Nothing has no influence. As stated so blatantly eloquent by John Donne, no man is an island. We are the people around us. They shape and mold us, change us, move us.

Continue Reading...So today was my first day of work . It was pretty fun, I suppose. I felt like I was back in high school, when I was a TA for Mrs. Tomoyasu. I found it very interesting to do all the paperwork and learn about my job. I work in the finances department at the [...]
