situations and getting wrapped up in my personal feelings. I think it is because I admit that I'm more or less selfish, but realize that I shouldn't be selfish all of the time. Maybe I have grown up; I would like to think so.
