Well my Orlando summer has ended ... kidna mixed feelings about that one!! I'll have to say though that being in Orlando has taught me a lot about myself. I feel like I've become a better person by living away from home for these past two years. Let me kinda explain... I've been FORCED to become a better person becasue I was around new people and in a new surrounding. These people had no idea how my personality was, and I was clueless as to how they were ... so I had no choice but to let strangers in. In some cases these ppl didnt turn out to be the type of ppl I like to associate with, but for the most part ... I have found some pretty amazing friends who I admire. I like to surround myself with good hearted people who care about others because thats how I always envision my life to be: all about others, but keeping myself still able and healthy in the process. I've always been pretty independent, but now I realize that sometimes I do need to be dependent on ppl for certain reasons.
SO anywho ... now I'm in Pcola!! :o) I started work and my class at PJC yesterday. I'm actually at work right now ... just finishing up my lunch break. I like being in a professional business atmosphere at work because it makes me feel like I have a "real" job. Kinda like I'm grown up, but I'm still the youngest one out here so I'm still the "kid" because I like NEVER want to grow up. It just gives me a different perspective on life. Sometimes adults never really mature .. which is sad ... but what can ya do? Sometimes I find myself to be more mature than some adults who like to flip out over something not going their way. I actually have to be the one calming them down and rationalizing that it really ISNT that big of a deal! STRANGE ... considering I'm only 20 and they are 40-50 yrs old!!
I'm gettin good quality family time now that I'm home. Its been a LONG time coming!! Sunday we went canoeing .. it was a blast!! We brought CORNBREAD!!! :o) I love that doggy so dang much .. I dont even know how I survive without him in Orlando. I am so close to getting a dog it aint even funny!! I need something to be responsible over when I'm in o*town!! The only thing that sucks is that our apartment doesnt allow pets. WHATEVER!!! I'm fixn to just get one anyway and bring it back down there with me!!! I might be gettin closer to talkin the folkds into gettin anotehr toy poodle though!! They BOTH want one, they just need my motivation to get them to actually go look for one!! haha
OK .. enoguh of that rage ... I could go on forver about that one! I'm gonna get back to work. Hope everyone is havin a good week!! :o)
