... and We Keep Summer Dreaming....

Its begun to hit me, I'm leaving in 2 weeks. I'm permanantly leaving my childhood home, the place I grew up, the place where I first made memorable friendships, the place of all my memories. But most importantly, I'm leaving my friends, and who knows when i'll ever see them again. Heck it wud be a long time and it wouldn't even be that sad if i knew I was retunring in a year but I know im not, and i won't be for a while. I'll be leaving my family, through the anger and tears, I'll still always miss them no matter what, they're my fmaily after all.
2 months ago I couldn't have waited for summer to end, now I'm dreading the end. All I want, is to keep dreaming... and dreaming of smmer. |

The crazy crazy (but awesome) world

So I've stumbled upon a few really cool websites. One of them: www.stupidiotic.com has really cool shit. Ranging from Black Toilet Paper, Laser Scissors, Fake Security Cameras to a Aquarium Toilet Bowl Tank. Yea its kinda kooky, but really cool. Heres an image I found particularly funny on their site. Think about it......
















Anyway, so I've never really been aware all of these ingenious and really really cool new designs and products people keep coming up with. Add that to the mind boggling construction projects been done in Dubai. Man Made world islands? Indoor ski resort? World's tallest building? Yup thats Dubai for you (awesome place to visit some day). Heres just some images of what I'm talking about













Just a real estate on a Man made island..neat idea?










A neat kinda unique looking car. And when I say kinda, I mean... hell yea.
















This is a tower being built in Dubai that is able to change it's shape (yea you heard me). Every floor rotates individually around a central axis.















A semi-submerged house?














A satellite picture of Dubai, highlighting the crazy aspects of the city and how big they are on construction.













And finally my personal favorite.... a really innovating design for measuring drinks . haha I know what you guys are going to say...shhhh...

Ohio State Graces Sports Illustrated Once Again.

As hated as we are (jealousy often spawns criticism ;), we nevertheless have graced magazine covers and have made a big name for ourselves. Heres a look at all the really cool covers

Aren't you tired of these summer titles and themes?

Note: This is really just for my personal reference.

Cuz I sure am.... Yes yes summer is awesome, summer is relaxing, summer is the much wanted time to do the things we didnt have the time to do. But its sort of going into overkill right now. 2 long streched out months do not sit well with me, and knowing that I have to go through ANOTHER one...*gasp.

So basically, just like my last summer (of '06), I made a list of things that I wanted to do with my time-
1. Figure out what to do with summer
2. Learn about raising rabbits
yea, I had a rabbit phase where I wanted one for the upcoming year, but it turns out that they are very high maintenance (much like....*stare at ceiling). Also, turns out they're serial pooping machines (case of diarrhea?)
3. Play lots of video games
And boy have I been successful. From finishing Heroes V: TotE, to a brief Runescape affair and now to my 
neverending lust for Warcraft. I've returned to my childhood hobby that I love love love.
4. Find a Summer Job
Earn alittle bit of extra cash, forwarding my summer'09 europe cause. Turns out I'm occupationally undesired. Its illegal for me to work in Brunei (illegal screams uptight parents) and my little stint with Singaporean Biotech companies failed. As of now, I just hope I'll be employable when I return to ohio.
5. Become an Accountant, budget!
So 2007-8 wasn't excatly the most fiscally wonderful year. I managed to overspend by a thousand (yes a thousand) dollars. No thanks to online shopping and pub outings. So basically, I took the time to budget my future expenses, count my previous quarter expenditures. Lesson I learnt? I overspend on food.
6. Future my Europe Summer'09 Campaign
Im due for another trip to some exotic location (think Cambodia trip times 5- a realistic number as apposed to a million). So currently, Im planning Ireland, England, Belgium (possibly) and most importantly, The Netherlands (think Coffee Shops). Currently, this campaign is poorly funded (and when i say poorly funded, I mean, there isnt one) and it doesn't help that transatantic flights have crazily expensive (with the exception of Aerlingus which flies into Ireland for around $500 return). Hopefully, I'll hook some friends into going with me and I'll meet up with some friends in England.
7. Clean up iTunes library
Basically 5 hours of artwork addage and tag corrections.
8. Learn to Drive and Cook
I can drive now! No licence, but the ability to drive is always there now and I'm pretty excited about it. Possibly getting my Ohio-an licence this fall. My cooking ability isnt great, but at least I know I can fix something up when I need to.
9. Become more employable
Upgrade my CV, fill in more accomplishments (and at least I have some)
10. Love the tests
Considered the ACTs which I am no longer doing, however, the GRE is in my future at some point
11. Interior Decorate!
I compiled a list of Ikea (gotta love the Ikea) furniture that I will get when I move into my new place in September and planned out everything in my bedroom. Im going bold with the standing clothes rack instead of an actual dresser and Im going with this awesome desk with lots of compartments. Its going to be...awesme. (and expensive)

Passionless (Warning: Not a Cocktail Drink)

That pretty much sums out how I feel right now. A whole heaping bunch of non-passion. I began evaluating my interests after watching all these creative fashion designers talk about how they love doing what they do and are geuiniely striving to stay in the industry that they adore. As I go through my laundry list of past, present and potential future interests, Im basically crossing out more and more things that I no longer feel passionatly for or have a luke-warm desire for it. There was music, art, design, fashion, science, pyschology. The crazy thing is I go through the same process with every single one of them. I dwelve into it, I really enjoy it, I seek for more, Then I get slightly bored, then I lose complete interest. Yea, I have the passion-span of a not-very-passionate-goldfish. I mean, its nice to be knowledgable in them and enjoy them once in a while, but a life lnog career is asking too much out of me. It explains why Im flipfopping with majors and minors. Its crazy!

The only thing that I still love trhoughout the years is tennis, but that ship has sailed past, docked on a distant port and took a spaceship to some far far far planet. yea that means 
Ill most probably definitely not become aprofessional player. Tragic rite? 

It just gets me a little worried. What my future is to be. Am I going to be in a moderately satisfied job because i selected a major that i was interested in at that moment but lost passion for it when I graduated? Does this translate into potential love lives? I just really need to establish something that I really enjoy doing... maybe Animal theraphy is my thing.....
