My deepest apologize for not posting in so long. It all came so fast..finals, then moving out, then summer break..
I also got a temporary work position (it was really an internship, but that's what all the other employees referred to it as) at NCSU, so that took up another 4weeks of my time.
And as far as how that went....well, I'll put it like this: there's only two types of people when it comes to research--those who love it and those who hate it. No in-betweens. There are tons of different types of research out there, but this rule mainly applies to all of them.
Which one am I? Well, you know me; I never abide by the rules. So let's just say that I don't fit in either of those categories. (:
It was an AHMAZING experience though, and I don't think I can emphasize that enough. So if you're still in school, look into it (research always looks great on any type of resume). And if you're a parent, push your kids to try it out. Don't worry, it's not like they'll be signing their life away to the subject that the research is in. Whether they're interested in it or not, look at it as a learning experience for them.
When it comes down to more serious matters, I usually talk about timely events. And I typically don't mind crossing boundaries that shouldn't be crossed. But the thing that has been huge in recent news is the Trayvon Martin/ George Zimmerman trial. The reason I am not going to talk about this is because there is just so much to consider and take into account. I am a very logical person, so I take ALL factors into account when choosing a side. This being said, I am always greeted with nasty remarks disagreeing with my opinions that have an emotional/moral basis. And not saying that this way of thinking is wrong; but living in the USA, emotions aren't really too welcome in the courtroom, talk less the judicial system as a whole. I also do want to give the family time to mourn (Really, guys, try to have some respect for them and let things cool down. It's unimaginable to think what they're going through, unless you've experienced such a thing yourself.)
But do expect a lengthy post revolving that in the future!
And for my short-story lovers....
Have no fear! I haven't completely abandoned writing. I just had to lay off it a bit in order to focus on my studies. But with this year coming around, my studies are becoming more crucial. The only reason I can promise you guys more is because it will be inevitable for me to take a break sometimes to blow off some steam--which I do through writing/acting and going to the gym. So don't lose faith in me!! (:
Quick question: There is a lot of hype surrounding vlogging (video blogging). Would you guys like a few of those? Let me know.
So expect more frequent posts, stay safe, and everyone have a wonderful summer!! ^.^
(Also, RIP to Cory Monteith, who passed away two days ago. I didn't know very much about him, nor do I watch Glee, but as a young successful actor, he receives my respect, and my blessings go out to his family.)
(And I have also made another blog....Since this is apparently "so 2006"....the link is below!!
Tumblr
You will see a little more informal posts, which just shows off my quirky personality. So follow me!!)
