CHIMPHOBIA

Whew! At last! I finished this one. I actually had this concept just last week, and I was thinking how can I interpret it in photoshop.  Well, this isn’t that special to start with because my work isn’t that great, but then I’m still proud because I put some effort on this one.

We were actually talking in our Pysch 141 class last week about the the contributions of our genetic structure in the changes of our behaviours. And then we ended up discussing about the great resemblance of chimpanzees’ genetic structure to human beings’. The chimpz are humans closest relatives. The percentage of resemblance is 99.9%. And it’s only the gene which made our jaws move that made us different from them.

Well, it’s very embarassing because the chimpz greatly denied the statement above. What a very shocking reaction form our beloved chimpz! They cannot accept the fact that assholes and asswipes like us are claiming them as our closest relatives. Ahehehehe! Just kidding! (Well, we really don’t know for sure. Hahahaha!)

Well, talking about pains in our asses…UP’s CRSIS’s the name baby…hell yeah! The university’s new online enrollment system became a burden instead of a solution to slow enrollment process. Wege, I and Roni have started processing our enrollment last Monday and up to now we are not enrolled yet. What the heck!


Roni texting…after we had our temporary form 5 signed by our adviser…

The server is always down! OMG! Where’s the back-up? And the students have no absolute control over their CRSIS accounts. We cannot confirm our subjects beyond the scheduled dates and because of this we have to approach someone who has the admin log ins for us to check if our subjects have been confirmed. And the worst is we have to line up in the CSO for48 friggin’ years before we can get our official form 5. Talking about hassles!


Wege in deep thoughts, while we’re waiting for our turn at
the College Secretary’s Office…

We should go to school very early this monday, or else we’ll be picking our numb asses in the trash…ahehehe! Anyways, Wege and her mother went home earlier yesterday and that left us (Roni and I)
with nothing else to do. So, we headed up to Ayala land…ahehehe… and hang our sore asses out at pizza hut…ahehehe…


ala mode ice cream…chillaxxx…


Roni babe…

Haist…need to sleep now…

LOL! ITSOAI means In the Sarcophagus of an Immortal, my blogsite in blogger. I just switched here in wordpress first day of this week. I have to do some link exchanges because my blogroll is kinda empty…ahehehe. Anyways, it’s time to keep the ball rolling…

I just spent 8 hours watching Supernatural. Deathgod lent me a dvd for
the first season which is consist of 23 episodes. I watched episodes 1 to 3 three days ago and continue watching episodes 4-17 until today. I had actually seen season 2 last all saints and souls days. I only managed to watch episodes 1 to 14. And the verdict is? Hmmmn…not that bad. I mean it’s the same with any other supernatural series like Charmed, Buffy, and the likes. The differences are the characters and the twists of events in the story. On the other hand, I’m shamelessly smitten by Dean (the older leading character), ahehehe…

This is the second time that I met a teacher who is so passionate, and very devoted to his profession. The first time was when I was in highschool, and it was Mr. Candano, my English teacher. Now, it’s prof. Espiritu, my Philo teacher.

The common ground of these two fellows, is they see to it that every person would feel special every time they’re around. These kind of people are so rare to find and so precious to lose. Anyways, here are photos of my Philo class last semester…

Thats me in stripes(:

That’s me in stripes(:

This afternoon, as I went to Sir Espiritu’s table in the faculty room to let him sign my AdMat form for Philo 171, I was actually surprised he still remembers my fondness of Osho, and he told me to look for Osho’s lecture in YouTube. I hope to meet more people like him…just wishful thinking…(coz i know most people out there are too stiff…)

Teleological Approach To Personality

Posted by admin

This is just a summary…

In a relativist point of view, personality development varies from culture to culture, from place to place. So does the development of a unique Filipino personality. On the other hand, the Teleological Approach is in lieu of universalism. Personality development is greatly correlated with consequentialism (individuals are consquentialists in nature). Consequences motivate individuals to change or alter their attitudes. This is because people in general are goal-oriented. They always expect reciprocation and consequences.

This approach can be used as another spectrum in viewing the Filipino personality as a whole. This is because their consequence-oriented personality can be attributed to the fact that 83% of the them are Roman Catholics. It is noted that religion is a vital influence to people’s lives. And it is the religion that affirms consequentialism (wherein it teaches the people to do good so that they will be blessed in return, doing the other way means hell and the likes). Its influence to the people affects the intensity of consequentialism as a prime motivating factor in personality development. But we have to take into consideration that religion is just a contributing factor. Consequentialism alone is a very important variable in studying personality. Here, we can conclude that the concept of consequentialism is universal.
