It's been forever but I'm back yet again to share my ideas with the people that happen to stumble upon my blog.

Life has been very interesting.  Lots has happened...too much to put here...but one of the most intriguing aspects for me is my gen ed class Intro to Ethics.  Man.  I eat this shit up.  So many different ways of thinking about the same thing.  They are so drastically different from one and other and they all make logical sense byhemselves.  It's only when you compare them to each other and to the life that we understand that they become flawed.  I'm not going to pretend I understand all of it...because I don't.  I wish I had more time to sit down analyze and comprehend but because of school and music and friends it makes it really hard to put in that extra time.  I feel like it is through ethics that I will find myself because it is the kind of thought that I feel is closely related to who I am.  Analyzing what other people define as the most important such as reason, or a greater being, or good and what is good, or common sense...I find it so liberating.  Sometimes there are people that have a viewpoint that I disagree with...the ideas of plato, hume, kant, etc help me explain the reasons why I do not agree with their viewpoint.  The real reason this is important is to get the people that hound me (IE usually people of christianity) off my back and allow me to figure out firstly who I am and secondly what I believe.  Don't get me wrong I like philosophical and even religious arguements but I don't like people who try to rope me in on the basis that Christianity is the only way to salvation...Sorry.  This is kind of built up from several negative experiences.  I don't like condescending people.  Believe it or not I am a smart person.  If you would like to have an intelligent discussion or arguement that is fine but if  you are going to talk down to me...I will only get a little of the information being conveyed because my mind will be consumed with anger and pity.

Anyways.  That was kind of a weird rant.

I'm seeing this girl.  I like her she is cute...and it is starting perfect.  SLOW.  I'm getting to know her and we are in an imbetween phase...good things are happening and it really makes me appreciate the little things A LOT more.

I have started dressing nice.  Usually a button up shirt with jeans sometimes black shoes sometimes tennis shoes.  It makes me feel a lot better about myself and people have noticed.  I get a lot of compliments.  I started combing my hair to the side.  I don't do it all the time but it's kind of fun.
