the forecast

Ever since "the storm" my parents have been acting differently.

Dad: He has been nice, understanding, and calm. He gets along with my mom and the dogs. Very strange in my house.

Mom: BIG CHANGE!!

I don't know what happened but I feel like she is renovating her life after all the damages the storm had caused. She is out every night with her friends, just gossiping and laughing. Taking dance classes and going to salsa clubs and getting dressed up with make-up and heels! Always smiling and understanding, not that she hasn't been in the past but know her mannerisms have changed. My mom is cleaning house of all the useless baggage she had stored. She is doing things to improve her situation and I am so proud of her for her new self-confidence and self-esteem. Mi amo mi madre mucho. I hope to have the same beauty she has when I am older. Although, I have learned from her mistakes that I will not fall into the same despair she once found herself in. There is still much to do about rebuilding the wreck but I know my mom will recover.

Parents can either make you crazy or keep you sane. My parents just keep me on my toes. I will never know what the weather might be the next day.

I'm SOOO SOO HAPPY because I'm most likely going to be studying in Budapest Spring 2010!

I thought all hope was lost last year when my dad had told me that he was not going to let me. This year though, I don't know what changed but he did not object to me studying abroad.

I'm ready for a culture shock. The only places I have been have either been in the US or in Canada. Canada doesn't even count. If Canada is considered to be a domestic flight according to the airports then I'm not going to count it as international in my book. I have always wanted to go to Europe and Budapest is the best place to go. I will be able to travel all over Europe and meet tons of new people. (hopefully cute people haha)

Now I just anticipating Spring semester!

Bon Voyage

the Adult life

GoodNews! The wicked witch is dead!

hehe

I finally quit Max's and let me tell you it is quit wonderful. Never do I have to work for people that I have to act fake towards. Never do I have to work in place that reminds me of my mother and how she was "laid off for economic reasons". No more bullshit basically.

Other great news is that my position as internship has turned into Executive Assistant. Awesome...right! My horoscope said not to make a fuss at work and look at what happened. I waited patiently and I got to leave the job I didn't want and get hired at the job I did want. Nice turnout!

Downside is I'm experiencing what it's like to work full time and have no life after work. Part of me wants to be a kid again but the other part is grateful that I have a job.
