Antics: Well Well

Something I really want to have in life is the ability to make people happy. The ability to be political. Right now I am too blunt, too forceful, and too overbearing. When I am not either of those I am shy and reserved. My father is the ultimate at this. For some reason down deep inside I feel this is impossible for me. I feel that if people don't like and accept me for who I am why should I have to bend over backwards, be someone I'm not to get something from them? In my current choice of profession, it would behoove me to play the political games to advance more quickly. I guess I kind of agree why that is the case, but I would rather be promoted by how well I worked rather than by what my bosses thought of my attitude.

I like to realize that I am not perfect and I like goals. I want to strive to become a better person, a better Christian, a better fiance, a better friend, and better worker. I don't want to become so dead-set in my ways that I am unable to better myself. I thank God for making me the way that I am and then giving me the tools to make something of myself.

So I finally got Fedora Linux loaded on my laptop! It was about time. Now I am about to spend the next couple hours trying to get wireless card to work. What's cool is I am actually updating this from Linux using Blog Entry Poster. Overall I'm fairly happy with the installation. It could have gone a bit smoother, but the cd-rom in my laptop is shot, so I'll take what I can get.

I actually wanted to re-install windows, but for some strange reason my cd-rom only reads DVDs, and those only half the time and not all the way through.
