Thought of the Day: If at first you don't succeed...Never give up!
I haven't seen nor have I talked to my younger (and only) brother Charlie in about 6 years. *tear* My dad is an @$$-O. He has tried and tried to keep us all apart but it isn't working. I am fighting back. I am not 7 years old anymore. I am nearing 21, I am a young woman now. No longer will I let his mistakes rule my life. It is my time to take charge...
So anyways...I've been calling my dad, Jose, for the longest time trying to get my brother's #. He always said he lost it or fed me some other lame excuse as to why he didn't have it. So I gave him this elaborate story on how I am doing this thesis paper for my Sociology class about intimate relationships and family, blah blah blah. And Voila! He miraculously found an old number he said probably won't work. What he doesn't know is that it DID! I talked with my "step-mom" for about 45 mins until my brother came home from snowboarding and then I talked to him for about the same amount of time. It was GREAT to hear his voice, he sounds the same; only minus his baby stutter and not so young. The way he words things or his pauses when he talks sound just like my younger sister Stephanie. They sound so smart when they talk. I feel she is the only person right now who can truely understand my dilemmas but soon I will be as comfortable with Charlie and possibly in a few years my youngest sister Angie. I know Jose is not a great father and a sorry excuse for a man but I do not want them to grow up hating him. Pity perhaps, for never trying harder to love us, but never hate. That will only make us as weak as he...

Thought of the Day: To be free or have eternal freedom, to choose life or choose the end it. The statements mean the same yet which do you prefer to hear?
I wonder if I spelled my stupid title correctly. Oh well, I don't feel like using my spell checker.
So, I was up all night finishing up an english paper that was due Sunday. I had already completed it but forgot to do my works cited and forgot I hadn't submitted it until last night. Then my computer went crazy and I had to retype my paper; so it was like 4 in the morning when I finally went to bed. Then I woke up at 6:45 with Michael, bc he stayed over, and I made him breakfast; cinnamon oatmeal and strawberry jelly toast. I stayed awake until about 7:30 when he left then laid down. I started dozing off about 8 ish, god knows why I was awake so long, then the next thing I remembered was my phone ringing. It was my ASL (american sign language) buddy Jennifer calling me to see if I was awake. This was about 9 and I was like um, kinda sorta but not really. So I we hung up and I went back to sleep. About 9:40 she calls back saying she'll be here in about 10 mins to get me. So jumped outta bed, sorta, and did the morning routine in 10 mins. We headed off to La Vista to attend an aerobic class they have there from 9:45-10:30. La Vista is a Retirement Community that has a great deaf population. I am going to start volunteering there so I can learn more sign language and faster. Anyhow, so I was dragging before we got there but the aerobic instructor was very nice and insisted that we participate. I was glad Jennifer dragged me along. I had fun and signed more than I thought I would. I woke up after that. Now I'm home and tired again. I'll prolly nap when I finish here...

Thought of the Day: I put forth my best "effort", now shoot me.
David has sorta convinced me to start up a blog though I don't really know how. He didn't say much to me.
Anyhow, I figure I can kill two frogs with one car by starting up this blog to please David and also to keep a semi-regular journal I could use for my English 1301 course.
Blah Blah Blah, I'll finish this later. I've been having problems with my computer and sometimes my crap isn't submitted. I hope this goes through...
