You are everything that I live for.
Well, I've come to the conclusion today that I need to stop controlling my family. Thanks to friends here I realized I do need to voice my opinion and then leave it at that; if it changes it changes, if it doesn't well...I'm leaving in the fall anyways. The only thing I hate about this whole thing is my little sisters who have to live with this for a few years and more. I wish I could take them with me and protect them from this but I guess I went through it and survived so hopefully they can as well.
Anyways, my grad exit interview went amazingly. I was really blessed to have two teachers interviewing me who knew me and I respected. The interview itself turned into more of a conversation than anything; I have a knack for that. They gave me tons of compliments which I learned I must be able to accept; I hate compliments for that reason: I can't take them; I feel like I have to give them a compliment back which makes no sense. I should be able to accept compliments because when you give one you want the recipient to do just that: receive. So that's what I need to work on is accept compliments and not be so humble about EVERYTHING. Yes, you need to be humble but to the extent of feeling crummy about yourself? I say ney!
But I was able to let go of family issues today and the school day turned out to be another fantastical one. We went to visit Carol and Katey from the Immigrants Services who we'll be helping next week during our internship for Sociology. She seems like the type of lady who's tough and keeps to a schedule. Katey talked with us but was strict with the rules and such; she literally said 'now you can go' when she was done with us which I laugh at. lol
Besides all that, we're going to see a school drama production in Sociology tomorrow during class. I'm still hate-loving Kite Runner but I'm loving that I'm actually ahead in English with the individual novel study instead of falling behind.
Once again, thanks to those who made time to comment on my last entry. It meant alot to me to know that I can post my problems on here once in awhile and receive feedback and hugs. <3
