To have a conversation with me would be like this....
School is ending fast and we are on our last week of regular classes. Next week are Finals and stress are building high, anxieties are building, and i can just feel the whole WORLD moving. Well, not literally.
Anyway, not only do i have my life(family) and academics to worry about, I am also in the process of applying to a private college and applying into their program. Sometimes, i feel like I'm the only one struggling, and i have it the hardest but when i think about it, i know that there are many more students out there in this world, who has it worst than me. sigh, this relieves me a bit but still, this is mine. My challenge and or hardship.

Its funny how we build up all these skills and knowledge, and pay thousands of dollars to continue at these institute, only to find out that we have set up the rest of our life to be working zombies with a HUGE debt to pay. The thought of trying to fit into society, and catch a glimpse of the American dream and or at least live 1/100th of the American dream is what motivates every cells in our body to strive and thrive. I mean oh sure, there is an easy way out in this world. Quitting is always EASIER than trying. Why not?!
Random Thoughts #3
Let us give up, and live like our ancestors did, like savages, hunters and gatherers. Only, in today's society, we'd all be visiting the homeless shelter or live in subsidized housing, work jobs that pays minimum wages, and survive with the aid of governmental supplement. OK, I understand that there are people out there who really cannot help their selves, and need the help of the government and then, i know that there are those who wants to sit on their butts even though they're very capable, and lives off the system. That kind of lifestyle isn't what i have planned or have in mind.
Random Thoughts #4
You and I both know that if we quit now, we'll regret it someday. I believe that it is our future that motivates us to keep going. Err-- well at least mine does for me. Coming into this world at an disadvantage, i have to work harder. Being the first generation in my family to be American born, and go to college, can be very challenging. Well all my siblings are in college, has graduated from college, or are in the process of finishing college. I mean, I'm very proud of my older siblings, and of the rules and advocation that my parents has set and given us children, in their house-when we still live there. I'm happy to see and know that my parents value education. Its ok if i don't become a millionaire, and or own or work the BIG and HIGH position in the corporate world. I don't think I would want all the responsibility anyways. Id much rather be working somewhere where I know that I don't have to work a crappy job or as hard and yet get pay pretty well. I'm fine with making $80k to $100k annually. I just want to be able to provide for my family, and have some change left over for--anything.
To end it:
Anywho, i think we have gotten off subject far enough, and i did promise to blog once or twice a week, so here it is. Sorry if this isn't what a blog should be like... Adios!
My dad always said, "Time is money" and "A bag of knowledge is worth more than a bag of money" in other words, "Knowledge is power"....
