Your homepage: Not angsty; puerile. Especially the conceited "rants".

Thought there was something deeper about angst (not just the general term used to describe teens wallowing in self-pity):
Angst:
German word for the anxiety or anguish produced by an acute awareness of the implications of human freedom. An important notion for existentialist philosophers, including especially Kierkegaard and Heidegger.
anxiety {Ger. Angst} :
According to many existentialist philosophers, the normal emotional response to the overwhelming responsibility entailed by human freedom.

I'm considering teaching in a secondary school, preferably RI, for a few weeks at the start of next yr b4 university starts. Anybody knows who I should contact/what procedure/requirements? I have a rough idea of salary, doing it more for the experience.
