awake and dreaming
i'm free free at last! last week was really stressful, actually got to sleep for ten hours yesterday. yey its finally winter break!
some musings: (grrr wish i knew how to do bullet points oh well)
sometimes i feel so guilty about how fortuante i am, and that i complain about things i should be soooo grateful for, and that the silliest things make me cry....
i wonder what it would be like to live in a third world county, might want to join the peace corps some day to get just a taste of what its like to live in another much less spoiled country then america....like africa or the contient so many people seem to forget about, south america (barely ever mentioned in the news even though there is so much continous turmoil down there)
i have found that i really enjoy history class and learning about the past, but right now the future scares me because america has been a country for such a freakin short time! only about 200 years (right?) while the egyptian civilzation lasted for over 1000 years... eventually, probably not soon at all, but eventually, america's time of superioriority will fade and what will become of this nation?
also just the human race has only been around for less than 4 million years which might seem like a lot but when you think of how long the earth has been around (4.4 billion years ago!) its barely a fraction of the percentage of life on this planet and in such an encredibly short time humans have done so much to harm the environment! (my opion) gah anyway just felt like venting...
sometimes i feel so helpless and insignificant.
