On My Mind

Another semester down! Only one and one half years left and I cannot wait. Although I enjoy school, getting a job with better pay, and a job where I can show off my skills, is incredibly important to me. People say that I am expecting too much, but I say you truly can do whatever you set your mind too. My mind is set and there is no stopping me......

I realize that many people graduate college and end up doing nothing with their degree. I believe this is because the person is not trying hard enough. Getting a job, especially right now, is certainly rough, but it is possible. In order to get the job I want I am willing to work as hard as I can, and then some. I am aware that I might be putting a little bit of pressure on myself, but that is what it is all about! By it, I mean life, and without a little pressure to succeed, succeeding will not be in the stars....

A Ramble on Guns and Mental Health

Recently I have seen more and more posts on social media websites about gun control, the lack there of, or there being too much. The recent shooting at an elementary school in Pennsylvania is an awful tragedy that has happened and many people believe that these kinds of incidents would not happen if guns were not allowed to be in the hands of citizens. I do not know exactly where I stand on the gun issue, but I do know that anyone who is inclined to murder a multitude of people has a mental issue, and I think that society needs to address these issues when related to guns and the well-being of all citizens.

The Heaviest Sword

“Belief is a beautiful armor, but makes for the heaviest sword” – John Mayer             What makes us believe in something? Why do we feel that we must believe in anything? Is there anyone out there who truly believes in nothing?  Or better yet, is there anyone in the world who truly believes in something?              Most children believe in Santa Claus.  I never did.  I pretended to for the sake of my parents, but by the time I was six years old, I told them I didn’t believe in him.  Many of my friends believed in Santa well beyond six years old and I didn’t let them know I knew the truth. I did often wonder how my friends never caught on though. Maybe they did and were just pretending, as to not ruin anyone else’s belief in the magic of good ole St. Nick.

Oh Finals.....

Finals are slowly approaching, which means I will be devoting most, if not all, of my time to my wonderful textbooks. Studying and paper writing will be consuming my next few weeks! Perhaps I will post a paper or two that I have written when all is said and done. Look forward to reading about Anxiety and Addiction, or a paper written about the effects of tobacco and alcohol advertising and whether or not I believe it should cease to exist! I will not give my opinion on that subject away yet! Until next time here's to hoping finals go smoothly!!!
