| Amazingly, my Freshman Year at Baruch College is over. Strangely enough, it seems just like yesterday when I first walked into the Vertical Campus for my first day of classes, confused and wondering what this new world will be like. But, we have made it through and have completed this year. It has been a very eventful year and I really learned a lot this year, both academically and about myself. I'm glad that I met so many good people here at Baruch and elsewhere. These people come from all walks of life, from places that I can only imagine visiting at this moment in my life. Someday, I may get to travel to such places and maybe meet the friends that I have made this year, but for now, all I can do is treasure the time that I have left to be with them until they must depart. It's wonderful knowing that you can travel to some distant place from this city on this tiny island and have someone that you actually know. I am officially a Sophomore now. I just recieved credit for one of my classes so that I now have 28 credits. In this single year alone, have come one step closer to finding out my purpose in this world. I have come one step closer to seeing what the future may hold in store for me. But despite experiencing and learning all of this, there are still many steps that I must take in this journey that we call "life." So with this, I will move on. I shall continuing taking steps in my life. And I will see and embrace what is to come. | | |
| Well, with all of the recent write downs and turmoil in the economy, my dad may be out of a job soon at Merrill Lynch. If that happens, our life is going to be very different. I probably also won't be able to dorm in the city at EHS if this happens.
So I'm crossing my fingers and praying for the best. All I can do is hope that everything works out in the end... | | |

...You'd have to be pretty damn brave to actually WANT to be President at this time in history. Sure, there's a large amount of power, but you'd have to deal with a world that increasingly dislikes America, an economy that's in turmoil, a healthcare system that's flawed, a governmental system that's got problems, and a war and an increasingly violent world.
But someone's gotta do it, I guess. :) | | |
| 50 degrees in February and no significant snowfall in January. Scary, isn't it? | | |
| Well, I have stumbled upon this Xanga page again and have decided to write another entry. Perhaps, it shall resurrect my site, but I have a feeling that it shall continue to remain dormant, as I run around to do all of the crazy college student things that I have to do.
Life has been, how can I put it, "interesting" in these last few months. I am amazed to realize that in the four months of the Fall 2007 semester, I have learned more about myself than I have learned in my whole lifetime. And I realize that I have still much more to learn. I was depressed at certain moments, but I realized that I am only 18. Why the fuck am I being depressed for? I have a lifetime ahead of me!
I enjoyed last semester. I know I'll enjoy this semester.
I am going to live life. Embrace it. Play things by ear. Let things flow.
I look back at some of my past entries on this weblog and am amazed to see how immature I was. I guess I was naive at the time. I had some more growing to do.
I hope to continue writing on this page. It's such a shame I even left for such a long time period. But then again, when I was writing every day, some of those entries were pointless. Though, they are not entirely pointless. As we learned in Philosophy last semester in those extremely long and boring lectures, as Aquinas tried to create a logical process of reasoning to justify the existence of God, he stated that each series of events leads to another. And without the previous event, a current event could not exist. Similarly, what I have experienced in the past has helped to create who I am today.
So yes. They are not entirely pointless.
I will continue writing. Maybe not everyday. But yes. I will be here more often, now!  | | |
