My Examined Life: The dreamer's fate
http://my-examined-life.blogspot.com/2008/09/dreamers-fate.html
Wednesday, September 10, 2008. The other day, I was browsing www.brainyquote.com, and I came upon this quote, spoken by fellow Daytonian Erma Bombeck: . Dreams have only one owner at a time. That's why dreamers are lonely.". Is this really true? Are all dreamers bound by their creativity and dreaming to a life of loneliness? And, if it's nearly impossible to bring someone with you into a dream, then, aren't you bound to be lonely? Writing from home. Brandon M Haskins. . Brandon M. Haskins.

Here are some shots I took: . The climbing wall m...

My Examined Life: Careers
http://my-examined-life.blogspot.com/2008/09/careers.html
Monday, September 8, 2008. For the past two years, I've considered, and taken at least one course in, at minimum FIVE degree programs. . Well, from the many conversations I've had and articles I've read—no. I know this from familial experience even. I have a cousin who went to three universities, studied four unrelated programs, incurring nearly $60,000 in UNNEEDED student loans, in her degree-quest. . Seriously, how's an 18-year-old to know what to do for the rest of his/her life? After talking to four ...

My Examined Life: Latin mottos
http://my-examined-life.blogspot.com/2008/09/latin-mottos.html
Thursday, September 4, 2008. As I researched a name for this blog, I came across a great Latin motto, "Ad praesens ova cras pullis sunt meliora." Roughly translated, it means "Eggs today are better than chickens tomorrow," which is another way of saying "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.". And looking for an easy target to w. It also reminds me of J. If only we were to grasp what we have before us, to quote another Latin phrase "Carpe diem," or "seize the day," we would find better use out of ...

My Examined Life: One's finances
http://my-examined-life.blogspot.com/2008/09/ones-finances.html
Sunday, September 7, 2008. It doesn't take a financial professional to understand how dreadful US financial markets are right now:. Equity indices, otherwise known as the stock market, (the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Nasdaq, the S&P 500, and the Russell 1000 among others), as of Friday, are down just over 20% off their October '07 highs, and just 2% over their July '08 lows, after our brief mid-July through August rally. . In this climate, what is an investor to do? While it was being rumored.
