Nate

Welcome to my first blog. I'm Nate and I have been a student at San Jose State longer than most students. My first semester was Fall 2001 at the tender age of 18. I lived in the old brick dorms where a brand new dorm complex now exists. I worked for Student Services for about two years. In 2003 I left San Jose State and traveled extensively for approximately two years. I didn't have the opportunity to travel overseas, but I managed to see most of California, Baja Mexico, Nevada, New York, Seattle, Alaska, and Utah. Much of my time on sabbatical was spent living with friends in San Diego. Additionally, I have to mention that I lived in Cupertino with my friend Jen, who was a devout follower of Rotten.com's Daily Rotten.
In 2006 I settled down and moved to San Mateo with my girlfriend Kathryn. That year I re-applied to San Jose State part-time as a Political Science major. This is my first semester back as a full-time student again. I have always enjoyed Politics and Philosophy (which is my minor). I'm one of those people who enjoy watching C-SPAN on a Friday night. In fact as I write this blog I am listening to two people squabble at each other during a Center for Immigration Studies press conference. I plan on having a lot of fun with this blog this semester. As this is my first time blogging, I will have much to say, so I hope I keep you interested.
