It really should have gone better than that.
Today is Friday the 13th, and my dad's birthday. So I called him and wished him a Happy Birthday.
And that was about it for friendly conversation. The next thirty minutes was about where I was staying this summer and what a mistake it would be to stay in Carbondale.
"But I am going to get more training," I said.
And then dad thinks I'm bullshitting him. He said that all I really want to do is "Have some freedom, party, and smoke dope."
Well, dad...you don't know me.
I didn't think I would get their approval.
This is a big step for me. I'm going to do something against their wishes. I shouldn't care, but I do.
It's hard for me to make a choice when I can hear my dad saying, "You're gonna mess up your career."
Am I doing the right thing? My heart tells me that I am, and yet my parents disagree.
The theater professors want us to go out there and get internships.
People are going to SETC, and I just turned that down.
What is going on with me? Argh.
I am listening to my heart...which is telling me to stay in Carbondale...but the outside world is saying no.
I wish there was a sign or something...am I..am I making the right choice?
What am I doing?
