Now's As Good A Time As Any

I think these guys are going to get a resume from me.

I think maybe I’ll go to Japan to become a gaijin tarento.

I thought James Brown would live forever. And why the $%# didn’t I go see him in Chicago when I had the chance???

I’m taking the GMAT for real on Friday. $250. Well, whatever.

I cannot imagine a perfect life for myself. I’m sure when I was a kid I could have imagined some kind of fantasy life that seemed attainable. Now I can come up with one of two situations: 1. logically impossible, or 2. the silver lining has a gray cloud.

Maybe I’m just more realistic and recognize that there are always tradeoffs. Or my imagination’s been killed off.

I think I may try to write poetry. My generation is messed up and somebody needs to express it.

GRIPE #1: INUYASHA SUCKS.

People on TV keep saying “‘08″ and I keep hearing “O-H!”

I think I need to shake things up in my life. Maybe I will start thinking about moving next summer. I’m in a rut. I do have money saved up. I need some direction, though. Maybe I should have stuck with my teaching English in China idea…that made me at least feel inspired and excited (though scared).

I actually heard recently that more kids in China are learning English early on in school, and that there are more jobs in Japan and South Korea.

What if we took all the money out of the public schools and put it into the public libraries, and create a “self-serve” system of education? I learned most of what I know from library books, not school textbooks.

Don’t make us play Michigan again! Darn it!!!
