"Be the change you want to see in the world"

This is a space of self reflection and discovery where i intend to share my human experience and how i engage with the world. Also, this is a space to stay in touch with the people I care the most but everyone is welcome...and as my compadre very beautifully states, i am a small voice, but a voice- i am just one person, but alive and connected i am touching you right now i am touching you with my words hear my voice sing with me ~ Agustin "El Tin" Palacios

this is my last semester...really, i swear!!

After a much anticipated time i have finally tied up all my loose end and i'm going to finish my two majors and minor....Social Science, Sociology, and Philosophy. it only took me a couple of years more...a decade of my life...well more like six years...not including my backpacking trip through south america and my save my relationship semester break. Of course like always i don't regread anything..." what ever happened, happened and couldn't have happened any other way"...i like to think of my self as half realist and half romantic....so when it comes to school ever since high school i haven't been the sharpest tool in the shed ( i know it all relative, but when you hang out with over achiever then it's pretty obvious your on the slow lane) but don't let my laid back personally confuse you...i am a fighter and anything that i put my mind to i have done...i believe in my self...i have out done any of my expectations and im looking for new goals...its a beautiful time in my life. As far as being romantic, the more i think about it the more i see my self as a professor at a university...i might not have the raw talent but i have the will and passion for it. I have been thinking about this a lot lately, being to modest to admite to my selft that i can do it...but i don't see any way around it...i couldn't do any other job...vocation.

I'm just hoping it not going to take me 20 years to do it...some people might think. I'll just have to make believers out of them...actions speaks louder than words. I'm going straight through my master...tow years max and...well....with my Ph.D well lets shoot for three...sounds doable. Now i just got to figure out what i'm going to focus on...that's just a minor detail....
