In some form, language, dialect, or motion, all of us have participated in communication since the day we were born. It seems plausible to assume that communicating is an additional human sense and ability that evolves with the world around us. Increasingly however, this assumption is becoming outdated.

This week marks my fourth spring break as a college student, and I have a strong feeling that it is going to provide my most relaxing and rejuvenating break yet. Interesting thing is, I’m not on an island in warm weather drinking and having naked orgies, although that does sound most enjoyable.

Lately I have been struggling to cope with the idea of waiting. Partially a facet of reading The 4-hour work week by Timothy Ferris, and partially due to the fact that I should be graduating in the spring, (and I am not) playing the waiting game has become a daily struggle for me to accept.
