It sucks man. You work super hard for something only for it to not be the way you planned. It would almost be better if my parents said that I couldn't go to gainesville. But to know that I have earned their trust enough that I can go by myself, but in the end can't really go because of scheduling conflicts, sucks. Booooooooo. I guess I'll see gaynessville a few months from now.
On the plus side my parents are going to buy my brother an XBOX 360. nuff said. Although I think if you look at all the purchases my parents have made for me and all that they've made for my brother, hermano wins astronomically. Ok not astronomically but significantly, and what's funny is that he's convinced I'm the favorite child. But whatever I'm gonna play with it too.
On the minus side (why don't people ever say "on the minus side" it's always "the plus side.") I still have not received any money from my job and the money in my pocket is dwindling. I've also come to the conclusion that I spend a good amount of my birthday money on other people. Cuz I get money for my birthday then I don't spend it, then other people's birthday's come and I spend it on that. I need a debit card.
My mother is graduating in december, which feels almost unreal. On the one hand I'm really happy I'll have my mom back. On the other hand...I'll have my mom back. Divided my parents are easier to break. But united I might find myself feeling claustrophobic again. Hopefully not, we'll see how that one turns out. But knowing that my mom will be making double what she was making 3 years ago is crazy.
And my parents called my brother and I "spoiled." What?!! I don't think we're spoiled. Just because we didn't grow up in Haiti getting our jollies from eating mangoes and playing in a river that doesn't make us spoiled. Then my mom tells me how she met a 10 year old boy working at a supermarket and how I didn't get anything that paid until I was 19 blahdeblahdiblah. And it's like, isn't that against child labor laws? What type of example is that?
But thinking about so you think you can dance makes me happy.
