My name is Thomas Weber and I can't think of a good, simple all encompassing noun to identify myself as. I am a lot of "things". I used to cook at a restaurant; wash dishes too, used to be a shitty high school student, but now I'm an okay college student; I used to be a business management student, but now I'm a political science major. Maybe those restaurant skills will help me out later in life. To catch me in this glimpse of time, to take a photo not in the past or the future, I'm at a crossroads. Hell, I'm even taking a self-proclaimed rigorous exercise course (gotta go from the field house to Bakeless in 15 minutes) and a 400 level history class. I am happy however, and I couldn't be more, to be caught up in a time when I am learning relates directly to the thing that pervades my mind more than it should: the 2016 presidential election. Maybe it's the time honored, universal college experience of being upset with the government; maybe you can call me a dissident.
