HOME

Yeah, I am at home right now. . . meaning my parents house the home of my childhood. I am pretty much house sitting and watching my mom's dog (her baby) because they went to Chicago for the weekend. My brother isn't really here busy with the band stuff and all. Its actually pretty boring. . .today I woke up and ran on the treadmill downstairs, showered, took my brother to meet the rest of his band members so they could take off. Then I went to town and got a vanilla latte at Starbucks, got my car washed and then back home to get the cleaning and a bill to send. Then I drove back and dropped off the cleaning, mailed the bill, and got lunch. Came back here walked the dog it is so nice outside today! Now I just finished typing a reaction paper for my assignment when I got tested for HIV/AIDS. Which by the way I won't know the results untill this coming Friday, so keep worring about me, NO not really. . . there is no doubt what the result will be!
Anyway, so I got here last night and saw what the house is looking like since the main floor's remodeling process is concluding. It still won't be ready for Thanksgiving though, I guess we'll be going to St. L (at least we will be with family). I had a heated discussion with my parents. Pretty much I told my mom she doesn't understand anything about my life right now. How does she know what its like to be graduating from college and how scary it is to have to find a job and feeling like you are too young? I pretty much said you are so far removed that you can't even remember your last year of college, she said she did which I have no doubt. But I am 22 and my relationship with my parents has definately improved since when I was lets say in eigth grade, freshman, sophomore in high school. But at the same time how mature am I if at 22, I am still practically yelling at my mom saying, "you don't understand me or my life!" Thats kind of convicting and shows how much stress this whole last year of college thing is causing on me! But then my mom and dad both looked at my resume which I e-mailed to them before I printed it off and they were like its great! Well the career fair was yesterday on campus, which was pretty much useless to me I think. But get this last night both my mom and dad were telling me that I need to change or take out some things on my resume, why couldn't they do that earlier?! I checked on socialservice.com and apparently my resume has been viewed once on there. I am not sure how great of a service that is but we'll see if that goes anywhere?
Other than that I am reading de amor y de sobra right now by Isabel Allende en espanol. I have to say I am doing pretty good with it. I am actually really into the story which I thought there is no way I am going to get it that well because its in Spanish. Maybe my Spanish is better than I thought, but I am still using my dictionary a lot for new words. Remind me next time to give you guys a book review in Spanish. . . so all of you will want to pick it up and read this interesting story!
Later.
