Gossip Girl (hey, don't knock it till you try it), dinner, and painting my nails
My brother and his friend Benny came over and I tried a new recipe! Kung Pao chicken, fried rice, and plain steamed rice. I would have liked it to been spicier but I'm sure my stomach appreciated the mild spice. Check it out http://twitpic.com/2xvd0 Thanks mom & dad for the wok (:
On my way home from droppin off the boys I rented Marley & Me because I had a free rental and to be honest there was nothing else at the RedBox. I didn't think I'd like it but I ended up loving it and even crying at the end! I won't give specifics but I do reccomend it, especially as a date movie. It just got me thinking about my life and the direction, or lack there of, that it's going in. I also watched my 2nd favorite movie of all time, You've Got Mail but I can write a book about how my life and that movie intertwine. I'm at the stage in my life where nothing is really making sense, I'm holding on and hoping for the best. It's weird becaue I know I complain about this ridiculous rollercoaster my life is on right now and all the turns I've taken in just the past year, but this movie (believe it or not) has got me thinking that maybe this ride isn't so bad. I have the rest of my life to stand still and know exactly what my next move is, but for now I like waking up in the morning and the most difficult task on my to-do list is to try and get to the gym. I am accumulating an emmense amout of debt, I have no idea where I'm going to live next year, I don't know where I'll live/work the year after that, I'm working on a degree that I can only pray makes me happy with my work, and I hope I have enough money to pay tution this summer.
But I'm happy.
It's weird how this sappy love story got me thinking about all of this but you hear it time and time again "where did time go?"Strange. I'm listening to Idiosympathy and the lyric "getting older is not the same as growing up" was just sung, how perfectly put.
Getting back to the point, today I had my mini prac where I saw my classmate as a client and it felt so good walking out of the session knowing this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have the rest of my life to pay back the debt it's not going anywhere, I can enjoy moving another 5 more times because one day I'll live in a house for the rest of my life, I can figure out where I work/live when I find a place that makes me happiest, and tution can always be paid with more loans. I'm sure I'll have to go back to this post one day when I'm scrambling to get my life together but for now I've got my life & me.
Thanks for reading
