What does it mean?

Now I'm left in a state of endless thought as usual. Y'know, everyone knows that people come in and leave out of ones lives constantly. It happens every day. Everyone has their purpose in our lives, weather it be brief or continuous. Naturally, many people (not all) eventually leave ones life because they have served they're purpose for us, and us for them. However, what does it mean......if a person that left ones life, pulls a Brett Favre. You thought they were gone, they said they were gone, but yet here they are again as if they never left. What does that MEAN!? Have that same person be called for a new purpose in ones life? Has their purpose in ones life not been fulfilled? Where they never even gone at all, just dormant in your life? Now I'm left in a state of endless thought..........as usual.

This is what I want to do, and I love it!

This quarter at school, I finally feel like I have the time to commit to a program called 'Game Wizards' at school. It's a game development program where students get to make they're own games. Last quarter I intended to do it, being that a much trusted and admired classmate of mines was going to be a Lead for his game. Unfortunately, all my outside commitments along with school were just to much to handle. But now that I have the chance, I'm goin to make the best of it.

This time around, I'm doing concept art and 3D modeling for weapons/props/buildings/ect. Those who may know, my goal is to do Character designing. Being that I haven't truly worked on a team in this sort of situation, this will be a great experience for me. Although I'm not doing EXACTLY what I want to do as far as a career, this is close enough. I just hope I can create work that will find a nice cozy home in my portfolio.

American Wonder

I'm sure, some Americans that realize that America isn't the only place on Earth sometimes wonder why majority of the world hates us. Well, given my current place of employment, I've been blessed with the chance to ask (mainly Australians, English, and New Zeland..ers) what they hate us (as a whole, not as an individual). Of course there's man answers, however, the most common one is politics.

Let's start it up with more recent stuff. Now, of course when Obama was elected, the worlds approval rating of America went up, drastically. And if you're wondering, they're image of us was ruined by Bush. But, never-the-less, they loved us when we voted us in. The world LOVES Obama. Every country around the world backs Obama to the fullest. Why do you think he's doing so good with Foreign Affairs? Now, here's why the world hates us......ready........we dislike Obama (as a whole, not individually). But why? The main reason is, all the people that said they had his back, all the people that said he was our savior, all the people that said they'd do everything in their power to help Obama succeed, all the people that said "for this country to work, we need to operate as ONE not multiple parties", all the people that agreed it was time for a change (and had the power to help) ALL TURNED THEIR BACKS ON HIM!!!!! In other words, it's because he's black. That's right, I just basically called our government (or at least people with power) racist. However, given that majority of people don't watch the news or follow politics, they don't realize that this is going on, in our faces. To them, all that's happening is that "change" isn't happening fast enough in a world that's so accustomed to instant gratification. So to us Americans (as a whole) he's failing in our eyes. Which isn't the case, he's doing all he can. Don't forget about all the problems he inherited. But instead of all this, our approval rating of him falls, instead of us going to the government and pleading for them to help Obama help us. Why is it that people in other countries realize this, yet people in his own country show him NO love!? I wish I knew.

Another reason why other countries hate us is......we voted in Bush....... twice.
So, basically, they all think we're idiot cowboys that think we know everything when we actually know nothing.
