I have way too many dreams. Some are some what unrealistic and I am afraid of failure. I have an idea for a book, but I don't bother to write it because I don't want to fail. I am afraid of failure and alot of the times it has held me back. I still don't know what career I want to pursue because frankly the economy is awful and it is hard to judge what career will make it through.
I have a poem about time. I think it's snaptastic. That's my saying. have many, and that's what makes me me. Here it is:
Stop hiding behind your masquerade
Unravel the torn pieces you glued together
You can't
I can't
Time can
Time
A fundamental
So hard to explain
So easy to trust definition
Time: simple, complex, waste
You know that point in the interview where the person asks you about your one greatest strength and your one greatest weakness?
I am a nontraditional college student. I own my own house, I work a full time job, and I am a part time college student. Most of the people I know think I am completely insane to be taking on so much. The way I figure it is if I don’t do it now, when will I?
It's not as easy as one would hope.
For, if easiness rained upon your painted castle of dreams previously desired, instantly gained, the value would be lost.
Therefore, there will be a gap between desires and actualities. The fact of life is you must accept it. You must accept that you may not always receive as you desire.
I love how inconsequential my daily decisions are. The thought of waking up and knowing that even if I make a mistake, everything is going to be alright, well, that's a nice thought.
Not that I'm a pessimist, by any means, because I think people really can make a difference in the lives of others. Can one person change the world? They can for sure.

Before I came to college I would always hear about how much more time you have in college than in high school. I would like to contradict that statement.
If you have more time in college, it may be because you have fewer classes and do no extra curricular activities including working.
Was the Great Depression really only about 75 years ago? Then how come this short amount of time seems so long ago? Today's students might not even realize the lasting effects of this time period and what has emerged because of it.
