I don't know what I feel like writing about
Politics?
So who is this John Kerry guy anyways? I really don't know much about him other than the fact that he's a Democrat. I don't think that Bush is doing a great job as President, but then I'm not going to bash him either. Will I vote for Bush in November? Probably, assuming I'm not disenfranchised again....yeah that's right, New York State screwed up my absentee ballot somehow in '02. I never got it. Anyways, the only reason I say I'll probably vote for Bush is because I don't like the Democratic ideas about making the government bigger by helping people out. I realize that's a huge over-generalization, but whatever. I guess I would be considered Libertarian leaning in my political views, but since there's basically no room for third parties in America, it doesn't matter. So what's the deal with this Kerry guy, and do I actually care? Not yet. Check back round about October.
Italics are fun
Grad School?
So I was sitting in the eye doctor's office this morning and I started thinking about grad school. I figure if that's what I want to do after Case, I should make some decisions about it fairly soon. I mean, applications would be due in the fall, and I figure as long as I'm working and have a lot of free time, it would be nice to get them done or at least started over the summer. But I still really don't know if I even want to go to grad school. I think my top choices right now based solely on geography would be University of Southern California or MIT. Like I said, I'm not sure I want to go to grad school, but the idea of starting "the rest of my life" at a full time job only 15 months from now is really scary.
Guitar?
This week I've been practicing my guitar every day after work. I still suck, but it's been fun. I guess I really don't have too much to say about it.
Work?
So my co-op is going pretty well, like I said in a previous post. I don't know. It's interesting, but a lot of the time I really don't feel like I've got much to do. When I do have something to do it usually leads to problems and a brick wall. That can be frustrating. On the other hand though, I don't know what I would do without work. As much as I'd like to sit around all day and do nothing, I just don't think I could handle it. It's a great theory, but you really have to have something to keep you busy, to have a purpose in life.
Lotto?
So I saw that the jackpot was up to 150 million dollars today on a billboard. I started thinking to myself about what I would do if I won that much money. I think that I would finish off my co-op and my undergraduate degree, but after that I would take some time off. Enjoy my life while I'm still young. I would like to go travel the world, and have fun. I would pay off my college and my car, of course, as well as invest most of the money. I also think that I would like to buy a couple properties to rent out. The first things I would buy though, would be cars. I would immediately buy a Ferrari 360 Spider, an Enzo, and of course, my absolute dream car, a Ferrari 250 GT California Spider. Isn't it fun to dream? But....

Social Life?
Check out the band Koufax and their CD "social life" if you've never heard of them. IM me if you want a sample. But anyways, this is something that's been kind of dull since I've been working. Tony's a good guy, and I enjoy chilling with him, but I just don't feel like I get out enough. I really don't have contact with too many different people during the week. Then if I do see people from Case I don't really feel that comfortable anymore, or I feel like I'm imposing. (Thanks a lot for that guilt trip, JP, or should I say ;p) I don't know. It's just something I'd like to improve. By the way, I bought my ticket for A Perfect Circle. If anyone still wants to go, I'd love to have you come, and I'll even give you a ride. Rock on, kids, rock on.....eeeeeeeeeeew (;-) Sam lol)
Sooooooo I guess that about wraps up what's been on my mind. Oh yeah, one more thing, for all y'all, is that I'm going home for the three day weekend on Friday. So I'll either see you (Batavia people) or I'll miss ya (Cleveland people)
(Of course, I couldn't go without my rant about how Valentine's day is the most useless fabricated holiday out there. I hate it, and not just because I'm bitter. It's stupid. Period. Let me put it this way:
Valentine's Day:Holiday::Chicago:Movie
I think you should all get that, and if you don't, ask me for my opinion on the movie Chicago sometime....)
I'm out.
