Three

It's almost the end of the week. I had planned out a schedule on Monday of things to do for the week. I haven't even done half of the stuff I planned. Procrastination is my hobby. Normally, I wouldn't blame the weather, but today I will. It was raining, it was windy, and it was muggy. I didn't do any homework, which I know is bad. Tomorrow I go home for Houston and it should be a good weekend. My mom is making tortillas de harina, fo sho :D

Two

I can be too trusting to strangers, and have no trust in real friends and family. I either come up short, or go too far. I'm still trying to find my balance. The first few days of class have passed, but I still haven't found my focus or routine yet. I need to get motivated again. I told myself I was going to let things go this year. I had been doing so, but I regressed. I think I have life figured out, but it will always slap me across the face with a reality check...and that's why I keep going. :] Keeps me on my toes

One for 2010

I really thought we were not going to end up like our parents. We were not going to let petty things get to us and ruin our bond. I actually believed (silly me) that we were mature enough to move on and leave the past behind. I believed as a family and mature young adults, we would discuss issues face to face. To my surprise I was completely wrong. I didn't think a new all time low could be set, but damn kid you sure did set one. I was furious. I can honestly say, never in my life have I been this upset and hurt. I was enraged and deeply hurt. I expected so much from you; I have helped you in every way I could.I pushed you to do better with yourself; I believed in you when others didn't. Que poco hombre eres. You did a wrong act towards someone I love. Yes, it is true, but it gave you no right to prove it the way you did. Now, I was ready to do some serious damage, but I'm not. I am not going to stoop down to that level. Unlike you, I was raised better. This issue is not between us, but you can't disrespect people in that manner. Perhaps one day I will forgive you. Not now, it's too soon in my opinion. I do not hate you, but you have disappointed me. If there is still any hope for us to ever talk again, it won't be the same. You're completely right, the apple does not fall far from the tree...because you are exactly like the person you hate the most...your father.

This year I'm glad some people showed their true selves. Now I know who to depend on and who to leave out of my life.
