Heyheyhey! Lotsa stuff has been going on lately.... things have been SOOO crazy. I have signed up for a college class. Holy crap, a COLLEGE class. That means I'm gonna be GOING to college in the near future. I really should take advantage of the concurrent enrollment and take some more college-save the parentals some $$$-but I'm too lazy. So I'm just taking a computer class. I'm also taking AP English, which is supposed to be killer, so I'm not so slack-ish. Also, I'm gonna be seventeen in six days! That is also a crazy thing. Odd numbers always sound older than even numbers; sixteen sounds quite a bit younger than seventeen, fifteen more than fourteen... yeah. I started taking piano lessons from my madre... then kinda stopped cuz I got involved with other stuff; but I want to start taking lessons again.
On the subject of what I want to do with my life, I have no idea. I was thinking it would be great to be a massage therapist, cuz I was good at it. Then I decided I didn't want to give sweaty, greasy, hairy, fat men back rubs. Then came a physical therapist idea, but too much math involved. Then came personal trainer because I was having so much fun working out, but then I got lazy. Then came a cosmotologist thought because that would be something I would enjoy and I could do, but I just found out it is 10,000$ to get my degree, which I could get within the next couple years, but then I thought I'm not ready for that kind of committment (noon to five and Saturdays working on the degree). A couple weeks ago I thought, 'hey! Why not go into landscaping?' (I was doing some lawn planting, bark-laying, weed-pulling action at the moment), but then I thought, 'No, I'll get bad sunburned skin or suffer greasy sunscreen.' Housekeeper, clothes designer, teacher, photographer, librarian, writer/journalist, social worker, dental assistant... no. So, my ideas are all shot down by myself. I just don't want to grow up, but my thoughts have been literally CONSUMED with contemplation about my life in the next few years. I just can't imagine my life being much different than the way it is now. The worst part of college and early living-on-my-ownness? Being too poor to go shopping for clothes all the time! I am so materialistic when it comes to my fitted textiles. So I guess I'll get some of my shopping maddness out of my system now. More reason to go shopping this weekend, although I've already been twice this month.
I have also discovered some new and fantastic bands... Socialburn (not a new find, but fantastic!!!), Blue October (Wow.), Angels and Airwaves (a Blink 182-sounding band, but.... good. Not that I don't like Blink; they just sound all the same in their songs), and Nine
Black Alps (shivers). Check them out!!! Yay.
