FREE AT LAST

My semester has ended, and it is that time again, to reflect on what I have learned in the passed 16 weeks. The answer, of course, is nothing. Which is to be expected in this hustle known as the American Education System. Well that is not completely true. I like my career choice, although it was not my first choice, its pretty hands-on and creative. Sadly, my field of study does not completely satisfy my desire to know the unknown. I leave that up to human interaction, and independent studies. And this semester I discovered great musicians like Tokyo Police Club, The Wombats, Just Jack and Matthew good, artist like Eric Bailey and Claudio Ethos, and writers like Christopher Hitchens through what I like to call urban exploring. But my greatest discover was realizes that for two and a half years I was lusting over an ideal that never really existed. Luckily, I have come out of all this much better than how I came in. I guess it can all be summed up with the phrase “live and learn”. But now that school is out and all the kids are back in town for the holidays, its time to put my brain away for a couple of weeks, and make some bad decisions with my peers. I have a good feeling about this winter break. Its time to rage.
