So we're almost there

Tomorrow our country will decide who will become our next president. I have read many news articles stating that countries all over the world are keeping their eyes on what is going on with our election. It simply goes to show how much of an impact this election is going to have not only on our country but the rest of the world. The lives of billions of people are going to be affected by who ends up taking office. Our world is in desperate need of someone that is going to have the rationale to make decisions that are going to start helping people.

I have to admit I am nervous, I don't think I can tolerate the Republicans taking control of the white house again. The lack of logic in their decision making and political agendas haven't helped our country for the last eight years and they certainly will not help us for the next eight. I'm tired of it, I'm tired of thinking about it, tired of arguing with people about what is what should be pretty simple: the idea of making decisions on what is clearly right and wrong. I think it was wrong for the Bush administration to think that the people of this country are simply objects to be taken advantage of. Bush and his administration failed and failed over and over when we needed good decision making the most.

I am excited about somebody taking office that can win the hearts of the people again and make the world see how great our country is and how great a lot of the people who live here are. We are all "real americans". Fuck Bush. Fuck all the elitist assholes that flushed our way of life down the shitter to make a lot of money. I'm not going to hold my breath but I think our world is going to change, hopefully for the better.

Artificially Intelligent

Looking back at things a previous version of yourself has written can say a lot about how a person develops. I have gone back and read some of my earlier posts on this blog and I am surprised at how much further I have moved forward in my life as a person. I feel that I can articulate myself much more efficiently and don't rely so much on cliche modes of speech or resorting to using obscenities to punctuate how I feel towards certain things. I have either deleted or reverted a lot of my posts back to drafts because at this point I can't read much of them and not cringe. I have done a lot of things with my life over the last fifteen years since I started this blog. I mainly meant to create it as a mental scrapbook, something I could look back on and maybe be a little proud of. I felt pretty much the exact opposite. I really came off as negative and focusing on things that while being important, I had little or no control over. I have come to realize that the world I live in can ...

I made it

So I finished college, again. I went through almost everything that I thought I would and then some. It's been a few months and I really felt like I needed a break from everything for a while and now things are starting to settle down enough to the point that I can get back to spending a little time here and there updating this blog. I started this a long time ago just because I felt like putting my words down somewhere I could go back and look at it and feel like I can see the progress I've made. At the time when I started writing on this blog I was working at a job I hated and really felt like I was selling myself really short and I needed to get my engineering degree in order to see my full potential. That was almost ten years ago. Like everyone else, I ask myself, where did the time go? I wanted to go to school to become an aerospace engineer in order to make some part of me and the family that is still alive see me as someone that could compare to my grandfather. I k...

final preparations

I have had the flu the last few weeks so I have been mainly working from home. I have some big things going on with my senior project in the next week so things will be pretty busy. In spite of this I have had a lot of time to sort through my thoughts and start getting ready to move out of where I'm living and have everything in place for when I'm done with my degree. As I've stated already, I'm really glad this is happening and it will bring a long, crazy chapter of my life to a close. I guess the one thing that surprises me the most is how I had to make such huge sacrifices and force myself to commit to something that I didn't even really think I could do. Now that it is almost over I look back and feel that sometimes it really wasn't that bad. Could I do it over again? I'm not really sure. If I knew what I know now, I probably could have done it a lot quicker and easier but there was no way for me to really know what I was in for. I didn't know I wo...
