Theory
As I further my college career it becomes more apparent to me that I don't enjoy doing what I'm doing in my life right now. I've looked at it as "positively" as I possibly could and I still can't see why I should stay. As more time goes by I begin to look for something to put my effort in and I see more and more navy reserves and navy seals return home after spending their time working hard over seas. So right than and there I think I put it in the back of my head that to join a team of that extent wouldn't only be cool but beneficial as well. Attending school since 2012's fall season to the spring of 2013 the road has been a little rocky with not knowing how my college life was going to be but unwittingly I knew it was going to fall apart sooner or later, after high school college wasn't the right path for an individual like me. What about you?!

Extraneous Education
Watching many movies, reading several books, and learning about the importance of education in school has been a very sensitive but nevertheless necessary topic. Understanding that to become a successful citizen in today's 21st century society you must at least have obtained a high school diploma. With that being said why do you believe that in order to get a job working at McDonald's the biggest (fast food restaurant) in the world they make sure you have your diploma? How hard could it be to flip buyers or take orders? Now it doesn't really mean much to just have a diploma 80-90% of professional careers require some form, preferably, a bachelors degree in a certain field. In my opinion an extra 4 years of school isn't going to change much, and if it's so essential to the workforce why not teach it in mandatory schooling, why wait to "teach" it in college?

North Korea's "Threats"
Watching CNN, and the Daily Show they've been broadcasting new threats against the United States of America, Hawaii, Guam, Alaska, and military bases in Japan. Korea's leader Kim Jung Yu Adolf Hitler look a like says that if America doesn't take notice to the many threats that are plainly being displayed than they do plan to attack. President Obama and congress have been vigorously working towards calming and trying to diffuse the highly "nuclear" situation, what do you think?

Snitch the movie
Watching snitch the movie over my spring break was an eye opening experience. I saw that even in movies the emotions of a real life action could have severe and nerve touching consequences. I also saw that when something so close and near to your well being is at stake you'd do, say, go, and complete almost anything to get that special someone out of whatever trouble that they may have been unfortunate to get themselves into. Writing this post made me think about how I would go about in the same predicament and I honestly thought about it and came to the conclusion that I wouldn't know how to respond/react if this was to occur.

Origin of Originality
In our first discussion we talked about how we felt about originality. Originality to me does not really exist anymore, and if it does,it happens very rarely. I think that if everyone was to be “original” than the advancement of new ideas or techniques would cease to exist. Being "different" isn't bad at all it's a new form of expression and being diverse is what brought about all the different cars, shoes, malls, clothes, and even games being unique to your nature is appreciating why and what made you extraordinary in the first place. Society bases it's normal outlook on what they want you to be instead of what's actually normal to begin with.
