It's just one of those moments...

It's just one of those moments in time that make you who you are. Lately I've been feeling really disappointed with people. It's one of those things that come back to bite you in the ass once you let your guard down.

This is a really weird time for me. It's like all I'm feeling is just gravitating downwards. Usually I'm very positive about things, but it's really hard to stay that way when things around you become so negative. And I'm not really talking about the Virginia Tech thing. Let's just say it's one reason why I'm so down.

I tend to have a lot of faith in people and those people usually end up letting me down. People say move on, but it's really hard once you've attached yourself to something. I guess all I need now is time and a shoulder to lay my head on. I had a long talk with my parents and close friends on how I'm feeling. I love the fact that there are people who I can turn to.

I guess it's going to take a long while to make myself happy as I was...
As for the Virginia Tech Massacre, it really upsets me on how people can be so selfish and blame other people for their actions. No one can make you do anything you don't want to do. You would think that the events of Columbine and 9/11 would persuade people to see that violence is not the answer.

But I still pray for his soul and the other souls that went up to Heaven.

Kyle Vinton of Towson Univerisity had this to say:

..."I am disturbed by the fact that I am still alive and they are not. What would they have done for the world, for even a single person, and for friends and family? What am I to do now? Does it really matter? I am stationary, currently in the shadows of hose newly departed. How can I continue on with my life as if nothing happened? How can I be so apathetic towards my fellow brothers and sisters?

We're all living this one life together and now this world is no longer a whole. The way the died was not right. The way hundreds of thousands are dying in violence daily is not right.

What gives a person the right to take those college students' live? What gives a person of that state of mind the right to own a gun? The second amendment to the Constitution?

I'm so sock of hearing that! I would gladly tear up that old piece of paper if it meant those 32 kids could be brought back to life! Do you think our founding fathers lived in a world where school shootings occurred? In a world where 9/11 happened? We have to start learning from our mistakes."*

I don't understand anymore....
Well I guess on to a more lighter subject. I signed up for classes for the Fall 2007 Semester (Subject to change)

DFST 107- American Sign Language T/Th 8-915am
I've always wanted to learn. But there's a chance I'll have to drop this class...just cuz of what's ahead...

DANC 211 - Tap II W 5-8pm
Finally! I'm taking Tap 2! It's been like two years since I put on those tap shoes. Too bad it's a night class...

EMF 275 - Principles of Film and Video Editing T 63o-10oopm. (Yeah...)
This class is going to be one of those classes....yeah....

EMF 373 - Electronic Field Production T/Th 11-1215pm
All I know is that my friend Kristen is going to be in this...

EMF 377 - Broadcast Film Writing Th 2-445pm
Kristen is taking this class too...

EMF 375 - Broadcast performance T/Th 93o-1045am
This is one of those classes that's probably going to kill me. I've been hearing that this teacher is awful..I couldn't take the other guy cuz it's a MW class....

Notice how I don't have any Monday or Friday class....four day weekend!...That means more work within those days

I got a new babysitting job. Did I mention I got one back in Fall? If I didn't, now I am. It's a family in Towson and I go every Tuesday.

But now I got a new family. It's my advisor. Yeah. It's really funny. I saw him with his son in the mall in TinyTown USA while I was babysitting David. I looked at him and I was like "hmm he looks familiar" and he said "Yeah, I'm your advisor", and I'm like "Oh, hello". It was one of those things where I didn't recognize a person outside their usual setting...but yeah...I got a new family...whoopie!

This summer I'll be working the WHOLE month of July with the Kwons. I've been babysitting them for over a year now. WOW. And in the first week of August, they're taking me to New Hampshire/Maine territory again...so yeah lol that should be fun!
