Life, why do you hate me?
So, my brother is having his lap-band surgery on June 8. Isn't it just perfect that the one time I want to actually go out to a social function lands on the day right before? This film, a Deaf Entertainment documentary called See What I'm Saying, is coming to Silver Spring, MD for the Very Special Arts Festival. They're only going to be showing the movie that day -- it's the only chance I'll get to see it, and I've wanted to see it since before it was even released. But now I feel like a selfish assface for even wanting to go because of John's surgery. (The date of which was decided after I found out about the VSA screening.) I have no idea what to do. I want to see it, and it's something that I feel will be beneficial to my education as an ASL interpreter. It's not like it's on the same day, but still. My parents disapprove of my wanting to go at all. They think it's selfish. Is it? I don't know.
