Great blog
Obviously, I just recently started my blog and have not really discovered or developed the format I would like to continue. But, my friend Ericka (who moved from Lincoln, NE to California) has an amazing blog. Her writing is more literary and less journalistic, but she also includes interesting features on things of importance such as upcoming films, artists and so on. Her blog explains a lot about her and her lifestyle and it is definitely not boring. Be sure to check out her blog http://erickapedia.blogspot.com/.
You may remember when you were younger people would always ask "So, what do you want to be when you grow up?" Well, I figured after I "grew up" the question would stop. But really, the question just changed into "What are your plans after you graduate?" This is really discouraging. I don't want to jump into a career I am going to be unhappy with merely because I am expected to get a job. I don't want to be stuck at a dead-end job in a state that I'm constantly wanting to leave. That sounds like a miserable path to me.
For the sake of courtesy, I usually just avoid a specific answer by saying "Well, I don't actually graduate until the summer. I still have two more classes to take."
Plus, I had a friend tell me once that his friend (an econ major) said people who start their careers in a recession end up making 15% less over the span of their lifetime. Therefore, the smartest thing for me to do is wait until the economy starts peaking again. Right?
This same friend is also interested in the Peace Corps and he plans to do that and then attend graduate school. So who knows what I will end up doing. Wherever the wind may take me is kind of my philosophy right now.

Cinco de Mayo
Porque hoy es el Cinco de Mayo quiero escribir esto en español. Estoy utilizando un traductor de Inglés a Español por lo que los resultados podrían no ser completamente exacta. Sin embargo, sigo pensando que es genial. No puedo creer que canceló las celebraciones del Cinco de Mayo en algunos lugares. Cinco de Mayo es un gran día para la liberación de Mexico. Todos a causa de la gripe que maldito que tiene a todos en un ataque. No se preocupe. Yo todavía celebrar.
Cuando se baja de mi cuarto de trabajo a los seis vamos a ir a Chicago vieja para tener un par de tragos. Recientemente he descubierto que me gusta Corona. Así que probablemente el orden de la Corona un bar con mi comida. No es una fiesta muy grande que conozco. Porque tengo un examen pasado mañana.
