Inauguragtion of Barack Obama

01/22/09

Obama took an oath of office and became the 44th President of the United States of America. The Inauguration had the largest turnout of spectators since Reagan was sworn in. I was amazed at the number of people that faired the chilly weather to watch history being made. Obama spoke eloquently and encouraged us to take action to turn our economy around. Even though he messed up a little on the oath, Obama delivered a strong speech. Hopefully, he will accomplish his goals prove to America that they made the right choice.

My Future

01/14/09

My future is unknown. I had dreams of becoming a nurse and starting a family. Yet, now I have no idea what I would really like to do. Deciding a profession is a huge step and I would like to make the right one. However, I am scared that I will not make the choice that is correct for me. What if I decide to do something and then find out later it's not what I really wanted or saw for my future? Can I switch? Am I capable of even making that big of a life altering decision? So many questions, but all of them are unanswered. I agree, life is about taking chances, but it is also about having enough courage to take that first step towards that chance. Maybe I will find that courage and will-power to fullfil my goals towards my future. Unfortunately, life is a mystery and only time will tell.
