Things that go Thru my Head Week 5

  

Today i woke up feeling a little loss. I was confused but I knew where I was than out of nowhere whatever I ate on the night before just came back up. Yup I threw up everywhere, lets just say this Monday didn't start the way i wanted it to go. After a few hours I'm still feeling lost but i know what seems to be bothering me. Just thinking about how many things happen around us amazes my mind. I'm slowly starting to realize how complex everything really is. There are so many problems and different types of conflicts going on yet, all most no one seems to really care. I don't quiet understand why this bothers me to the point where i think about it on the daily bases.


I remember back in high school I was just a sophomore on my history class when I was assigned to write a paper about a current situation developing. Of course at the time the main subject at the time was how our military more specifically our special forces had just killed Osama Bin Laden. I would say almost everyone wrote their papers about that victory against terrorism I would say, but no me. I chose to write about the Middle East, Syria to be exact. At the time the Arab spring was at its pike, With revolutions in places such as Egypt, Libya & Syria. In Syria It's government decided to start putting demonstrations down at all cost by Arresting or killing its civilian population. At one point the Syrian people felt fed up and decided that they've had enough, things got so bad that now it was a full blown of civil war. After almost 5 years of fighting and more than 6.5 million people displaced within Syria and a toll of 210,060 with half of them being civilians, there seems to be no end to what started as a peaceful demonstration of a fed up population.


AT times I wish there was more I could do to help those in need but I know that one person can't change the whole world. As of right now all I can do for right now is observe how more conflicts develop and things take a turn for the worse far from home. I'm sure there are better or more concern things to worry about such as our economy our how my family is, but that's just me. Sometimes I feel like I'm different or that I think different than most people my age but I'm sure we all have our different concerns.

Horrible Experiences 

.

On this week's blog I will be talking about what I think were some past experiences that help me be who I am today and who I might turn out to be on the near future. I will be giving a different point of view of me I'm usually really quiet and rather keep everything to myself, but for once I'll be opening up. Some of the things that I'll be mentioning are past job experiences or just experiences such as, the lost of loved ones or leaving family members behind in search of a better future. Hopefully this gives everyone an insight of who I am, who I want to be and where my life is heading to.

There I was my first job in Boston. I was just 18 when i got my first full time job. It was as a food runner on the week days and a bar-backer on the weekends. The restaurant was really nice kinda too expensive to be honest, or maybe i just didn't have enough money and though it was expensive. I don't think i ever worked so hard in my life being a food runner wasn't too hard, but being a food runner on the weekend mornings and being a bar-backer after, until it was closing time was a little too much for me at the moment. I believed i was there for about 6 months which surprises me after remembering how exhausting it was, while I was there I realized how hard life actually gets if you don't prepare for it. I also realized that if I push myself hard enough i can achieve things i though were impossible for me, I learned how interact with smarter and older people. Besides all the hours and the times I didn't want to be there it was a great experience after all.

When I was 13 I had to make a pretty big decision. The decision was weather I wanted to stay in Colombia with my dad and try to continue my life without half of my family or move to the united states have a better future but still leave part of my family behind. At times I feel bad for leaving my family behind but I'm suppose to look after myself so i can better myself. Besides looking for a better future i knew education was a lot better in the States and that i would eventually find a job to earn some money but in the mean time my job was to better myself and learn the language to become a better person on this new beginning.


Another one of my job my job experiences takes place here in Boston, Logan airport to be more exact. I was a food prep-er and a meat cutter at a sandwich store in side the airport. Job wise it was pretty easy it was from early morning until early afternoon. What sucked about it was the manager. He would never be there the store was often missing employees and products, half of the time things weren't ready on time  and like i said before lack of management was a big factor for me to leave. I learned from this bad job experience that i can actually apply myself to do what i have to do when it has to be done. I also learned that you don't need to always be supervise to do a good job it all takes motivation and the will to do what you're suppose to be doing.

Inside in to my Mind

Im Bryan Alzate Im from Medellin Colombia Im 20 years old. I come from a Latin american back ground i do speak and read Spanish just as English. I come from a city where things were hard and complicated specially while i was growing up. I didn't always get what i wanted so now that im able to afford what i want i take more care of everything and look at things from a different perspective. Ever since a little kid i been into science and history I've always been thirsty for knowledge which some how explains why now i want to become an astronomer and tackle the biggest mysteries out there.

Besides science and history I enjoy drawing from time to time i like classical music from time to time. I love playing video games on a really competitive way I'm really competitive always trying to be the best at everything. Another of my passions is reading about current events and looking more deep into whats going on around us on the day to day bases. From time to time when I'm not at work or at school i enjoy expending time with my friends talking about sports also going out and spending some quality time with my girlfriend

 If i was to ask My friend/girlfriend about me she would describe me as this really weird/interesting (in a good way) but secretive character. She would talk about how most of my free time I'm usually on my phone or my laptop reading something different but new every single time its something different. She would also say how im always talking about something new that i learned while i was reading or that I'm always coming up with crazy ideas about how space works or how things could of been if something didnt happen. Shyanne would argue that I'm passionate about what i do and that once i put my head into something i don't take my mind away from it until I'm satisfy with it.
