Welcome to Life's A Beach. If you're here for some fascinating and ground breaking reading well I'm afraid you will probably be sorely disappointed. This a blog about my life just like many other blogs out there. It's more of diary for somebody who finds typing is easier than writing. I don't mind writing don't get me wrong I think it is becoming a skill that is taken for granted. People would rather post their lives on social media then right a letter to a friend. It's sad to see the world change so much in such a short amount of time. I mean in my short twenty years CD players were replaced with iPods, dial up was replaced with WiFi, and computers went from setting on the table to setting in your hand. Now I was not there for the big things like the first computer but things have really changed since my birth. It's really mind blowing to see the changes in just a few years.
Anyway away from that tangent anybody else going back to college around now? It's ridiculous what these schools get from us. I shouldn't be going to school for Business Management, I should be going to school to write a text book! I just spent $300 on two books. Really? $300? Then the teachers try to explain away the reason for having to buy a book that just came out "Oh well they changed one chapter and last years book is outdated". Well ok would you like to pay for my books? To some people that wouldn't be much or their books cost a great deal more but to me that is still a lot of money. I worked for that money and each year I see it dwindle away in books. I know its going towards college but I mean come on in some countries college is free! That is ridiculous. With the way this is going the only people going to college will be the wealthy and the lower part of society will be cleaning and doing the jobs that the rich will be to good for. Not the future I would like to live in.
Now I sound like a snooty college student that thinks they know everything. Let me be the first to admit I do not know everything. Not even close! I have lived one fourth of my life and I haven't even been out of the country! I would love to go to places like Ireland, Greece, Iceland, and Alaska. See the world as it is. Even in the United States there are some amazing places. Yellowstone National Park, Las Vegas, Colorado Rockies, and even just the simple things along the way. This world is wonderful and I can't wait to see it. Neither should you whoever you may be. Just because you aren't there now doesn't mean you can't get there someday. Or if you are already on the trip of a lifetime take it all in! You are one of the few that get to experience those kinds of places. It is an awesome gift to have the ability to go and do fun and exciting new things. So may people take their time for granted and say I'll get it later. I say go and get it now while you can. Don't wait for retirement when you are aged and tired from a life time of work. Take that vacation now. Save up and plan. Time is such a fleeting thing and you cant expect to be this age forever.
As you can see I am a very diverse person. I tend to go off on many tangents and I lose track of my thoughts but it helps to see words on a screen and think that maybe someone somewhere out there is reading the words that I posted here today. As for today I am done ranting but I would like to leave with a thought of the day. Don't waste time, because you don't know how much you have. You may expect an endless amount but it could end anytime. Don't take for granted the things that you have in your life but really take it all in. Life is short. Like my mom says Life's a Beach and then you die.
