Agenda

2. Test

3. Introduction to Personal Philosophy Statement and Art Piece

• Ashley's Example
• Another example: Watsky's spoken word poem: "Tiny Glowing Screens, Part 2":  This poem tells a depressing story about how the stars make us feel inadequate, about how — amongst seven billion people — each one of us is insignificant. However, upon closer look, Watsky seems to be trying to make meaning or find his purpose in the face of that feeling of inadequacy/insignificance. Think about how he defines meaning/purpose in this poem.
