Random Rant: End of the Summer
I used to be Mormon, but as of now I function as an agnostic. In certain debates people tend to assume or believe that I'm atheist. While I find myself unable to accept a world in which there is no god, I also cannot accept the fact that there is a god that cares about our every action, whim or desire. If there is a god, he's too tied up keeping the universe in order to give a damn about any single person.

Two close friends of mine have recently departed on life altering journeys. My friend Ava has gone to Africa to educate people in order to help the AIDS epidemic and my friend Jocelyn has just flown to China where she will be teaching elementary school children English for at least a year. What I've recently been thinking, is how amusing it is to know that as children we all focused our energy in being close to friends 100% of the time, our parents pulling us out of the houses of our friends to our own homes where we felt isolated, but never alone.

Now a days it seems as though the most important path we take must be walked alone and sometimes those paths leave us feeling strangely alone in a world so technologically knit.

I've recently and finally obtained my license. I've taken a course on driving, gotten a certificate to lower any future insurance and have already taken advantage of my license twice (I know, scary!) Manny moved in two days ago and needed someone to drive his car when he picked up his U-Haul and someone to take his car to the U-Haul depot when he dropped off his U-Haul. I drove with no incident.

Omar will be arriving in about 8 hours, car and family's truck packed with his belongings. I don't believe he's ever lived on his own before now, so I'm hoping will all get along and he'll have a good experience.

School starts in 12 days! Why am I still in school? It feels as though I've been attending a university for half my life, but this school year will hopefully be the end of it with at most two classes more to take Fall of 09. It's hard to tell with some of my prior credits still not correctly transferred.

Not much is going on. I'm still unemployed and my funds are still tight until the money for the coming semester is transferred into my account. I've mostly been biding my time handling moving people in, Mike moving out, exercise and gaming (a lot of it.)

Until I write anything further, just know that you need to play Braid and that screen shots and reviews cannot express how well this game executes what only a video game can do.
