Moral Boost
Woot, what a day! Ok, so I went to sleep around 3 last night, not what I was shooting for, but it was the blog’s fault. I woke up at noon (almost on the dot) and called tyson, and we talked about really random things including me comming out of a cake at his bachelor party, but I would sufficate in the cake and my stripper name would be cocoa... I'm not good at setting up jokes, but we were laughing about it forever.
After that, I decided to give my... uncle (he shares a grandmother with my father's mother, but he seems to be closest to my mother) a call and somehow I ended up at his house in Harper's Ferry an hour later. On the way there, I noticed two things: that it's very hard for me to drive at one speed, I tend to fluctuate a lot, and that I'm a very competitive driver: I was going 60 on a 65mph road, and 3 guys pass me, so I let them ahead of me, but as soon as they are settle, I sped up and passed all three of them, and the first guy sped up to pass me again and we both started laughing... (on the way back, a car was trying to pass me, so I sped up so it could change lanes back, until I realized it was a cop! luckily, it sweemed like he was just going home or something and was speeding too, so I didn't get stopped or anything) but yeah, I'm at my uncles, it's 2:30 and I realise I haven't even had breakfast yet, so we go to a cute little restaurant and I had a fried shrimp sandwhich that was diliciouse and a brownie icecream thing that was good too, and then he takes me on a driving tour of Harper's Ferry. The strange thing was, that he kept asking about Marion and when he talked to an aquantence, he mentioned I was staying at my "girlfriend's"... I know russians tend to use the term liberally, but I was starting to wander how much he knew. (continued further down) We spent the rest of the day being lazy at his house, talking about my college plans and random things about life. I mentioned that I was thinking about going to Berkley's (after talking about california colleges with aiden) and studying architecture, and Victor (my uncle) really liked the idea because San Fransisco is something like his favorite city in the US and architecture would be a maluable major, so I'm starting to like it too, again... We also entertained the dog, since it was her house, after all :P . Anyway, the entire event made me feel much better about picking a college and going there and paying for it because here's someone in my own family who's doing very well and believes in my ability to do anything I put my head to. I also really want to go to Europe now, Victor said I should even live there for a while, so I know what to save up for next year, you know, besides COLLEGE... oh, I'm going to die, but I'm happy in the meanwhile ^_^. Now, to be a teen while I still can.
So yeah, going home, I did not get lost at all! yey, maryland roads are starting to make sense! I get home, and i find out the new bed mar got didn't fit up the staires, and the last one was trashed in the anticipation, and the matresses have no where to go, so I have no idea where I'm going to sleep, I hope I eventually pass out in front of the computer and don't have to think about it -_-'
Okay, I come home, and claudia tells me that mom wants me to call her right away, and mom said that 1. the check from work got sent home (like I asked them not to) and 2) uncle read yesterday's post and mom didn't like me mentioning her (I had to delete a portion on livejournal) and it was all very funny to me because I had no idea anyone but my dad payed much attention, and he's in russia right now, so I thought it wouldn't be a big deal, but everyone who knows my mom, I don't mind if she finds out what I right here because I would tell her anyway, but we hardly ever talk about my life and personal thoughts, so it never really comes up. I have no issues against anyone I know personaly finding out anything I'm willing to say to anyone else I know personally, when it comes to work or school, I don't want my reputation hurt by things that shouldn't matter, but I choose my friends and I choose which family I associate with, so I don't mind if anyone of you discuss anything I say to anyone else, alright?
PS: I say it aloud a lot, but I think my mom is awsome. Sometimes her judgement is a little weird (like the whole moving to utah thing), but she allways has good reasons and it's pretty much the smartest person I've met, and she's just awsome, ok? I think I've told this to her face, but everyone else should know too. I might badmouth her once in a while, but in the end, she rules.
