the trap i set for you seems to have caught my leg instead.
it's such a let down when you can't get the one thing you really want out of life. all my life i've been told i can't do things because either i'm not good enough, it's too expensive, or because everyone thinks i won't be able to go through with it. when i was a kid all i wanted to do was play baseball, but i couldn't obviously because i'm not a guy. i learned at an early age that i probably won't reach the things i strive for. i guess i'm a little pessimistic and stupid for thinking that i could actually play in a major league baseball team. but then again every little kid has those big dreams of who they want to be when they grow up.. whether it be a firefighter or a baseball player, most parents encourage their children.
senior year of high school i was so confused about what i wanted to do with my life (i still am to this day) that i didn't even apply to any colleges. i put everything off figuring i probably wouldn't get in anywhere anyway since my grades weren't so great. i regret all four years at high school. it was a joke. everything i learned there i just learned again at brookdale and the teachers there explained it better. whatever. i don't even know where i'm going with this anymore.
i went to visit
Pace University's main building.
an apple outside the main building.. i think it has the brooklyn bridge painted on it?
city hall.. across the street from the main building.. this is where they film most of law & order.
Ground Zero is within 5 mins walking distance from Pace.
Ground Zero again.
self-explanitory.
an old tree stump. the tree was knocked down by debris from one of the wtc buildings. you can actually still see the pipe at the bottom.
an old cemetary at St. Paul's Chapel. you can't even read the names on the tombstones anymore!
a fountain in city hall park.
the street where they film law & order!
today in NYC. it really is my dream school. it's in the middle of everything and i can't explain how at home i felt. hopefully i'll be graduating with my AA from brookdale in the spring. i'm changing my major to public relations since let's face it, i really have no interest in tv & radio, and that's the only communications option i have at brookdale. i only need about five or six more classes to graduate anyway.. i'll probably take one or two classes during winter break so i don't have to take any summer classes or go bizurk in the spring. if i get into this school and find a way to pay for it so many opportunities will come to me. this is like the beginning of big things, i hope. i'll have to wait it out for now i guess.
on another note.. everything else is going pretty good i guess. it's getting so cold out and my mom just put the heat on tonight. i need to do my photography assignments and write my paper. i'm so behind in school it's not even funny. ahh.
