I wanted to become

I wanted to be a part of

the philosophy department

because I took a course in my very first semester.

It was, global ethics.

And I absolutely fell in love

with all of the theories

but more so than the theories.

Just like talking through

that thought process

I thought was just something
that, like, really, really spoke to me.

and a lot of the things that I learned
in subsequent

philosophy courses, I've really tried
to, like, put into my life as well.

it's almost romantic to me.

Like, this is what I thought
college would be like.
