It has been a long time since I've written a post for this blog. The main reason for my neglect is that I was working this past summer. Also, school has just started and I have a major exam coming up that needs extra attention.
It looks like things are changing on the horizon. Globalization and fair trade are becoming hotter issues. Global warming and alternative fuel sources are being talked about and researched more and more. There seems to be a new fight brewing between those who believe in capitalism and those who believe in a hybrid socialism-capitalism society. The Iraq war is being criticized more and more now that the congress is ruled by democrats. And let's not forget that the 2008 elections are right around the corner.
I've been struggling lately with languages. I've wanted to study languages for a long time and I've tried several, but I don't seem to keep the motivation for keeping them up. I think the major reason for this is that since I'm not travelling or actively involved in the communities that speak these languages, I cannot maintain what I have learned. I'm starting to realize that if I want to learn a language, I'm going to have to become more involved in the communities that speak the language.
Well, I have much work to do, so I must go for now. I hope to be back soon!
