SO much better

Well looks like all I needed yesterday was a good boo-hoo breakdown and I'm all better now :)

Went to class, went to work, talked to some friends, doing Spanish homework (doesn't sound like a big accomplishment but really, it is).

I am just happy. I am also excited to go home. And I'm grateful for my lovely roommates. Life is good, God is good, Canada is good, and so are my friends...

Goodnight and good luck :p

Frustration

I have been frustrated for 2 days.
Frustrated with my aunt, with my co-workers, with my roommate, with my best friend, with my mother, with my boyfriend and with my schoolwork.
Typically I don't feel this way! I am not an easily angered person! The end of school appears to be getting to me, however. I just want to go home and work and not have to stress about school or money or family drama. Obviously when I do get home I'll have a new pile of frustrations to worry about but in the meantime it just feels like being here is making them all much worse.

I'm attempting to maintain a cheerful attitude though so I guess tomorrow is a new day and I should leave all these frustrations behind when I wake up. Good call Zhen, good call...

Hoo boy

Ladies and Gentlemeisters we get to vote again!!!!
I'm excited to exercise my rights and do the votin thang but honestly, I am tired of all the political unrest. For crying out loud, couldn't they just work together and run the country? No. They had to act like petulant children and call an expensive election so they could see yet again who the country is going to vote for.
I feel like the voters were really left out of this one. Did they ask us if we wanted an election? No. I feel like they're up in their little echo chamber trying to see who bullies best.
But hey, that's just me!

Word of the Day

Punctilious - REALLY attentive to detail or punctilios.

Tumblr

I don't understand Tumblr. It looks all nice and shiny and everything but all the actual Tumblr blogs I've seen are just useless re-postings of something that someone else posted and you end up with 40 re-posters and no new content... That disinterests me so I think I'll stay here. Oh and these aren't interesting re-postings, they're like this.

Caring

Sometimes caring so much is frustrating. I love my friends and I don't want them to get hurt.
I am hearing "you're not my mom" a lot more lately than I did before... I wish I didn't sound like such a nag all the time but honestly, I care too much about you to just stand idly by while you screw yourself up over and over again!
I don't care if you call me your mother, a nag, a pain in the ass, self-righteous, over-stepping-my-bounds or anything else you can come up with. I am not going to stop loving you. I am not going to stop holding you accountable to the stupid, self-destructive decisions you sometimes make.
I don't think you're always dumb, otherwise I probably wouldn't be friends with you. But you are starting to make SILLY CHOICES and I am not going to let you off the hook. I'll be here when you get hurt or when you need to talk or need someone to pick you up.
I hope you'll feel the same way about me when I hit those stupid decisions kay?
