How are the civilities and compliments of every day to be related as they ought to be, unless noted down in every evening in a journal? How are your various dresses to be remembered and the particular state of your complexion, and the curl of your hair to be described in all their diversities, without having constant recourse to a journal? -Jane Austen
Interests:Marching band, Tau Beta Sigma, a good book... Expertise:Well, I DEFINITLY wouldn't call myself an expert, but the closest thing I can get to being halfway decent at is marching considering I've been doing it for 8 years. Yep, I play horn in the pride of arizona. I also play clarinet but no longer march it. My major's public management and policy, but I wouldn't exactly call myself an expert in all things public administration-ish. Quite the contrary actually. In fact, I'm not exactly sure what exactly I'm suppose to be doing in my major...

My youtube political videos have been becoming more and more popular. When Citizentube, Youtube's politics editor, interviewed John McCain this week, he chose to ask him the question that I had posed in my video. Essentially, my question was about the extent of government power over the individual. McCain had a fantastic response! He answers my question around the 2:30 mark.
It's official, I've signed a lease in Sierra Vista. It's a human
resources position with the US Army. I'll spend the first year at Fort
Huachucca, then get transfered somewhere else and possibly overseas.
I'm going to be making the move on May 23ish. Unfortunately, this means
I'm going to miss all you Tucsonians since finals will of ended a week
before and you all probably will be back at your respective
family-homes. I'm a little nervous about Sierra Vista. It makes Tucson
look like Beverly Hills with all the trailer parks around. I couldn't
find any restaurants when I was there, but there has to be some other
than fast food. The mall has a Dillards, Sears, Victoria's Secret,
Radioshack and Hot Topic. That's about it. Where am I suppose to go
clothes shopping?
Also, there aren't any Starbucks. Seriously.
I looked it up on the internet. The only place to get starbucks is at
the Target or the Safeway. There are no standalone Starbucks. How is
that even possible??? How am I going to get through a year??
At least I'm going to be close enough to visit Tucson a bunch.
I made a video asking Kucinich his ideas to improve the education system in the US. He actually answered me! Wow..he may be kind of funny looking, but he is so cool!
Supposedly on CNN's The Situation Room today they did a bit on candidates on YouTube. Supposedly they used my picture when talking about people making video answers for the candidates. Did anyone see it? Wolf Blitzer is so awesome!
Last week I made a video for Mitt Romney. This week I've done one for John Edwards. His question was "What are you going to do to change the world?" Honestly, it's a pretty lame question, but I figured I'd answer anyways. I also decided to ask him a question on the off chance that he actually watches these videos and may respond.
