So my 21st birthday is coming up and I am so excited. I can’t wait to go out and have some fun! I have been working so hard. I feel bad because I have been working so hard on stuff that I have left some of my organizations hanging. I haven’t been as involved in the school of business nor development, but my classes, grad school prep, finding a place to live and the job search has been crazy.

Check this out though, cool thing I found for my office to use: http://meetordie.com/

I feel bad but at the same time, I know I have to prioritize my education before extracurricular activities. I am happy though, some of my job prospects are panning out, I can’t say which ones yet because I am unsure of which ones I am going to accept but regardless I am starting to become pleased 🙂

21 is a big number, I feel old. I feel like at 18-20 that is ok to mess up in life but once your solidly in your 20s that you shouldn’t be as all over the place as I am.

I have so much I want to and or can do. I want to start my own company, but work for a corporation…I want to be a marketer but a manager and work in human resources too. I want to kind of label myself as a life waffler. I just wander to whatever I like that minute. I suppose it is all productive in the end, but seems a bit crazy still.

Back to studying, my finance homework has way too many letters in it to be math, I will be up all night 🙂

Life + Finance = Crazy Graph

So in this time of political turmoil, health care and student loan approvals, you have to look at your own views.

I came to college as a conservative. It was shocking, especially since I grew up in such a conservative household. My family wasn’t Amish, but the point of the matter was I was never allowed to watch Rocko’s Modern Life. Now, for those of you born in the late 80s and early 90s, you will know what that is and the implications of me missing it 😉

So I came to college, I went to parties, I went to demonstrations, I studied abroad, I partied too hard, I lived a college life. I got into a crappy relationship, I met friends, I met people I didn’t like, and I met some that I will call friends for life. I got out of crappy relationships and learned the true meaning of life….I don’t know anything about life. So full circle from a conservative to a liberal of a sorts and back. Here I am, still wondering but thinking about trying a bit of moderation to try and solve some dilemmas.

Now after three years of college, I am no genius but I think the point of the matter is that whether your a democrat, republican, conservative, liberal or some kind of hippy in between. I just wish we would all try a little bit of both sides. So I declare myself a moderate for that reason.

I am a moderate on principal today 🙂

Be Ozzy

Some people need books, some people need chocolate, I need my camera.

It has been 2 months without my camera being fixed. I am at a loss. I can’t do anything without. My blogs are boring, my videos are not up, my interactive interview tapes are non existent.

Arrrgh, and no not like pirates, like I am a media less junkie.

I am waiting to here back from Enterprise, Target, Sherwin Williams, Enterprise and bunch of no name marketing companies that I applied to in Rochester.

I think I am going to have to have some inventive self marketing to score some points with these guys. Hopefully, I will get my baby back soon…..

Diaspora is the Oswego theme this year.

It means a lot of things to me but check out the official definition. I am a displaced Lithuanian and there are no other Lithuanians that I can find 🙁 However, but when I read about diaspora and I see others going through the same thing, it makes me feel better.

Today I wanted to share what diaspora is with you and maybe you can find someone from your culture 🙂

I am going to this poetry reading next week to learn a bit more about it. If you are American generally you can say at least some part of your family feels dispersed.

Actually, no such thing as killer ostriches but made you click!

It has been a great nine days since we have been back to oz. I got a new cool roommate, classes are rolling, and I have been super social.
It is weird when you come back to college your home life falls away so fast. You readapt and you love it so quickly that it feels like you have always been there. Independence is a unique feeling that I love to get used to.
I love it so much I am moving out of my house. As a junior, I really feel like I am coming into my own and I just can’t go back anymore. Home is now Oswego and it is too weird to have restrictions. It feels silly, just silly is the best way to describe it.
I will be leaving to live in the Roc (Downtown Rochester) for the rest of my summers now. I am super excited and have made some important financial decisions.
