Well I can't sleep...

So I love all of my Fall classes:
World Religions
Sociology
Total Wellness
Envrionmental Science
Liberal Arts Math

So far so good - all great professors - & no night classes. :)
World Religions is amazing already, I love that class - it doesn't feel like school. Super interesting. Anthony is 2 of my classes & Danielle & Anthony are in another. They definitely brighten up my day. & I love my choice of math - it's all logic, probability, statistics, etc. - instead of your normal algebra. As you can see I am getting all my Gen. Eds out of the way first - before I begin to mold my educational path & really start taking classes for my major. I am really eager to start applying to schools - but the whole "Transfer Student" thing is bit confusing/overwhelming. Gah.

Lately I've been very passionate about politics. Obama's speech at the D.N.C. was incredible. He is so inspiring. I know conservatives will always stay conservative - but I wish all the immature haters would stop being so ignorant about it all. I DO NOT think Obama is a "celebrity" or "a fad" - I think this is just an election A LOT of people are passionate about, & he is the change dream we've all been waiting for. Yes, I do pay attention & I don't just like Obama because he is different & labeled Liberal - even though I am a die-hard Liberal...He is passionate about many important things that pertain to me & my family. The housing crisis - my family was an INSANE victim of that - during my parents divorce - my senior year - which is why I didn't go to college - because the house didn't sell for over 15 months & was forclosed. The economy - sure we're all affected by gas prices - but I had to watch my own mother be un-employed for 6 months - which was really hard but thankfully ended. I am not playing the pity card I am just saying I DEFINE what he talks about as "middle class American families." I am personally connected to what he wants to change. - The buyers market - mortgages/loans, thousands of kids not having money to go to college, the overall economy - sharing a resourceful point of view on oil, etc. & cutting taxes on middle class Americans - who are suffering the most right now. Barack Obama gave his acceptance speech exactly 65 years to the day after Martin Luther King Jr's 'I have a Dream" speech. It is amazing to look at it from the big picture & to realize people are STILL questioning race in society. I don't think we could ask for a better black man! PLUS, people forget...he is HALF WHITE! It is incredible to me how selfish people are. I don't want another 4 years to go by & everyone's saying "what were we thinking not electing Obama..." just like how Al Gore surely would have been better than George W. Bush. & McCain picking the most anti-feminist woman on the planet for his VP?! WTF. If grown adult Americans cannot see right through that joke, I am ashamed to be associated with them - especially women. They have only met each other 2 times! This woman could potentially be our President - heaven forbid - McCain is a 72 year old cancer survivor! C'mon people....

All I'm saying is if you're not involved & you're over the age of 16 - get interested. Because it will affect your adult life tremendously. It is so important to pay attention & have your OWN opionions. Most of all - register to vote & actually vote! This only happens every 4 years!

In other news...the significant other - Steven - wonderfully wonderful.
But I can't help but always have that gut feeling I am not good enough.
I guess the insecurity is just a girl thing.
I would just like to enjoy my happiness (which I am) without always being scared it could all go away in the blink of an eye.
It is going really great though. :) :)

August was great - I hope September is even better.<3
