subtle existence

terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.

Today was a horrible horrible day for me.  I am graduating this June and for the past couple months have been trying to decide what to do after school.  I finally started to put some plans together, and my parents decide they want to “give me some advice,” which really means we don’t like the decision you made and want you to do something else.  Don’t get me wrong, I understand that my parents are only trying to protect me and guide me.  Yet, their choices for my life are not what I want to do right now.  The hardest part about all of this is that I always try to take my parents advice and do what they tell me to because I want them to be happy with me. I am a people pleaser, I know this. So, it is a very big deal for me to go against their advice and do my own thing.  But, I have thought long and hard about this for months now and believe that my decision is good.  It is important that my parents support my decisions… but even if they don’t support this one, I’m still going to do it. It’s both liberating and terrifying at the same time.

spring break awesomeness

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything. But thats because I had an amazing spring break…and then my computer died on me (so I have to borrow my roommates for the time being). The quarter ended on a fairly good note. Unfortunately, I lowered my gpa a little, so that bummed me out. So, I’ll have to work my butt off to raise it back up again.

Half of spring break was spent up at school. I borrowed a friend’s room to sleep and did pretty much nothing besides sleep, watch TONS of Lost (I’m finally on season 2), and take trips to Napa. Uneventful, but I definitely needed to veg for a while.  Then, on Tuesday, Tim and I drove down to Anaheim at 6:45 am (right after he got off work). We got in by 2 pm and pretty much crashed.  On Wed, we spent the entire day at Disneyland & California Adventures. I wish I could write about how amazing it all was and how exciting the rides were and how much I just loooooove Disneyland, but that would take way too much time. We hit up pretty much every ride in one day, and by midnight our legs were really sore. Thursday, JohnO joined up with us, and we took it a little more leisurely, searching for hidden Mickeys, watching the Fantasmic show and one of the parades, and actually sitting for a while.  And, it was good. We left around 11ish, and drove over to John’s house to spend the night. And we also played Super Mario Party on his Wii, which is so sweet. I want one now. John made us breakfast, which was soooo good :) Then we took off to Malibu to see Brandon and grab some Thai food. We headed up the coast and got into SF on Saturday. Of course, we couldn’t pass up the city since we were already in the area, and ended up spending way too much money at American Apparel :) We got into Angwin around midnight and I crashed. But, this was probably the best spring break that I’ve ever had. I couldn’t ask for a better one… now I just need to work and make all that money back that I spent :p
