    Today was the laziest Sunday ever!!  i woke up at 9:30 with Matt.  he left for work and i did my internet stuff listened to some this American life that I'm two weeks behind on.  i listened to "353: The Audacity of Government".  insane! all the bullshit this administration has done, not even the big stuff that makes the news but the little injustices.  everything seems like such a mess and I'm still not convinced that any of the candidates can make any changes for the better.  Anyways, then i went back to bed and didn't wake up until 3pm when Matt got home.  It was incredibly hot today, again, but i decided to cook us dinner.  I made Casamientos.  It's an El Salvadorian dish.  a pan fried mix of refried black beans and rice. it's fantastic.  i found this great website with some good recipes i think I'll try them.  http://www.whats4eats.com/4rec_elsalv.html

    I'm starting to feel panicked and frantic about not having a job lined up for after graduation.   it's a bit ambitious to expect that two weeks after commencement i'll start my first industry job, but i have always had high expectations for myself.  i know i have a 6 month grace period or whatever but that is of no comfort to me.  sorry, I'll stop whining now.  but i won't stop being agitated, so enjoy my take on the topic of the day.

This is such a tired subject.  of course we all want to be able to do something that no one else can do that would put you in this situation where you can be a savior of some sort and people will look up to you and need you and respect you.  Ladies (gents too), never date a guy (or gal) with a super hero obsession, it is a clear indication of impotency somewhere else in their life whether it's the inability to hold a decent job or move out of their parents house or their general lack self confidence.  Real superheros are ambitious and smart and fight to make a difference in their reality through the sweat of their brow and strength of their determination.  they don't sit around imagining how much better their life would be if they could fly or walk through walls or move things with their mind.  all of those things just make people look for the easy way out instead of actually trying to achieve something more than survival.
