Fair Trade

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

So it’s been a while since I made a post on my blog.  Not too much has happened.  Classes started again.  This semester I have Circuits Analysis II, Digital systems design, Differential equations, and engineering ethics *coughghaycough*.  So far so good I would say.  We’ll see after the first test though.

Got a book scanner not to long ago, started scanning my books in, I’ve got a few chapters from two of my books scanned in.  it doesnt take that long, I just haven’t had too much time at home to do it.

Marti Gras is coming up here soon.  Looking forward to that, if the weather cooperates.

Meet a girl, her name if Valerie.  Super cute, pretty dorky like me, we’re getting along pretty well.  I’m not taking it too fast because she’s going to the Coast Guard around June for boot camp, then to some training thing, so she’s gonna be gone for like 6 months.  Maybe I should try speeding things up ;-). Anywho, I can’t do long distance relationships and I don’t think she can either.  So we’ll see how that goes.

Oh, the name of the post is about today.  I was try’n to get my buddy to buy me a snack.  I said taco’s.  After a bit of debate, he said he’d get me one if i ate a “fire” packet of taco bell sauce.  I did.  Thus I’m getting a free taco.  I think that’s a fair trade.

Anyways, that’s it, I’ll try to come up with more stuff to put up here from time to time.

History Lesson…

Saturday, December 22nd, 2007

 t’s been a while since my last real post, and for good reason. This semester was a bitch, and the end of it was evidence of this. I worked my ass of all semester to get good grades, and well at least I passed all my classes. Although, I’m happy to report I aced my programming class, 99.87 to be exact. I got a 103 on the final hehe. Now if only i could have done that on my calc final. However, I did pass calc, which is more than I could say for the fall. In retrospect, I should have just talked to Dr. Neath and I probably could have gotten the C. I wish I had talked to my cousin earlier than a week or two after the semester was over. I took engineering economics over again this semester, I failed it miserably in the spring. This semester I was doing good, but I suck at tests, I can teach people how to do this shit, but when it comes to the test, I suck it up. Mostly because they were multiple choice. I’m much better at computational stuff. The “one” computational quiz we got, I aced. I digress, I got a C I passed, I suppose I should be happy. What I am happy for though is I got a B in the seconds semester of physics. That was a hard course, but for some reason I got it, I understood it. I probably would have gotten a A had I not fubard the last test. I’m an idiot and suck at tests. I always go to fast and didn’t have time to review the test. I should just be happy with my B, but damn it I want A’s.

n other news, Leslie and I broke up. Not cause we hate each other or anything bad. We just decided we were poor matches. Just different outlooks on the world and values. You know, we are actually happier and have more fun being just friends. Which is great. I wish my relationship with Jessica had gone this way, but I’m sure I had a bit to contribute to how it went down. However, she’s over reacted several times and so it takes both parties for friendship to work out.

Leslie and I already swapped Xmas presents. We’re not going to see each other on Xmas, so it just made sense. Leslie collects the vintage collection games that sell at Target. I was there one day and saw they came out with some new ones. I picked her up Risk, only because I love the game, and it was a game of luck/strategy, so I thought she might like it. She did, at first (when she was winning) however, the next round I was dominating her. And she wasn’t having fun. I did it again the third round and that was it. So she took it home and played with her parents, and she wants a rematch cause she thinks she understands how its played now. I’ll be ready. She got me a fun Mario shirt, and a sushi making kit. Haven’t made any sushi yet, but I can’t wait! =)

h, BTW, mother nature is a bitch! Had a huge party planned out for my birthday last Saturday. Had a ton of people planning on showing up, even people from back home. What does it do? Snow’s like a mother fucker all day. I got about 10 – 12 people to show up, which was enough for me to have a good time. It just pissed me off to no end.

Well I think that’s enough of an update. I’ll try to get more thoughts up here.

Religion Fails…

Thursday, September 6th, 2007

You might see the title of this and if your a religious fanatic you might just ignore this. Those who do read this will agree or disagree which is alright. This is my view and my opinion.

Now, I don’t really consider myself an atheist per say, mostly because I just don’t care about religion at all, it’s just a way to control the masses and people who are controlled by it are either naive or take confront in knowing they are controlled. For a lot of people religion is a good thing, allows them to meet new people, have something to do on a regular basis and gives them some peace in their life. But what gets me is when religion and beliefs are taking the wrong way. Like anyone else who isn’t religious, I don’t like it when people try to push their religion, we call them bible thumpers. However, that’s not what I’m ranting about here. In Christianity and I’m sure Catholicism both push for no sex before marriage. If two people who are in love and believe the same way, great, good for them. They are doing what they believe in, no problems there. However, when two people who are getting married just because they want to have sex, they are saving themselves for the wrong reasons, and this is where religion fails. Mainly because I hear of young couples who are into their faith, but because of said faith they end up rushing into marriage just so they can do it. If sex is so important to you and so is your faith, one should give more priority than the other. Rushing a marriage can only end it hardships. This isn’t always true, but many times it is. Personally sex is nothing prefect to savor for your first time, if you want a good sexual experience it’s going to take practice, just as if you were doing a math problem or hitting a baseball. For those who wish to save their selves for marriage and then have a perfect deflowerfication on their wedding night are naive, and will (I guarantee it) not be perfect and you WILL be disappointed. I know no one who’s had a perfect “first time.” To have a prefect wedding night sexual experience, I recommend finding your best friends, or getting a best friend who’s willing to practice and not develop feelings because of it. This way you can teach yourself how to do it right and have a perfect night with the one you love. The reason this comes out is a friend of mines’ sister is getting married for that very same thing and my friend isn’t happy about it, but is going along with it because it’s what her sister wants. It’s a shame but that’s how religion fails, it either helps or hurts people and its a shame.
