The Start of Something New...

Today was the start of something very new for me. After classes were over I went to the Student Activities office and planned out probably the most time consuming activity I could possibly imagine. I decided that I would start my own new fraternity here at SMU. Everyone in my hall told me that it was a great idea and well I decided to just go for it. As of right now I only have my basic plan, which is to help get this chartered by another fraternity and to start getting the necessary funds and create a foundation for this all to start rolling.

My plan is to start a Business/ Engineering fraternity mainly open to those choosing that as their major. I know this is going to be a lot of work but right now I have a lot of support from different guys around me. Also, I know that if this does get started, we will need a place to live, so housing is another big concern of mine. I mean how do you feel though, think I'll actually do it?

To me this is an opportunity to show a new identity for students on this campus and to do something new. Go outside the realm of every other student here and be the founder of something new. I know it's going to be a lot of work, but hey, anything is possible right?

As for now I'm just setting up a few meetings and feeling my way through the beginning stages, wish me luck I guess and I will be sure to inform you of something new as soon as I find out myself

Big Names are Going to Get Big Competition

Look around you, how many people currently have their iphones or blackberries attached at their hips and how many of them are currently using them? See, its amazing how much of an impact new cell phone technology has had in society. And look how successful companies such as Macintosh and Blackberry have become from the innovation of their phones throughout the years. Unfortunately for them, they'll need to split the market into a third direction come September 23rd with the release of Googles new cell phone. They're basing the phone on the new Android type, which will make it accessible for everyone. Man this is going to be big....for some.

To me, a phone is merely a phone. Its used to call from one person to another, right? So why is everyone so attached to their iphones and in love with themselves on facebook that they need to either be on it with their laptop, or with their cell phone. Maybe I am wrong. Maybe this world does depend on us being on Facebook every other hour of every single day or else everything in this universe will melt (which i highly highly doubt). Things have been spiraling out of control in the technology market over the last 10 years, and now its google coming out with a phone that is supposedly able to have the touch-screen capabilities of the iphone, along with a flip out keyboard, while all using Googles network to run the internet. So in the end, all of this is getting quite ridiculous in my viewpoint. However, competition is competition and that's how our market survives. Wow I love this world and it's obsession with technology.
