Cultural Diversity 

I'm back. Sorry for missing the post yesterday. I'm sure none of you noticed. I just had a really busy day and just couldn't make this a priority. I tried...but some days people are more important. But anyway, just thought I would pop in here and do this real quick. I have a hand full of news and a couple of interesting things happened to me lately. Hummm...let's see...what are the most important things that I need to tell you all? How about this: I think that I am going to be a Reality Therapist. I know that sounds pretty odd to those of you who don't know what it means but I'll give you a quick overview. The theory basically holds that all people make decissions and that these choices determine their mood and their situation. On the surface this theory seems really mundane and obvious and maybe a little flawed. Well...it is a LITTLE flawed but I still like it, and since we're going to be expected to us integrated therapy in our actual practice it's really expected that you would pick a main theory and then build off of that with parts from other theories. I know it's really confusing but it's really exciting to me. It would seem that I have been using reality theory in my own life for a really long time. Then to find out that it's an actual theory and I didn't make it up like I thought I did was a real shocker and at the same time really invigorating. Anyway...boring Psych stuff...now on to personal drama!

I told my mother that I was moving out last night. The discussion that followed that announcement was the main reason why I didn't post yesterday. She's not very happy with me. She's kinda mad that I didn't want to move in with my sister but I kinda understand that. But she just doesn't understand that in the long run this is better for me. Anyway...she's still kinda miffed so I'm sure I 'll have to deal with that when I get home tonight. It's my dad's birthday today! He turns 54...so if you want to call him and wish him a happy birthday that would be cool and I'm sure he would appreciate it. Anyway...enough of this self-absorbed crap now it's time for the news! (Though some of it is old)

Bullets!
Ok...and now it's time for me to address some rumors that I have been circulating. Don't think I didn't notice them because I didn't put them in the news. As far as I'm concerned rumors are not news. But I will mention them here when I can. It would seem that when a SINGLE site posts that they heard that the Xbox Next is going to have 3 versions everyone thought it was news. I'm sorry. That wasn't a press release so I'm not going to put it in my news section nor am I going to post a link. You can find that information anywhere because everyone is all buzzing about it just like Microsoft wants. Just so you don't think I'm being hard on the Xbox there is also a rumor going around that Half-Life 2 and the Nintendo DS are both going to be released early. It's a rumor. There: I've perpetuated it. Does it really matter if either are released early? Not to me. I have a paper to write this weekend. Anyway...rumor mill out of business!

No games and no music. It was a sad day yesterday.
