Time

Howdy all,
It is the last week of school. This semester is coming to a close and it seems that it has only just begun. Time sure has flown by. Time is the indefinite continued progress of existence and events that occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future. Brilliant minds of both the past and the future have wrestled with the concept of time. Time is such a confusing thing to me. When I have 20 minutes left in class it can seem like it takes two hours for the professor to release us but when I am haging out with friends I can be playing video games or watching sportscenter and the next thing you know I have wasted through a few hours. It is such a hard thing to gain a grasp of. My question is where has my time gone? It seems like just yesterday I was in high school and now hear I am finishing up  year 2 of my college career. It has been a blast so far, I have made some of the best friends in the world, I have taken some great classes and I have learned some great things. It is safe to say that I am pleased with my choice of Hardin-Simmons as well as with Pioneer. It is because of the people. The friends I have made and the sense of community that has been developed has made my time worth while. I have enjoyed my time here and I look foreward to continuing it next semester. The late Apple, CEO, Steve Jobs is quoted as saying,

"Your life is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."
I encourage you, make the most of your time. Enjoy life, make friends; be yourself.

Adios,
-JS
