This is so Undeveloped

I would like to point out that I think I am officially addicted to coffee. I mean, I have been in love with it for a few years now, but since I have started to associate calmness and reflection with coffee its just gotten out of control. I would like to thank George and Alexis for the coffee, grinder and the coffee maker because without these I would be making Folgers in a 4 cup machine as opposed to fresh ground Starbucks in a huge machine, not that I make a whole pot. So as my title states, I am taking a coffee break and listening to The Shins. I currently regretting and kicking myself for the lack of Shins listenage over the past year. I do not know why I basically stopped listening to them. It was not that I stopped liking them, but more like I forgot about them, wrote them off, whatever you would like to say. Could be that their popularity coincided with my short vacation of listenage. So to finish this section, I have rediscovered the wonderfulness of The Shins, YAY, George will be proud.

I also realized that for the moment I am sick of politics and current issues. I know this sounds like I'm becoming apathetic but actually just taking a vacation from it. It all started when people started to talk about Obama's political views on The War, illegal immigration, the economy, etc. in which I found myself becoming really annoyed. While most people will just say that its not hard to make me annoyed, this was different. I briefly became apathetic and wished that I couldn't vote anymore so I would not have to worry about these issues. Quickly I remembered the incredible burden placed upon me by my citizenship to take an active role in elections so I can help shape my vision for USA. So in short, I'm still a good American who will vote for the one I feel best embodies my political beliefs.

Classes are slow right now, I know that I'm shooting myself in the foot for bringing this up, since in a few days I'm going to be swamped. I do need to figure out my priorities for this school year 1) Get a Job 2) School, and not in the other order. While making good grades my last semester is good, I do need a direction for next year. I do not want to become a 30 year old who lives in his parents basement. (I would make my parents move to a house with a basement just for this purpose.)

To reiterate my point before about the Shins here is a quote from Jacob.
"I've never really sat down and listened to them.
I don't know why because they are amazing."
