Listening to the French radio at the library...
First off --- a complaint: why do the KCLS libraries still lack Macromedia Flash player? You'd think that such a widely used program would exist on public-use computers. I guess I can't complain too much. It's nice that the computer wait time here at the 320th library has been drastically cut... which is a good thing.
I need to brush up on my French. The less I use it, the farther away from fluency I will be! Ahhh, those French people speak way too fast.
I want to go back to school. At least the academic workload will keep me somewhat busy in the "thrilling" town of Walla Walla. But I can't stand all the loud arguing that goes on at home. I've had to put up with annoying cousin last year (no, more like psycho madwoman) --- and now her son is one of the most spoiled kids I've ever seen. Whenever he doesn't get something... he yells, cries, throws fits, whatever and it's just not right! I don't give into that kind of behavior... my grandma, on the other hand, has very little patience (like my uncle) and succumbs to every one of his requests. I don't appreciate that and then my grandma accuses me of "being mad at her." It's like senior year of high school all over again! I really worry about my grandma... I feel alone right now... but I'll be even lonelier when she's gone.
All in all, I guess I'm pretty okay. I was in a better mood yesterday --- but I can't say that I'm completely depressed. For once, I'm okay being "girlfriend-less" ... I mean, I really have no reason to have one right now... I have no job, no car, and nothing that makes me "stand out"... Although I'm sure I'll still have bouts of unhappiness, I'll try to think about the bright side of things.
Not much else is new... I think I'll go take a walk now.
