Life is like a box of grenades...wait, no, that's not right...yellow bellied monsters...maybe that's closer. Life is all about change, you cannot live if you do not change. Unfortunately, sometimes it is change unwelcomed. In order to make them sound more dulled or whatever, we call those unwelcomed changes "transitions". Needless to say, we all have our fair share of transitions in life, I've just begun to have mine, in the beginning of my adulthood.
Now, there of course are two ways of handling transitions: to run away, and be caught up in it later, or to face it head on, and perhaps be more productive in my life. I believe I'll choose the former, thank you very much.
That's why, instead of "saying" I'll do this, that, and whatnot, I am "going to do", this, that, and the other. A new year brings hope for many people, but as for me, it's just another date on the calendar, but, this year is going to be a good one, so, I'll just outline it for you all (even though you don't care).
2007:
I turn 18: I will be able to vote, fight for my country, smoke, watch explicit material, and do whatever I probably want. Bear in mind I will never smoke, I abstain from explicit material as best I can, and I am attempting to become a federal employee anyway.
I graduate: This is really a silly deal. My sister and brother barely cared about their graduation, but it's nice to go to I guess. It's either this or college, and I still haven't decided which I want people to go to (and it depends on what college I go to:P) Some people seem to think that it's an important occasion...frankly, I hardly associate with the people in my class both because I was only there for a year and then I began joint-enrollment.
I become a fed: We'll just leave that one on the need-to-know.
I go to college fo' real: Well, I already know how college works, so this is just a matter of what my specific major will be. MIT: Ha, Don't even get me started. OK State: Very good school, kind of wary of their research and what it would offer me. GA Tech: Freakin sweet, no explanation. GA Southern: GATech Program, tech student after 2 yrs. It's not a bad deal (close to the ocean too, now that'd be different). OU...ehhhhh?....we'll see.
This brings me to a point. "Transitions" often aren't pretty, they're often ugly. One transition in my life will leave lasting scars...I don't like scars. You know, I've never had a headache really (unless when you counted when I was in second or third grade and would say I'm "sick" when I had no idea what I was talking about--don't be shocked, yes I was normal once and didn't wish to go to school). Back to the headache bit...haha, well, get ready for a big headache. Supercomputers would never be able to make this decision correctly:
Which university should I go to?
A. Away from home (OK) or Close to Home (Anywhere else)
B. (If so favored) Go to MIT or Anywhere else
*Now mix those two together to make one huge whopping disaster*
So many variables...grr, I think I know where I'm going...shh, don't tell anyone.
^Ok, just ignore this whole post, it is disarrayed, incoherent, and plain weird^
Let's see what happens in '07. (oh and I love James Bond, but I will "never" graduate in the year "007".)
later kids
