Changing Tides, Planning for Summer

March has been one of 'those' months, where you have a lot going on and then there are family related emergencies back home. It is difficult to say the least when, as much as I want to fly back home from California, I am unable to since my grade would fall so much it would hurt my future in this career field. There has been some challenges this month, with one of my grandparents going into the hospital for a month and is currently back there again, I really hope they get better. Add the fact that the cars I am chasing, I am going one weekend next month to get it ready to be shipped to a storage locale until this summer. I am also speaking to someone else in acquiring several more classic cars this summer and early fall. However due to my present circumstances when I get home I lack the space to store them all, but I have found land for sale which hopefully I can finance when I get home.
Yes I have a lot going on, but I know what I want and need to get done. There is only 2 months 21 days left of my program and then I am going to be home which is going to be very nice. Somedays I kinda wish, I wonder, how things would have been different if I had gone to the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding. Maybe I would have had a yacht by now or maybe I would have saved enough to build a wooden sailboat when I got home. It would have definitely been different. Then there is the other option; going to Pacific Design Academy.... I would have become a building technologist which would have been cool. The only downside of that route would be the amount of stress the CADD career would be putting on me.

Really, a lot of things could have gone differently or stayed the same but in the end I feel think I am going down the right path. All I need to follow through with what I want to do when I get home and then, I'll take it from there, since once those goals are achieved it is time to aim higher and keep on progressing.

Twists n' Turns

How come every thing is great, life really is not. Regardless from past experience or what is going on today there always seems to be something, someone or some how that takes you off the smooth path onto the gravel road. Sure a life without challenges, turmoil and worries would be ideal but each time we try and approach it we get repelled away. Then of course there is the opposite side, where you go from one rut to another, where I have been myself. How can one get past the bad, how can one help influence their life and the world around them? It may sound off topic but in order to over come those challenges I have learn to look within before looking out what has to be done. But then again it is just me, it might be different for everyone else. As nice as it would be to live a care-free life that would be like wishing for the world to change and doing nothing. It aint going to happen! What you seek you have to create.
The last few months for me have shown me a lot and proven me that the current path I am is where I am suppose to be. Sure there are few things and people missing from my life, but they will come in time. But this is just my side of the coin, and each person has their own way of attracting either more turmoil or bliss depending on their actions.

One thing that I do not understand, yet, is why do some people force their morales on others. It is hard to change people's thinking and by forcing them on someone else by rudely joking about what they want to do or cussing and name calling... really come on! All you are doing is proving the world how immature heartless of a person you are. Considering the way everything is going I would advise not putting yourself in that type of situation. Since, unless you are that type that cannot change, all you are doing is digging and digging a bigger pit that you are going to eventually fall in yourself.
