I definitely got roped into this whole blog thing. I am mostly a private person and don't go broadcasting my thoughts and feelings to a group of people let alone an infinite amount of them. However, two of my friends have recently started blogs and that inspired me to do mine. 1) Ryan started his in Korea, and it's an awesome way of following his experience. But the other thing about it is that it's Ryan. He's open and shares his day and feelings and you can tell that's what he is all about and you have to respect that.
The other is J.T. who is also in Korea, and I enjoy his posts, but those only come once every 3-4 weeks. So, to show that I can keep up a blog and continue to post, in the hopes that he will also be encouraged to keep putting up posts on his blog.
I don't think i necessarily have anything interesting to say, but i'm hoping in sharing my experiences and little truths that it'll be as interesting and entertaining as I find my friends. I also have a lot of time to kill in between classes.
I'd say for the most part I am unsettled. I am commuting to Kent for classes MWF, i am looking for a steady job while working whatever shifts my Browns security job tosses my way. I do not want to be living at home, but my financial situation leaves me no choice. All the while, I am trying to figure out what I want to do in life, but can't make a decision to choose one course to study in college.
I'm finding a degree is necessary to get a quality job, but it's not necessarily the specialization in that subject that helps, I think it's more important to build the learning and research tools to acquire knowledge and skills you need to handle a demanding job. I think that is where my problem comes with the degree. I would rather focus on the specialization rather than developing these tools, and there in i struggle, regardless of what subject I may pick, bound to fail because I'm not focusing on the truly important.
That's my first rant, and now i'd like to share to things, one good one bad
I love softball! I have a fall league going and i just love playing. The sport, i'll play with anyone. Our first game went horribly, 23-2. I still had fun, i played well . I just worry that if the season continues that way, it will be hard to play for fun. Winning isn't the be all end all, but it definitely helps. And I can go on like that all season, i just don't know if all the players can. So that will be a work in progress, and I think improvement is more important than winning.
Now the ugly. I've been in this funk lately, and I think the thing for me is, i feel my social life has kind of gone stale. I still have good friends, but i feel like i don't meet new people and that stinks. So i need to work on that. I'm think im chats with friends as opposed to individually iming each person is sooo much better, so I do that when I can. But i wanted to use a chat room just to talk about anything, sports, news, current events, politics, just be dumb, have fun, annoy people, talk to someone new, whatever. But the chatrooms are ridiculous, they are so overrun with bots selling porn there are no people in there. Which kind of ruined it and made me mad. So that's the bad, and I'm done for now.

i'm a big fan of the blog! It is sweet, they're silly but whatever. it's better to do than not. I also signed up on myspace at someone's advice.
Mike I think this is a great idea. I left your im up for two days before I had time to check it out but totally worth it.
I'll try to check regularly, school keeps getting in the way.
