SHIT I WANT [how very hypocritical to my new anti materialism mantra]
- a dirt cheap fanny pack
- shoes that don't make me slip when I play frisbee on geisel
- a bigger cd collection (brit invasion stuff dude, school me)
- to see the complete issuance of same sex marriage during our generation
- to not be surprised whenever I see an asian in the entertainment industry
- More movie buddies, maybe a dvd burner..radness.
- http://books.google.com/books?id=zD7TBAAACAAJ&dq=inauthor:Barack+inauthor:Obama
- lifetime prescription to adderall
- to get stupid, dumb, and hyphy. sometime quick
- for sherwin to get rotations down in san diego
RECENT DISCOVERIES
- i love kevin smith and wes anderson
[I've just discovered the wonder of online shopping and purchsed an Evening with Kevin Smith 2 disc special for only $10!!! holy crap. This internet will seriously deplete my already negative bank account]
- country music is pretty rad, while i'm treading mainstream it makes me smile
- the now and then soundtrack dictates my life, especially the badfinger and free track
- according to an MBTI preference test brent made us take last board, i am an ENTP, which i feel is perfect
["Quick, ingenious, good at many things. Stimulating company, alert and outspoken. May argue for fun on either side of a question. Resourceful in solving new and challenging problems, but MAY NEGLECT ROUTINE ASSIGNMENTS. Apt to turn to one new interest after another. Skillful in finding logical reasons for what they want]
- I need to stop adding things to my plate.
[As of right now I have: VP of KP, Dorsee productions, hindsight studios, Asgaard branding, Arlie Ricasa Fundraiser, PCN Preview night for San diego..oh yea, and graduation hopefully]
- key to life is to live it on your own, and realize what you want instead of what you need. Living a life of vicariousness is horrible, giving in to every which fix, instead of clearing your head enough. You don't realize which activities are helping you discover as opposed to confusing your inner being.
- When it comes down to it, i love my major. My last two Econ classes (experimental, and behavioral economics) are basically what i'd want to research if I decide to go down that path. I think a lot of my animosity towards econ has been everybody else's apathy in the major, my reasoning being, why should I give a shit about this if nobody else does
[in addition, this capitalism essay i'm reading is making me think that our society was so wrong in choosing $$$ as the path to success. All the hierarchy and manipulation castes that a capitalist society creates are unnerving. I want to catch my food and explore the mountains damnit. I'm not communist right now, but i'm more of an adaptist]

PARTING WORDS
"Even from here, I can taste the question already on the tip of your tongue: isn't this utopian?
Well of course it is. You know what everyone's greatest fear is? It is that ll the dreams we have, all the crazy ideas and aspirations, all the impossible romantic longings and utopian visions CAN come true, that the world CAN grant our wishes. People spend their lives doing everything in their power to fend off that possibility: they beat themselves up with every kind of insecurity, sabotage their own efforts, undermine love affairs and cry sour grapes before the world even has a chance to defeat them..because no weight could be heavier to bear than the possibility that everything we want IS possible"
