I'm back
I went to myspace blog and loved it because most of my friends I still stay in contact with. But then my Mom joined and some of my cousins on my dad's side and I began censoring myself...a lot. So I'm back. And wow has livejournal changed. I didn't recognize anything at first. And I'll still post on myspace, but it'll be the general stuff, not the deep down stuff. Like tonight I'll post about the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh. What i won't post there is the fact that I hate borrowing money from my Mom because there's this weird gray area of paying her back. She knows that money is tight so I don't have to pay her back now or at all as she claims. And that'd be nice except if I borrowed money from a friend I would pay them back asap because that's who i am and I have certain values. And if I try to pay back my Mom she'll argue with me. And there's a certain aspect of me that is like, "She is your Mom, so you don't have to pay her back because you spent $1200 on a plane ticket to come see her." But I spent the $ on the plan ticket because I wanted to come here, so it's for me definitely. And I'll have most of the money but I've been borrowing more than i thought because of travel expenses to and from the Fringe and the fact that a £ equals $2.28 right now means I hav to pay double what she gives me. So if she gives me £30 like she did yesterday, that's $60 I owe her. A train ride is £8.80 for a round trip, which is over $17. It sounds crazy but then you have to think that they also get paid in £ so it works for them, but not for Americans visiting. So I think i'll pay her what i can without hurting myself when i get $ on the 10th and then pay the rest when the Hilberry pays me. Is that fair?
