Ending Four Well
School has been going well in this breezy and atypical semester. I say atypical because I no longer feel like an undergraduate, I’ve happily passed that stage of stressing over courses and trivial, yet developmental things that we all go through during that experience. Which, is surely a good thing in this case.
I feel like I’ve learned many life skills that will help enhance the journey. I’ve also decided on a lot of things that I don’t want – such as an 8-5 job. Sometimes figuring out what you don’t want is far more important than finding your dream or calling at the age of young-twenties. A short-lived era in one’s life where opportunity often supersedes circumstances or fear. What a wonderful thing.
Fire dynamics, lecturing, and computational science are certainly for me. Now I just have to work on imparting that wisdom to others for the rest of my life and gain more insight by way of seeing more nature, living out diverse experiences, learning from and being with friends and strangers, and the other fantastic daily activities that we forget make up “life”.

Your photo makes me want to canoe the streets of Houston. Isn’t that a fine thought?
I agree with the importance of finding what you don’t want. Sometimes it takes experiencing a world of things wrong for you to find a little fragment of life you enjoy. Sadly, it usually incurs taking out loans for school! ¡Aye dios mio!
