Right now im sitting in Zauel library, putting off the important reading i should be doing and instead wasting my time on this damn computer which i am deprived of at home.
Today in class i figured out that i think i want to be a history major. I was just sitting there marvelling at our past world and how amazing everything is and it hit me.
Despite my lack of getting my ass in gear last year, i am going to have to work pretty hard to keep up with everything this year , but I'm willing and all of my classes are very interesting. I think i'm really going to enjoy world poli.
Despite my world travels and hanging out with all of you fine folks, my summer was pretty boring. I wish i would have done so much more and seen so many more of you.
Do you think if i get out of here all of my problems will go away?? I'm trying to decide if transfering is worth more than the trouble it will give me. I just want to experience so much more.
I'm picking up Casey today from school and hopefully we will have a h2h. I really miss certain someones.
p.s- if i were to write a book, all of you playing that wonderous game at phil's were right. I t would be about middle east peace.
I leave you with a thought from a friend of mine:
THE PRICE OF THE OCCUPATION
In the end we all become victims, soldiers included, to the few power elite who use us as cannon fodder, and dupe us by their framings to accept (if only grudgingly) their policies. Or, as an alternate title has it:
SACRIFICING PALESTINIANS, ISRAELIS AND LEBANESE ON THE ALTAR OF SETTLEMENTS
One day im going to be the head of the UN or the peace corp or something, wouldn't that be a scary place
