November update

Well it's about time for another update.

Not much has happened in the past few weeks. I officially work at Williams-Sonoma in the Copley Plaza, which has proven to be a blessing and curse. On one hand, I have something to do on the weekdays with my time and I'm getting a paycheck for it. On the other hand, I am stuck for 8 hours a day on my feet selling home goods that I don't care about with a bunch of people I don't really want to hang out with...sigh...it's a troubled life. OH, AND I'm stuck in Mass still, which is getting old quickly.

Of course I've been applying to more jobs in NYC and most recently, to a position that is going to open up in Sydney, AU through BU. It would be a Program Assistant job and would get me out of the States for a few years, which sounds really attractive right now. If I have my way, I'll be on a plane down under in early January, joining my cousin and some other friends for a beautiful Sydney summer.

Besides that, life is normal. I saw Twilight the Movie and it wasn't anything like the book. Quite a disappointment if you ask me. Thanksgiving is coming up, which is always fun. Ya...my life is boring.

Till next time.

A New Era!

It's a breath of fresh air. Once again, the American people prove that we're moving forward to better society. During this truly groundbreaking election, as women and African Americans were both strongly represented, we were able to show a new face, a much needed represented face, of the American people. Despite the current economics crisis, the environmental crisis, and other aspects that plagued our past years, it's time to look ahead to a new era. A new era filled with possibilities and chances that was never dreamed before. I can honestly say, I'm proud to be an American.

After hearing Obama's speech tonight, I am inspired and moved as I finally hear a leader. A leader who will take us out of this time of darkness and bring America into a new light. A leader who knows our plight and is willing to put himself on the line for his country. A leader who will bring a new hope. Barack Obama 2008!

Till next time.

Beginnings

Well it's officially November 4th. And, coincidentally, on the same day I hope the country ends the Republican "reign", I, myself, am closing doors of my life and starting new. It's a weird feeling to reflect back, not with regret, but with no intention to repeat any of the same patterns. So I welcome the new era with a sigh of relief, knowing that what the future has in store for me is a whole new adventure.

Till next time.
