Times are a' changin
Right now I can be found in my dad's living room on the computer next to Irene on her laptop. My dad just came home and is rummaging through the fridge fixing himself a drink. The lights are dim because my dad insists on always having a clear light even though the sunlight is bright enough to maintain me.
I just felt something strange on my lip and it seems that I have a blister. ARG I hate those although it seems to be inherited because some of my cousins would constantly get them. Damn.
But now it makes sense, it does!! I have been sick with mad headaches and simple "malestar," and no one understood what was wrong with me... It all makes sense now.
This week has been stressful for me because I'm constantly making realizations about my life and people around me. My family had planned to go to Canada as part of a weekend trip that would allow us to get in touch with everyone in the Washington and Canada region that we hadn't seen in a while. Things didn't go as planned and I'm glad. Instead, we are spending more time with my dad than we had scheduled. Even thinking about the plans didn't make sense ("we're spending four days with my uncle and only a morning with my dad??"), but luckily things have changed.
Life has been all right except for the fact that Irene and I have opposite personalities and I have been struggling with the idea that our personalities are not meant to get along. I love my sister so much... I hate to think about this, but our personalities only cause us to make differing decisions, thus only reinforcing these personalities. How much more different is Japan and Colombia??
Now we are polar opposites and these initial days have been hard. Irene said that we have a lifetime to get along, but it feels like we won't. We're going to opposite sides of the country for college, and when will we truly spend time together?
On a lighter note, Sony gave me my yearbook the other day and I discovered an advertisement for me by my dad. So cute.
