Beached Whale

So I'm in North Carolina vacationing with my girlfriends family. Its excellent. Yesterday we spent loads of time at the beach and in the late evening we went to watch baby turtles creep out from the sand and head for a life at sea. They never creeped. Oh well theres time tonight or the next. For the last few days I've had a lot on my mind. Most notably public speaking and the ability to move people through words. I need to get better at it. So I'm studying speeches. People can be moved to swell like the sea simply at the command of a well articulated person. I admire that.

I read the hunger games. good book. bad ending. but what books have good endings these days. its like authors get lame in the last 15 pages of a book. so im reading "wheres God when it hurts" for the second time, and also reading through a psych text book to buff up on my basic psychology. I love vacation. and i have a hunger for learning and growth (in specific) that modern education simply provide me cheap enough. Oh well. Here I come local library!
