History In The Making

We are all a history in the making and thinking about how history is unfolding these days makes me think about how we take four months in school to go through thousands of years of history but we skip all the little cracks in between the large parts of history. Years upon years from now the children sitting in their history class will learn about Osama bin Laden and even though it has taken 10+ years to get him it will take them less than one day to cover the events. Te class will go over the beginning of Osama to his end in a period of less than an hour and a half. I'm not a big history person but I wish we spent more time going over the little things and all the fights that we won and lost to get where we are today. Whether they were fights in a home or fights blown up to a world wide scale, I wanna know. The way history unfolded and still continues to unfold is so much more than in the books. I want to relive how people lived back in the stone age and the ages that follow that. I wanna spend at least one week for one hundred years of history. Learning everything the people went through. Way back before we even cared about who did what, people were saving us from ourselves. If we don't fight and stand up for ourselves, then we aren't making history, we're making cowards who are going to hide and let history repeat itself.

Death isn't something to celebrate. It's something to be happy or sad about and then let it get recorded for future generations so as not to forget who caused so much hurt. Let the hurt seep in because it makes you stronger and it helps you learn how to deal with what life will give you in the future.

Don't let history slip from your hands. Sam.

Life

Life is life is life, my friends. School is time consuming, looking for a job sucks, and getting horrible grades on tests that are for classes in your major is heart crushing. That being said, I still thoroughly enjoy the class. I realize that I need to study more and actually pay attention and care for what I'm doing in my classes. You learn a lot of life lessons in college and it is definitely a place where things come raining down on you. You have to be fast and able to deal with the shit that falls from the sky. It's hard, but if you try you can do it. I need to get my shit together, buckle down, and try as hard as I can to do what needs to be done. As of now, this includes studying for classes, paying attention in said classes, knit like my heart depends on it, search for jobs, apply for scholarships, and work out. It's so strange how it feels like things can pile up when, in reality, you can take a step back and a deep breath and realize that there are many small step...

College Life

Aww yeee. Livin' it up, yo. I'm kidding. Let's be honest here, I do nothing almost all the time. I don't go to parties, I'm not a person who goes out much, and overall I'm not interested in that kind of life. I like my sitting on the computer or playing video games all day. It suits me because I don't want to cause trouble and I don't want to get pushed into something I don't want to do. It's the perfect life. 8] My classes are pretty cool. I go to Northern Arizona University and am planning on getting a degree in Electronic Media and Film (EMF), which is going to be awesome. Right now my classes are pretty blah because it's my first semester at college. Even still, it's been a pretty good first week. I have a math class, an English class, and EMF class, a communications class, and a freshman seminar class. They're all pretty awesome, but the best class at the moment is definitely my seminar class because it's called Reinventi...

Long Time, No Update

Hello my  lovelies, I realize that it's been a few months shy of a year since I last updated and I'm not sure why that is. All I can assume for the last blog posted onto the sight is that school got busy and I forgot that I had a blog. I keep a link to my page up near my tabs so I'm not sure how I forgot that this existed, but it happened and it's over. If I remember, and I hope I do, I will continue to update this blog with posts about my life and what's going on. I have a few other blogs of varying degrees talking about other things such as college in and of itself, movies, and knitting. All of which I have not updated either. I think the website/profile thing I've updated most since February would be Twitter so I'd go ahead and follow me on that if you really want to keep track of me. I don't have much else to say except for the fact that it's nearing Christmas and I am beyond excited about that! Maybe I'll update on Christmas about what I got...
