Self-actualization, a term often too loosely thrown around, it is often used to describe someone very "successful" and content. I would like to challenge these uses of the term, challenge them by saying that the closest one will typically come to self-actualization is during their college years. I feel that during this time is when one is most in ( Read more... )

Don't you wish you were Libertarian too?

Over the last few years there seems to have been an upward swing for the "punk" genre. High school girls and awkward guys have been quick to jump on the bandwagon. The problem I see in all of this is a key element missing. "Punk" music isn't about making fun music that everyone would like. It's not about heart brake or heart ache. It's also ( Read more... )

I want to start this update with a small part about something I have observed here at GaTech. If nothing else it is an education that I will be able to use for the entirety of my life. So my observation that most people grow up a lot during college especially their first year is fairly universal, but one thing that I have noticed the past few ( Read more... )

So tonight I had to battle my instincts. I was driving down the interstate and I saw the infamous "Baby on Board" sticker on the back of a car. Let's pause for a minute from my thoughts and try to figure out the thoughts of the person(s) that: 1) designed this 2) that puts it on their car. Why? I mean where did this thought come from? Do ( Read more... )

I have no reason for updating other than boredom, but what reason do I typically have? Well, that is the question. If everything was made of glass, then where would you hide?
