    Default Why Am I in Houston?

    Read it in my blog on here. I've left a lot of you guys in the dark...I bet some of you didn't even know I was gone.

    Anyway...here it is.

    You know, I was listening tp Rob Wilson on 1380 WAOK and he was saying that the best thing you can do is make mistakes because no one is perfect. The whole point of making a mistake is to learn from your actions and correct them so as not to make as many bad decisions in the future. I don't know if you understand the logic I'm presenting but it made sense to me. You know what you did wrong. Now just take the time to learn from your actions so you can be the better person you were pursuing to be.

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    my brother got three f's and a c u later from tech. knocked up a chick joined the army went to war. came home got divorced went back to tech then to medical college of GA and is now a doctor making bank.

    now if you killed someone then you can ***** about ****ing up.

    Different circumstances, different situations, and different environments that different people have been raised in. I wasn't so much "bitching" as letting people know what's up...sure, some of it's pretty emotionally charged, but that's just my writing style.

    This is a big ****-up for me...I never saw this coming. There's no universally governing list of what qualifies as a "big mistake."

    Thanks for your story though.

    Houston Imports is a pain to sign up on, by the way.

    They don't allow common e-mail domains like yahoo/g-mail/etc...and when I put my school e-mail in, the validation mail was filtered out, so I try contacting some higher-ups via AIM, and I get no response.

    Annoying ****.

    I did really bad my first and second semesters here at tech, i've dug my self in a pretty ****ty hole, GPA wise. And that's when I realized what you did, I hate engineering. It wasn't near what I thought it was. I was using the mentality of "well I'm good at math and science, so engineering must be for me." I was wrong.

    I switched to the business school, and this semester has been great so far.

    So what are you thinking of switching to if you get back in?
