There is a short list of things I love that I
hope I never come to change my mind about. One of those is learning.
While I've wondered lately why I chose to stay in school, &
threaten to drop out frequently on the verge of a mental breakdown,
I find myself in moments of clarity remembering that I love to learn.
I have always been this way, & I hope things don't soon change.
The more I learn, the more I realize I have yet to learn.
While this overwhelms me at times, it mostly excites me,
& if I could, I would become an expert on an ever-growing list of topics
ranging from Nikola Tesla to minimalist movie directors & the inspirations
behind their films.
But unfortunately for me, I can't.
At least not while I'm in school. So until then, I get my fix
of trivia, fun facts, & new information from the brilliance of others
who do have the time [& the talent] to report on such things. Here
are a few of my favorite recent blog readings:
Nikola Tesla. You might not have heard of him, but chances
are you've heard of Thomas Edison. This will blow your mind.
I love all things Prodigal Magazine. This article on current perceptions
of sexuality is excellently done. After working as a campus director here in undergrad,
I have a special place in my heart for this topic, particularly as it relates to my generation.
Wes Anderson. I love the way this article was written almost
as much as I love Wes Anderson's films. [& that's saying a lot.]
