"Why are you so mean?"

Hooray!

I have just received an official letter noting that am I now eligible for a professional education certificate.
The only thing now is to find employment, hahaha...

One more recommendation letter to go, too...

So tonight is Sheilah's graduation party and I'm excited. It's the second graduation party this week, haha.
These graduation parties as well as my own are why I'll be here for quite some while...

I've been keeping myself busy with my little projects, though I should try to edit and upload some photos.
I got to talk to one of my aunts in the UK, and hnnnng, Inigo answered the phone with his cute little British accent... Inigo is my 5-year-old cousin who's also a gangsta, hahah. Just wait. I'm not sure that he still remembers me but I know that I would just hug him to pieces. PIECES. But yeah, Tita Michelle said that she wanted to see our pictures from the Philippines (there are, what, literally 12 gigs worth?) so... I need to get on that. All I have is time, after all.

I've also spent a lot of time talking to my grandma in GA-- my foster-grandmother, if you will. She's pretty awesome and I haven't seen her in a few years. I need to go meet them, take pictures of all the wildlife that they've been feeding, and play some Parcheesi, fo' sho.

It's nice because we both get somewhat moody and need someone to talk to, and she can dispense her worldly wisdom. I admit though, whenever I will visit her I will have to make sure to be on my best behavior and respect her because she is very conservative and old-fashioned. Not necessarily "religious" or "fanatical" but just wants to make sure everyone has the chance to be saved. So...

Eric and Allysa have definitely gone forward with Lost-- I've been trying to make do with the slow internet here and Hulu. I enjoyed having them as Lost-watching-buddies-- it's nice to actually get to enjoy things with others for once. But now they're on s3 and I'm only on s2e15-- please, please, no one say anything. I'll smack you. Hah.

But ohh. Today my dad and I went out and he nearly squabbled with this one woman and I had to try and mediate (not as bad as it sounds, but still, I was trying to avoid this whole big thing between these two) and once again I was reminded how I'm like him. And that that's something I've been trying to change.

He wouldn't let it go. He just wants to fight. Why? That doesn't help anyone.
(Yes. I know).
He also points out everyone's flaws and asks me questions but answers for me in the most negative fashion, not even giving me a chance to viably answer.
(Yes, I know).

It's funny... It's like when I play RPGs (here is my geekery). I just always want to be the white mage, just whatever heals the party. And do some damage if I can. (HAY SEXY CATGIRL). But I know I cause more fights than stop them. And that needs to change.

I need to change.
