▲ A New Era ▲

• That I would be studying Mechanical Engineering and taking advanced mathematics courses that are as confusing as the Japanese language.
• I would have the opportunity to have a radio show with some of my closest friends, and be on the VANGUARD of free speech. **Just might be one of the greatest feelings I have right now.
• Love might not be right for you.
• Alcohol isn’t as bad as all those books and TV infomercials would lead you to believe, you just have to be responsible about the things you do and the beverages you consume.
• While Hip-Hop/rap music tells tremendous and poetic tales of opulence, success, and social commentary, THERE ARE OTHER MUSIC GENRES OUT THERE!
• No matter what people tell you, be the most awesome person you can be!
• Take care of yourself.

Wish You Were Here,

20-year old Kris…

Cheers

Hello my fellow tumblrs, I figured I would share what my plans are over this summer now that I am free from the grips of formal academia until late August:

1. Pass road test and get driver’s license.
2. Actually learn how to play the guitar.
3. Lose weight, and maintain a healthier lifestyle.
4. Take up longboarding.
5. Get a car? Hopefully by the end of the summer.
6. Get a dual monitor setup for my MacBook Pro.
7. Get a record player and start a vinyl collection.
8. Read more, and learn a few topics for my upcoming semester.
9. Discover new music.
10. Become a more awesome human being.
11. Watch more movies.
12. Learn more Mathematics and Physics!
13. Save money.
14. Hang out with my friends back home.
15. Come up with more ideas for what to do with my summer…

Anything else you guys think I should do? Let me know!

Exam week, I can feel it getting closer and closer. The first string of exams didn’t turn out so well for me, but I know I can do A WHOLE LOT better than the first time around. With tons of hard work and some elbow grease I can ace all of my exams and effectively wreck the curve and class averages in all of my courses. Problem fellow engineering students?

I spent it inside doing homework and reviewing movies on Rotten Tomatoes.

Last night I watched a mini-documentary on Anime and its impact on the world. Growing up I have seen an incredibly prolific amount of anime, and watching this documentary sort of rejuvenated the happiness that I once had as a child and teenager (even though I’m 19, lol) of watching these animated masterpieces on television. I can now happily say that watching anime is probably one of those things that I may do until I die. Now, I’m going to go online shopping for copies of Akira, Ghost in the Shell, and Ninja Scroll…
