Throughout my life I have always meddled in new things. I love exploring the far reaches of set
boundaries, yet I enjoy the refined class of the civilized life as well. I don’t know what creates that split
character of mine, but I do know that it creates a unique personality. I can fit in with everyone, yet I don’t really
mind not fitting in either; it really depends on the occasion. Its really quite quaint, once you get to know
me, but to get to know me you have to make an effort, because heaven knows that
I can move through relationships like pacman in a maze.
As I begin this new school year, I think I finally have it
figured out. I know where I’m going, at
least where I want to go. I’ll get to
the schools, eventually. You see, I have
this coworker. He happens to be a
Mexican named Juan. Juan and I developed
this idea that stemmed from a desire to start teaching English to Spanish
speakers here in the States. We will
first start with some sit-down lessons, move to computer curriculum (kinda like
Rosetta Stone), establish English teaching schools outside of the U.S. and take
it from there.
One thing I miss - the philosophical curiosity that led me to investigate the truth. It's been a while since I've looked into something I didn't know. I think there is a dichotomy between thinking and doing. Before when I could think, I couldn't do so much. Now that I don't think so much, I'm doing alot more. I think school will put me in a more pensive mood, but I also need to do more now that I'm about to start a career. My ideas now seem less and less world-changing, but more and more practical. Whatever happens, I know there is one thing that I want to do - revolutionize education.
