Spring Break 2010

A week before spring break I was having a real hard time going to sleep and staying asleep. I had so many thoughts, mainly stuff I had to do. I knew had to get certain things done, but I didn't. And since I didn't do them, I stressed some more and slept less. I wanted to go home and see my family. I had missed them alot more than usual and I guess it's because I wanted to take a break from school. So I left Friday woo!

I can't remember what I did. I know I went to Jenna's house which was cool. I remember my aunt coming over a lot. My mom and her have been talking more which is good for my mom. Her family is dysfunctional and they disown each other every few months or years. Having at least one sibling around is enough for her to feel better. I slept a lot; except for last night. That is only because I was thinking of what I have to do when I get back to Austin. I went to the Muse concert which was insanely badass. :D I bought a shirt woot! I went to the movies to see Diary of a Wimpy Kid. My little cousin read the book and wanted to see it. Val told her she'd take her, so I tagged along. My other cousin Belinda tagged along too. I had a chance to talk to my cousin Lisa who served in the army; her son is beautiful. That kid is sure to break hearts lol. My spring break wouldn't be complete without the awesome drama family causes.

My uncle Robert is quite a character. I had talked to him during Winter break and I mentioned it would be nice to see my cousins. (His daughters and son who I haven't seen in forevaaaa) He told me yea, I'll give you a call.... Now a lot of bull crap happened between that conversation and now. Point is I didn't get to see my cousins because he can't grow a pair and visit.

Today was my last day at home and my aunt came over again. We were all eating and my dad began talking about his childhood. My dad is serious most of the time. When he jokes around or talks about times when he was genuinely happy it's awesome. His face lights up and I can see he really misses those days but is glad he grew up the way he did. He's told me about some hard times, but he always has more good times to talk about. If he had the chance to be born again, he would choose the same life, the same childhood. It was hard, but he says it made him the man he is today and wouldn't trade it for the world. I have said some harsh things about him, to his face at times. I regret that. He is the only person in my life that has never disappointed me. I've been mad at him, but he has never let me down. He has never done anything to make me think less of him.
