To sleep, a chance to dream, no more

Just got off a 15 hour shift. Have to be back at work in 9 hours. Very little money making occured. I'm that brand of tired where your body doesn't have any seratonin left to put you to sleep. I don't have much to write about, but that exemplifies something I think worth mentioning. The silencing of the proletariat through exhaustion. There will be no art created today. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I like seeing your posts. Great group of people, thanks for sharing

Long Weekend

I thought weekends were supposed to be relaxing! Due to the inclement weather, my job, and schoolwork, this weekend was anything but restful. I feel like I ran around like a chicken with it's head cut off. Whenever people become so busy going from task to task, I feel like their self gets lost in all the melee. I know that idol hands are the devil's play thing, but when people don't get a moment to themselves, they become like robots. They become just like a shell, carrying out tasks and responsibilities, without any reflection on what it is that they like to do. I know that work needs to get done, and I love to organize myself and not fall behind, but there has to be some sort of balance between laziness and overdrive. Just a thought.

So much work, So little time

Hi Everyone,
This is my first blog post ever! I figured it would about time to start since we need to complete 100 by the end of the semester, but the only thing on my mind right now is all the work I have to do. Its awesome that I dont have class untile 2:20pm but there are so many meetings, assignments, and events that I have to attend before class, then even more meetings after class. I enjoy the meetings and clubs, but it leaves little time to complete al the assignments from classes.
To keep this under vitalism vs. .materialism topic, I think computers, technologies, and all those gadgets are immensely helpful in keeping up with all this work. I receive emails directly to my phone the moment they are received, I can also send emails from my phone, check the internet, and do so many different types of homework through a laptop. I can't imagine how our parents parents did everything we do now back before technology was as big as it is now. Sure some people may say that technology takes away from quality time, but on the contrary, I think it creates more quality time. If I did not have my phone with its capabilities I would not be able to complete club assignments and emails through it and would lose spending time with my girlfriend. Well I should get back to other work now, I will be posting more pics for future blogs.

Night,
Alex Alvarez
