This is the eve of my birthday. I'm about to become another year older.

Yipes.

Yes, it's about to happen. On February 12th, which may end up being the date of this web log, I will be another year older. And honestly, I'm not exactly sure I'm too happy about that.

I finished off my article for the Western Herald, and it should be printed in the next few days. I ended up doing an article on racism, and I figure it should get a few comments from people. Or like usual, it will be completely ignored like my articles normally are. I'm probably going to start posting my articles in this space soon, as soon as I start to figure out that these web logs are actually being seen by anyone. As it is right now, I think NO ONE is reading these things. And that kind of worries me. Then again, it's probably not that great a deal.

Spent a great deal of this day at school. While in my 4:00pm class, it started to snow, and it looks like it's going to get really cold and snow a lot again for awhile. I'll be honest. I'm not a real fan of cold weather, nor am I that much of a fan of snow. I pretty much hate it. If I could somehow manage to get back to California and know that I wouldn't be eating out of trashcans and living in some alley, I'd probably do it immediately. I sometimes wonder why I came here.

I guess coming here had a lot to do with Marisha and all that. I really had to get away from San Francisco, and when I found out that I could go all the way across the country to Kalamazoo, Michigan, I realized that was what I needed to do. But there are times when I wonder if that was really a good idea. Sure, I picked up my graduate degree here in political science, and I'm even closer to finishing off my doctorate, but I ask myself almost daily if this was the right place for me to have gone. My life would have been so much different if I would have taken University of the Pacific or Northridge, or one of those universities in California. Oh well, pretty hard to dwell on the past and still be able to be positive about the present and future.
