The Mysterious Dove

You know what I find interesting? We spend so much time feeling as though we are missing something, although most of us arn't aware of what that something is.  Then all of the sudden, things start happening.  Like the falling pieces of dominos, everything starts to click into place. I, myself, have found myself a dove. Of course, this is all metaphorically speaking.  Nonetheless, this dove has appeared to have been able to do wonderful things!!  And it's all to myself! Oh, joyful days-they will not be able to stop this time.

The Wondrous Summer Assignment . . . and the Dumbing Down of America

As this charming summer seems to progress along quite nicely many students, including myself, are braced with hours of back-wrenching summer homework.  Ah, yes; the infamous talk about the so called worst part of the summer.  But oh contrary my exquisite friends!  Summer homework allows the feeble minds of the once great thinker’s to be able to open up the wondrous gates of their own minds, and allow the so-called “gears” to begin to churn once more.  I, myself, am already a majority of the way finished.  On those scorching (yet gorgeous nevertheless) beach days, when there is nothing more to do – because you’re either surrounded by the not so voluptuous eyesores or you just may be one of those grouchy I-hate-water goers – there is nothing better to do then to grab your summer assignments and get to it while the sun is applying a fresh, thick coat of skin cancer along your exposed backside.  America is known for its depleting education systems.  I say we must fight back!!  Embrace the power of your geometry textbook and don’t fear those physics calculations.  We musts help discontinue the so-called “dumbing down of America”.  Otherwise….I heard India has some call centers open with jobs needed.  Best of luck!

4th of July-Family Time

Today is the glorious 4th of July.  For some, it means celebrating the many years this great country has been together and when we broke away from British rule; for others, it means a night of drinking, fireworks, and relentless shouting throughout the streets at many ungodly hours of the night.  The majority of people (or possibly the minority, I haven't witnessed much of the dark underbellies of our country) take this day as an excuse to spend time with their families, barbecuing and sharing stories of past events that occurred before their last encounter.  Some families have that crazy Aunt that never married, just sitting alone in the corner muttering to herself about the good ol' days.  Other families have the ubiquitous drunk Uncle, in my case, I have an hysterically funny Uncle who can always turn a situation into a comedy show.  Although I, myself, do not have much of the stereotypical family members, I do have something better; a loving family that I only get to see every few months!  This may upset some people, to see family members so infrequently.  I see it as a positive thing.  More time to catch up instead of awkward moments where nothing is said.  All-in-all, the 4th of July is more of a family catch-up than celebrating the countries "birthday".  With that said, Happy Birthday America!
