Time Flies

I can not believe that this semester is almost over. I am about to be a sophomore in college, and it feels like I just started my freshman year two weeks ago. This first year of college I have learned that just doing your work is not good enough. All throughout high school I did the minimum and got by with A's. College is a whole different stories especially being in the nursing program. I am excited for this semester to be over, and I think I learned a lot and overall grew as a student academically because I learned that i always need to put my best foot forward, and stop procrastinating. I am ready for finals and finally summer. This first year really has flew by.
   I am very excited for what next semester brings.

Updating Knowledge

So I did some research regarding my last post, and researched a little about the Syrian war. The article I read was on bbc.com called Why is There a War in Syria? According to this website the civil war started 6 years as a peaceful protest against Syria's president Bashar-al Assad. They were protesting against the high unemployment rate, lack if political freedom and just along together corruption. Basically Assad used excessive force against protectors and its been all hell from there.

      I know in my last blog post, I said something needed to done, but I don't know how I feel about the United States ultimately getting involved. I justice Trumps decision in the air strike as maybe trying to help people like those innocent children, but also I don't want to go to war. In my opinion what he did was an act in war, and of course something is going to be done back. Maybe he could of done something more peaceful?  I don't know, but I just wish we lived in perfect world where everyone just got along. In my dreams right?

What Has The World come to?

The war going on with Syria right now is honestly so brutal it saddens me every time I see something news about it. I going to be honest, and I know I sound ignorant, but I do not even know who is at War with Syria, or how it started. I know it has been going on for a while, and thousands of innocent civilians have been getting killed because of it. I understand War is violent, but I think it needs to come to a stop when so many innocent people are dying. It almost reminds me of the Vietnam war. All our men were dying, and killing so many innocent people. Even if the Syrian war doesn't involve the USA it needs to stop. I am usually not the type of person to keep up with wars, but this war has been all over the news.
Yesterday their was a chemical attack in Syria. It has harmed many people, and from what i read thus far killed 11 children. When is it to far? What is the point of killing all these incident people, especially with a odorless, tasteless chemical. Chemical warfare really scares me, and I just pray for these people and their families, and hopefully it will come to an end soon.
