MODERN PHILOSOPHY – (Fr Santos) — Quiz on Decartes.  3 essay questions took the whole hour: How was he successful at determining “self” as the “rock of certainty”?  How did he fail at proving “world” and “God” as “innate”?  How was “world” distinct from “self” and “God”?   — at least those are the questions I thought (through subjective perception and err) I answered.

ANCIENT PHILOSOPHY – (Fr Santos) — continued Plato’s Phaedo to explore personal, social & objective immortality.  Body vs soul.  4 Causes: material, efficient, formal & final.

ARTS & IDEAS – (Fr Vallee) — test on Classic Greek Culture.  Also turned in a 3 page Reflection paper on “Greek Hellenic Idealism vs. Hellenistic Reality.”

SOCCER TOURNAMENT — Soccer has become some big here that we have a 4 team tournament going on.  Today was game 2 of round 1.  It was called the “Battle of the Archangels” because one team is called St Raphael and the other ???  Today’s game was supposed to be last night, but there wasn’t enough light.  — today was too hot (1:30pm) 
  

TABLE SETUP — in preparation for Parent Day tomorrow, we set up the tables in the Refrectory for 300 people!  — wow 

VOCATION LINK UPDATE — Yesterday I had a record 35 hits on my Vocations link page (& 190 for my whole site), so I decided to add more than just Miami links.  Added some links for general vocation info, seminary listings and all the diocese of Florida with their vocation links.  I even found some profiles of some of my brother here.  — it only took me 4 month to add stuff in a half hour … procrastinator
