shine on you crazy diamonds....
so midterms time. and apartment hunt is almost over. we are goingto look at a house on thursday. it looks nice from the outside. im excited. i cant wait for friday.
tomorrow is valentines day. you know what that means? all black. same as every year, whether or not im single. i hate valentines day. people all expect to get stuff on valentines day. its not about spending time with the people you love or enjoy. its about the stuff. the same as every other holiday in america. christmas, easter, 4th of july, etc.... even thanksgiving. its all about being thankful....for the copious amounts of food.
i hate holidays. i dont care about the stuff (ok, i do, but not as much as i do getting to see people). for christmas this year, the best gift wasnt one i got. it was a compilation of pictures and videos my aunt and uncle, with the cooperation of my parents, gave my grandma a DVD of my (deceased) grandpa. she was so happy. she didnt know how to work the DVD player and i had to do it, and write her detialed directions on how to get to the correct input and how to get the DVD player to play again but seeing how happy (and sad) she was when she got to see grandpa made me more happy than any gift i have ever gotten. and she was so happy that i got to go up there to see her, becuase i generally cant go up with my family due to my being at college.
thats what holidays should be. not get stuff for someone. spend time with people that are important to you. and tell them.
i know, its corny, its overdone, its cliche but whatever. so be it
ps-i hate (americanized) holidays.
