ya know, family can be pretty cool
fun even
and i can tell i've grown, changed as a person.
i'm not afraid to be a smart ass now, and a witty one-i know just what to say! hehe. i used to be so shy, ya know...even (especially?) in front of family. and i found a new uniqueness in me-where did i get my sense of humor from, my uncle asks? he loves it-we bust on each other. he's more than i'd thought-i guess i never really gave a chance to get to know him. he's done spontaneous trips to cali and such-i want to go on a trip with him. perhaps...
my cousin nicky's grown a bit, too. he hasn't made any sexist comments! YAY! we have more fun now and i feel like he actually likes me now. he's 9.
a bunch of extended family came today for a lunch fiesta and it was pretty good times, chatting and such.
i'm actually enjoying it here now, for the most part. although mornings and evenings get a little lonely. at least i'm able to cry when i need to. and gooodness i watched 3 movies last night-A Walk to Remember (am reading the book as well), You've Got Mail (that I watched first when it was applicable to my life), and Something's Gotta Give (which I can so very much relate to her when she was heartbroken).
i was just called into nicky's room because he did well on minesweeper-i taught him how to play. and he's listening to kid's bop. i told him my mozart will grow on him one day-i used to not like it myself. he doesn't like to be calm now. haha.
the elders are listening to rod stewart.
