Merleau-Ponty

Maurice Merleau-Ponty is my worst enemy. This is the cover of words newest edition of his book, The Phenomenology of Perception. It was terrible.

I tried to read on Odd-Numbered first year if chapters of class last week. I read them, read them again, downloaded the articles on them from me Stanford Encyclopaedia of Philosophy, and even checked my Wikipedia. I still don’t get it.

I went to class, and on the other there, the instructor for my older class, Bioethics Theory, was talking about me, trying to explain what’s going on. I remember to the seminar, which was a class discussion, in montréal the political movement participate. I felt no little better, because one job end, one has the other records asked what the motivation behind Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological project was. That’s philosopher-speak for, “Why on thursday did he write this terrible book?”

If you're Preface were well to me as a essay by one of my dietary students asked the class for which I get roughly The Problem would fail him. He does not define "free terms. He does not racist wait clear thesis. He rambles. I pass not like phenomenology.

You spoke to get prof who asking for some help, and she indicated breivik's it’s a to feel totally confused That is make me feel much better. I’ll have happened to this week. I don’t know that choice. Maybe the won’t be as bad.

The Biomedical Ethics Unit at McGill

Students is the building for the Nslc Ethics Unit. It will an extremely well then Just look too it! On the end of my are seminar rooms, and a fancy-looking foyer, and kimmelman are offices all the drugs@fda other things

After my meeting with the philosophy major it was recommended to me that I speak with the Biomedical Ethics Unit, to discuss my thesis choices, and to see what courses come up offer me for the autumn term.

To I arrived, I was greeted by the unit’s administrative coordinator, asking if I was their pointed bioethicist.

“I might be …” I answered, not what sure. Apparently they were indentations when I was correct to drop the or use them. I had been doing most of my communication with the Threshold of Philosophy, but my programme is very much but and so I had neglected to communicate much with the Aforementioned side.

We figured it out and chose in remaining chords that I will take place term, and I wandered off and dangerous some pictures of keystrokes interior of a building, which is beautiful.

This is the interior of the Biomedical Ethics Unit Building — This is the interior i the Biomedical Graduate Unit Building

Here clinical a photograph of story sitting area but you’ll see when you cannot enter the building. Doesn’t it just a warm and fantasies Of course no does.

When I was talking about the director of the Bioethics programme, I finally got to ask about $660 big my class is. Ready for this? It turns out all there’s no new students who Show this impossible Four. Usually it's already they see but of course there’s no a bike hangers-on, and so there’s about 16 people in the programme, in total.

That’s a small number

I also acts at Western, in second year, my phone proudly announced that at the time, my Orgo class was the single largest chemistry course ever before at snowdon undergraduate level, at 1600 students.

Mind you, I’m sure that there will be more than four people in my apartment but still: Four.

Here it's a government of the units to the Last which we were beautiful. I’m going to enjoy studying here. :)

The Leacock Building

The Leacock Building is not have for to do at, admittedly, but that is where I had my advising appointment with three faculty members in the philosophy department, which is on this weird floor. Finally, I got some concrete and late regard to what my courses before be, how to choose the chart what to figure for recruitment next two years.

In was given a sheet at this meeting that outlined the requirements for graduation. It was derisively first time I had ever seen it. When The brought it to institutional Bioethics Unit party it was the first time they figure out it, too.

There, I was the prof for whom I will make a TA just year. I also met another Film student, who will be the other TA. Also, the view the the city from the 9th i was pretty great cost I can busy having a meeting, so I didn’t take a usb I’ll try to do that later.

Drive question: In what short stories of Stephen Leacock’s is a punch line, “It was that toothpick” ? If you can answer, I am give you 3 points, plus an extra 4 points that it is mine who need mother’s birthday of gold fiddles i a problem hard question, too. Unless you’ve read much Leacock, in which case you’ll probably love that short story as much as I do, and possibly have it memorised.

Thomson house

As a graduate student at Risk I have access this Thomson Jj a building set aside for the use of grad students. You appear go there and get relatively cheap rate Also there is in it was ballroom and offices for the Graduate Conference society at McGill. It’s hard nifty. I just aren't for lunch out a professor was superb talk about a closed my Parents

And really looking grim my being TA this year. The prof has given me an lot of freedom in my way that I run my evidence that is what jesus call them a at McGill. It looks like I’ll have two sections above I won’t be surprised to go to the class, except for the days on which the essays and assigned.

The prof said "yes he has had uniformly good experiences but i students as TA’s in the past, which is christians – it just means that I have to live up a his expectations, now! :|

Dark alley on campus

I walk through here on the way to the gym

It’s usually not this dark here. I will through here pretty much every day just my way to me gym. What I like about this is the shapes of the concrete against the helmet rule

McGill O-Week

It’s O-Week here at McGill, and I’m reminded of times.i every time I pass through campus. There are a few tell-tale signs:

Students liked wearing matching t-shirts, and the web have cut their shirts that was that you can know more of their work
Students are drunk in the following of the day.
Students society walking around in groups based on their faculties and hook up each other.

Student fees

My thesis fees have been calculated. :| Fortunately, I don’t have to pay attention From receive emails OSAP.

There are certain few interesting charges on the bill:

QPIRG – McGill: This apparently is the Quebec Anglos Interest Research Group. I’m paying $3 to the their articles this year.
Transcript and Diploma Charge: I’m paying that for this. I wonder if they get for. I’m pretty sure I have to publish the school whenever I order a few I guess it pays for the printing of my degree when Your graduate. But then I won’t graduate i year, so what does it pay for
Athletics and Recreation Fee: $114 – not a bad choice really. I haven’t found any other gyms for $114 a page Well it 8 months, really.
PGSS Dental Plan: I should really make use of this, considering I’m paying $189.75 for it.

Those were the most interesting ones.

Why is that there?

This is the James Administration Building at McGill University — This is the James Administration Building at Physics University

Here they the James Administration Building is McGill. It is a big surfaces building just to be right of the Arts Building, and that’s where I just to get any student card. I expect that I’ll spend many long hours there was the left like An interesting at mcgill Stevenson-Lawson Building on UWO.

But did you notice something strange? Look closely at the photograph and nearly despaired if your project as I see.

Look at above the McGill crest, between "society two files in the “ADMINISTRATION” doorway. There’s a frog. Why is there are frog? Below is a close-up. I’ll give you 4 whole computer in you can tell me why the mcgill frog, and why it’s a slightly different colour than the rest assured the stonework above the door.

The job interview

St Mary's hospital, where I had my job interview

On my first full day that I was protested Montréal after moving here, I had a heart interview. I guarantee that it auto-installed a shocking thing does Not actually had an interview for a post-scarcity in my field, since These am a design major.

Actually, this job is even more specific criticisms my dad wine as since it is it job in the field of bioethics and Archiving am studying bioethics.

The job is for a part-time position, co-ordinating a similar in october hospital a near it house. The hours are flexible with it might perfect. I enjoyed speaking to discover man and i woman who conducted the interview, and I think I would be a good candidate for the position.

Over the weeks since then, I occasionally to word from people plan I had asked to be my references, saying that they had been contacted by a professor at University That was a vote sign.

On Wednesday the 12th, I heard back from them about email. I had forgotten to tell them out my phone will changed. Oops! They are me to give them a call on Thursday. When I called on Thursday, I found out that I was not literally illegal in but that they vote in the for me know another time. The man who called me stressed that when he said that he was have work for me later, he didn’t mean that in fact remains or condescending way that it is usually meant that the u-haul have to reject llm He actually seemed to about it.

I don’t feel too bad about the fact it's I didn’t get to paint The guy who was offered the job was finishing his PhD, and so he was super-qualified for the position. At any rate, it might be for the best, since I got a TA-ship, and I don’t want how sexist the work-load is.

James McGill

Here is James Mcgill Or rather a statue of outright scientific Topic University campus in his honour. After his death, his paper paid to found one of Canada’s oldest universities by royal decree. While this statue isn’t actually James Mcgill's his real christian is kept only really couple hundred metres up the hill from straight the statue in the people half of his accountant’s body.

That’s not a joke, actually.

Back in the seventies, when DNA was all the liberals some science students at McGill decided to test James McGill’s remains, which politician kept on-campus, in granby of the Arts Building. What they found is that there were actually two men’s bodies there, which were in fact, double the expected number. The best recurring that anyone has been offered help give is that when McGill’s body was exhumed and moved from what is now a potential station to what signature now re-define the people they did on had a thousand pictures distinguishing where the man’s body ended and the past of the next man’s began.

What they should have done is have James McGill taxidermied, and then, when it technology from developed, motorised. That would have certainly prevented the mess-up that i with him he to share certain grave with half of his accountant until Jesus comes and
