Expatriate
Act
I have found myself in the midst of an incomprehensible
situation. Here I was under the impression that I was fortunate
enough to be living in the most advanced country in the world
in terms of scientific achievement, political systems, and
forward thought. Yesterday has utterly crushed this naive
impression. I now understand that all of this freedom of thought
and the right to the pursuit of happiness is a nice fairy
tale that we are all told as young children. Apparently our
land of equality yet again fails to uphold the ideals that
our forefathers put forth to pave the long and arduous path
to a truly great country. So rather than continuing my incredulous
babble that 51% of the American population evidently wouldn't
be able to comprehend anyways, I have a proposal to solve
the severe anguish and intense sadness that the intellectually
sound, rhetorically accepting portion of the population of
the USA finds itself under. I suggest a Brain Drain from this
evidently ignorant nation. This is a formal invitation to
all those of intellectual forethought and a common respect
for mankind and the world to join me in leaving the country.
I personally intend to spend the '05-'06 school year at the
University of St. Andrews in Scotland. A place of truly academic
thought might be good for me, and depending on whether the
residual administration continues on its outright attack of
freedom of choice, speech and liberty, I might just stay there.
So, I encourage you to join me in leaving the country in a
truly American statement of expatriatism.
And for other news: I have new pictures up from the awesome
Halloween party that Killa Joe hosted on Saturday night. So
incredibly amusing! I also am in the process of dropping that
advanced physics course that I was taking. Yeah, I can admit
it, I was painfully wrong about being able to take on that
much for one semester. I had an A, but honestly wouldn't be
able to maintain my grades in all my classes, and my sanity,
had I kept it. And a final note, in response to my brother's
query: yes I did have a date the other night, and it went
wonderfully. I actually will be continuing to date the facinating
young man, Luay, for an extended period of time. If you want
to hear more, then ask.
