My First Blog

I don't know much about politics or what is really going on in this world. In fact, this is the first political science class that I have ever taken at UCI. I started out going to UCI brainwashed by my Korean parents to become a great and rich doctor. I realized that after a year and half of looking at molecules and chromosomes that it really wasn't my thing. So I thought to myself, "what the hell, why not try a class that my parents know nothing about?". And Bada~boom i just decided to try political science out. The truth is i know nothing about politics. I don't even know which political party i belong to or whether the republicans have a elephant or a horse as their mascot. Their mascot could be a tiger and I wouldn't have blinked an eye(btw i know what mascot the republicans are because I looked it up). So if I was asked to write a blog about the NBA or even how to cook Korean food I know that this would be a a very simple task. But through this blogging I hope to achieve an understanding of how our government really works. I'll start off my first blog with some past historical events that had a great impact on me taking interest in politics.


I'm really hoping for the war in Iraq to end soon. Two of my friends are over there and I am worried about them everyday. But its funny, because they are on AIM all the time. And whenever I ask them what their up to, they always say, "nothing" and that they "dont do much". It seems that they clean their guns a lot but dont really use them...hmmm..quite interesting...And for the elections I truthfully don't even care. Because I know Hilary is not going to win, and the other guy i dont know anything about. O well, hopefully whoever is elected can lower the gas prices because my wallet is always empty after i fill up my tank. And 9/11, wow i remember exactly where i was when that happened. I woke up and my mom was calling my cousin in New York and she had a worried look on my face. When i asked her what happened she didnt tell me anything. I didnt find out about the crash until my 3rd period AP Europeon History class...and still i dont know all the details...
