A whole new world

Friends and acquaintances:
Just a reminder about he curve balls that life will throw at you. If anyone had told me this semester would turn out the way it did I would have laughed in their faces because I had it ALL planned out. If anyone had said that Philosophy would be my hardest class I never would have belieleved them ,so to all my friends, who are students I ask you: Is it just me or do all of you also have no interest in any class that has nothing to do with you major?
There is also this little project I am working on it its entitled :
Planning my Future.
Ladies and gentlemen this is a self taught course which if you begin early you will encounter more help along the way that you could ever possibly imagine, and it is also alot of fun.
I recently told a friend of mine that one day I wanted to have a house in the Hampton's ( and of course I got laughed at). I dream of a lot of things a lot of them intellectual and a lot of them spiritual, however I must confess a lot of them are also material, and I am not ashamed to say it , because it is all those things that keep me going, they are what make me get up in the morning to go to my boring philosophy class, because I know that failing that one class could alter my perfectly laid out plans, it is those dreams that motivate me to organize my life and do the homework for my Planning my future class, it is those very same dreams that give me the power to be able to say no to things that matter a lot to me like going out with my friends when I have homework or just taking a weekend off and playing.
I urge you all to use things that you want or want to do later in life to to motivate yourself.
I end this with a quote
As the depth of a tree's roots determines the tree's height, the depth of one's experiences determines the height of one's success."Thembelani Vanqa, Isango Communications
Ponder this...
