If I could change...
...I probably wouldn't. Except I think I would like to be... what was I thinking ..... ummm... LESS FORGETFUL thats it! I would say more motivated but I think I would get more done if I actually remembered it.
However, lets say through some sort of crazy lottery I gain control of everything ever. Things I could change in politics would probably amount to three big things (the third is one of those sort of bullshit I wish for 100 wishes tricks- so watch out). First I would do this. People always shoot this down without reading how it really works or the big exclusion for low income. It can't happen now because big brother would have so much less leverage over people.
The second thing is on that note. Term limits for senators/congress. This unending re-election business adds to corruption and insider crap that we complain about all the time. Also its a lot easier to set aside personal concerns and do 3 senate terms rather than worry about keeping lobbyists so they can be a career senator.
3rd would be freaking reform of dumb stuff no one fixes. Immigrations ABSURD difficulty, make it easier- less illegals- more revenue on the books. Credit law, stupidly balanced against the consumer, fix that. Cyber law is really outdated, often if you steal something like a computer code or data- you didn't steal anything under the law since it can't be held. Lists go on and on.
Though really if I could change anything, it would be my situation. Its really demoralizing when 90% of your problems in life are:
A: Caused by others
B: Completely out of your control and
C: Only subject to change through luck.
D: All of the above.
I'm hoping to get married in July, though unless one of us can hold down a well paying full time job that is not happening. You may have heard even with a function degree she has like Math, times are grim. Also prescribing to at least a mostly strict Christian doctrine in regards to sex while being both a young male and in a steady relationship for over 4 years (editorial note: who decided this traditional gift echelon?) I am just a bit stir crazy if you get my drift *twitch*.
I think I would also change my school. UTC has certainly given me ample opportunity to work on my own. However, I still see that had I not worked at the TV studio I would be thoroughly unprepared for a workplace. I really don't mind the department but just call it the damned journalism department if you dont encourage creative work in the fields we talk about. Oh to have gone here straight outta highschool, how life might have been a rainbow- a crisp in focus one filmed from a dolly on HD cameras, alas.
