Woke up at the crack of noon [and it was beautiful :)].
Went on a date with my daddy. Ate some Chinese food, and it was good.
Re-read a book that I hadn't read since middle school; it used to be one of my favorites.
Spent time with my best friend and my other friend, her boyfriend.
Watched the season finale of Glee. It made me sad, cause I'll have to wait for more episodes. :(
Was with my friend when she got some more info about Korea.
Found out I should get a call within the next couple of days about what school I will be at.
MY DAY= :)

The State of My Union
I've been giving some thought lately to the state of things in my life.
When I graduated in December, I thought that I would be in Korea by now. Now, obviously, that has not happened. I guess things just fall through sometimes. I find it severely disappointing, but I suppose I can wait for a few more months until I find something else.
Until then, I can concentrate on making as much money as I possibly can. Sounds good, right? I can start paying off my bills, and put the rest in the bank. Probably the best thing I could do for myself.
As for the state of my relationships with people, well, those are complicated.
Things with my parents are probably getting tense. I feel like I'm invading their space. Conflicts happen. The plan was to live here for just a few months. But what was maybe four months has turned to seven, and that was definitely not in my plans. I hate imposing on them, and I also need my own place and my freedom.
Friendships are good, although I don't see said friends very much. This needs to change. We need to make plans to hang out more often. Even going to get coffee every now and then would be a welcome change.
Now a biggie: guys. Yeah, there is nothing new OR old on that front, I'm afraid. Now, in some ways, this is good. That way I can concentrate on work. It also won't lead to any awkward or hard good-byes in the months to come. But UGH. Come on. Once in awhile, a girl needs at least a hug. Maybe a kiss or two as well. :)
So as a recap, nothing has really gone according to plan in the past few months. However, new opportunities come up every day. Just have to look on the bright side and keep a optimistic attitude.
Too bad I'm a pessimist.
Sigh.

All I Want for Christmas is a Nap
So, the holidays.....sigh. Am I the only one who would rather just spend the whole season curled up on the couch in front of a fire? The whole dealing with family thing is tiresome.
I know, I'm blessed to still have my family. Some people don't. However, family events are just way too demanding for me. I tend to drift toward a back room, or just anywhere I can be away.
Maybe if I spent most of each day napping, I could handle the holidays and their family-centric theme. I think that's the key to all of my life's problems. When someone annoys me or I can't handle something, it will be nap time. Sounds perfect.
