Van Wilder Syndrome

Okay soo I have been meaning to write this for a while...which basically means that I have been suppressing my emotions, just like any other good male. Whatever, so what I wanted to talk about for a long time is my career here in college. I call it a career because it is the longest thing, besides life, that I have done consistently to date. Even now that I have a Bachelors I am still hanging around college students and going to parties; ya know not really moving on with my life I guess. That's just it though; what is it that is really waiting for me beyond the threshold of college? Is it this world of unknown opportunities or a world of bend over and take it for years, just to never fully reach a position of any real influential decision making? It took me 5 years to graduate because mainly I have the mind of an Engineer trapped inside of the personality of a Extrovert!  I wish I had found my current group of friends when I transferred over here, but sadly my brain knows that is a logical impossibility because I would have been out of school and on to a career that I would suffer in for years if I graduated on time. I know that the punctuation's aren't correct (if they are let me know!) but i blame that on the math and a little bit on the rambling. Any who I am going to break this para/powergraph up because its boring.

Ahhh thats a bit better. Okay, so this thing college that we all pay a boat load for is sadly something that some of the worlds richest, not wealthy, people have never attended because it was a waste of time and ground in a theoretical nature. Its hard to write with that playing in the background lol. I don't really know what the point of  this rambling was other than to express the fact that I am 7 years into this life stlye and I understand that the pressures of society want me to "grow up", but let me tell you something as you read. I am optimistic and crazy because I have grown up way more that a kid should have in his younger years and I have bottled up a lot of things that I am learning to let go slowly but surely. I am not an open book because I never have had that luxury. I am an African American male who takes people for who they are and not their Religion, Creed, Status, Sexual Orientation, Beliefs, Disbeliefes, or their Race (which is a falicy created to produce a validation in humanities difference and evolutionary traits). You are who you are and your gunna do what your going to do; so really all i can do is try my best to be your friend/associate for the time being and possibly longer.

P.S.- Old school love songs are my thing so I have this need/want to LOVE someone........

6am Political Ti-raid

Okay so I just need to say this... Flying Spaghetti Monster

STOP LISTENING TO OTHER PEOPLES OPINION AND USING THAT AS THE ONLY BASIS FOR OUR DECISION MAKING.

Basically what I am saying is people like Glen Beck should not be allowed to talk. By no means am I against freedom of the press but people go to court everyday over defamation of character. Yet, it seems that when it comes to politics that all gets thrown out the window, on both sides. I myself do not want to be a politician, so that argument is out, because I have this moral code that may get me elected but will get me no where because of my not wanting to play hardball. I have always felt that it was absurd for politicians to have any other money given to them, other than the salary I am already paying for out of my paycheck. You may ask why? Why all of a sudden is a black guy writing about politics now that there is a black-ish president. Well I will tell you simply in the way it was put to me in my 11th grade AP American History class. My teacher was talking to us about presidents and said, "there are some unwritten rules about being the president: Being a male, Being a christian, Being white....." Ever since I was a kid I never even gave the notion to there ever being a black president, but once I saw one get elected I knew that this was going to end one of two ways. This was either going to be a great chance for our country to actually get past its racial divide and open the country to other ways of thinking, or this was going to crash and burn to ensure another minority never gets elected again. I myself an an Independent, probably just as another way for me to avoid another inalienable stereotype, but its mainly because the right person is the right person regardless of blind party voters. If I could only ask one question to every blue collar Republican or Democrat it would be simply, " What has your party ever done for you and people in your situation?"

Look I am just tired of how the mudslinging has been horrible, and I mean atrocious over the last 5 years. No other president has ever had to show a birth certificate! I am only angry about this because I know I am probably going to have a child someday, and more than likely that child will be mixed. If a well educated and intelligent American citizen who has proved his political pedigree over and over again cant get a fair chance because he happens to have a higher level of melanin content than his predecessors, then what kind of shot does a child like mine have at achieving that dream.

I black and as far as i know in no way evil sooo...Fuck you Mormons(early ones who dont think for themselves)!
