The first official week of summer has passed and I still don't have a job. After a recent debacle at a casino where I lost three hundred dollars playing texas hold'em (I'm really pretty good), I was hoping to start accumulating some income rather than just burning through it.
I'm not in total despair just yet, though. I just applied for a summer internship with the Louisiana Democratic Party and If I'm accepted it'll be a great opportunity to participate in the political process. I know there are a lot of people who are reading that last statement and thinking to themselves, "why would you to participate, voting is hard enough?" The crazy thing is... I really believe in the system (not every aspect of the system. We need more parties, the more democratic proportional representation, less influence from corporate interests, etc.). I don't know if I'll get the internship, but I hope I do.
Well... since this is my first blog post, I'll keep it brief and stop right there. Tomorrow I'll go over my thoughts on some of the new summer blockbusters (hint: McG won't be happy with my review of Terminator: Salvation, not that he would even be remotely aware of it. Let me rephrase that... McG fans won't like my Terminator: Salvation review.)
