I still here, holding my spot..

Yeah, it has been forever and a day since I've updated.. but I really haven't been able to get on as much as I used to. Not that it would help, I never updated when I was here. :P

Things are going well, I am a very happy folf.. very loved.. I have acomplished everything I set out to do when I returned home. I now have my GED as well as my driver's license. I also have a job, but that is a bit touchy.. they're really screwing me on hours so I've giving them another week before I start to look for another Job..

I really need to make money so I can make it to MFF this year, it's going to be a bit more special then usual and I will not miss it.. Also trying to save up to move out again.. I cannot really decide where to go, I'm thinking about going back to Michigan. I really loved it there, it feels like home to me more then this place I am now..

Also for future plans I wanna go back to school, I finally dicided on something to do.. I want to get my pre-engineering degree to start then go for a electronic and computer engineering degree. Most who know me personally know I have a huge hardware buff when it comes to computers, what better thing then to design it..

Now for something that kinda hit me today with a bit of a back story.. It's about my parents.. My mother has always been a strong woman, she's always done what had to be done for her and her children, no matter what was thrown at her.. she has to be one of the bravest persons I know and I love and respect her for that..

A few years ago she was diagnosed with a terminal desease called crohns, it's genetic and a big chance even I have it. It really took it's toll on her, but she is strong. She watches this show, I am sure everyone has heard, Xena. She didn't just watch it, she idolized and loved it. A huge fan, ownes every season and all that. Some might find it funny that another could idolize a fictional character but I understand. To my mom, Xena was hope to her, another strong woman, fighting to survive in the world through amazing stories..

Well now to the point, Lucy Lawless, the actress to played Xena has come to utah to sing in some forth of july thing. And of course my mom when crazy, she was soo happy to be able to see something like this. My stepdad when secretly behind her back to write a letter to them. He tried his hardest to get her to meet Lucy Lawless and she said yes. So my mom went today expecting to see her idol sing and instead ended up sitting face to face with her, talking. Lucy Lawless even asked for her phone number..

I can honestly say I have never heard my mother so happy in my life, she was almost in tears.. And that made me happy.. I finally realised something today because of all this.. Me and my stepdad.. we don't get along very well.. some might have even heard me say I hate him. But now I know I don't, I respect him.. looking at everything he has done, it is what he has thought was for the best.. maybe not for me but he has always looked out for what was best for my mother. He's even put himself under her, his parkinsons desease he has that has been such a huge burden on him, he's over come, no matter how hard it was, for her.. All he went through so this day ended like it has, opened my eyes to this. That man whould do anything for my mother and there is no one else that deserves her more then he does..

the end... this song always gets to me for some reason..
