SO...yesterday I spent the majority of mid-night looking back at remnants of my high school days...I was cleaning my room, which hadn't been touched since I left for college 4 years ago...I've been here for half a year already, but just never really got around to altering anything because I now realize I was apparently a little depressive...(maybe missing Austin, my friends and my own apartment?) so I think I didn't want to alter anything because then I would be accepting the fact that I really am HOME, and not in Austin anymore (Am I Dorothy?). hahaha...sad but true. The thing is that I chose to come home since I'm almost done...so I don't know why I am still thinking that I live in Austin, when it was me who made the conscious choice to come back afterall.
So for those of you who don't know me, here is a little bit on my life:
- I am a UT Austin senior, but I recently moved back home to Brownsville to finish my classes online (still from UT of course), in order to be closer to my family and to save money.
- I do plan on eventually moving out again...maybe in a year, when I'm out of CC debt?
- I really want to build a homeless shelter/soup-kitchen one day.
- I really want to go abroad to help disadvantaged children, I would love to join the Peace Corps. so I might do that in a year.
- I'm not really sure though because I also really want to move to LA or New York before I'm 25...and I will turn 23 in 2 months...so the clock is ticking.
- Whatever I decide to do though, I know that it will be a great experience for me and that I will be happy with it.
- For now though, I am finishing college in order to embark on the greater ship that is life, and I'm content.
- I wanted to be a lawyer for so long, and I still want to be one, but I am not going to rush into it right after college, like I had planned. I believe it is better for me to gain life experience and know that I really do want to pursue law, instead of going into it straight out of college and hating my life for three years, if it is the wrong choice for me at the time.
These past months I have had so much time to think, and I realize I am pretty mature for my age at times.
- I am mostly a happy person, I love smiling and helping others as much as I can.
- I hate drama, and try my hardest to avoid it...but of course it inevitably finds me.
- I try to deal with it from a diplomatic point of view, and try to see the larger picture of things.
- I disdain gossip, and instead love hearing actual facts.
- I can count my best friends with 2 hands, these people have been there for me through the hardest times, and some don't even know it.
- I have many friends though, and I really appreciate them and enjoy their company.
- I LOVE THE TWILIGHT SAGA (ok this is not mature, I KNOW, but it's true...it is too good!)
- I want the Bella's Birthday Cake for my b-day, with my name instead of hers though, of course, I'm not insane.
- Edward can come to my party if he'd like...I promise not to get any papercuts!!! :) (OK enough Twilight humor...for now)
- I am very talkative, but you might find that I am not really all that into talking too much about my personal life.
- I would much rather hear about you & your life & help you with any problem you might have, instead of focusing on me & mine.
- I think that is partly why I created this blog, so that I could vent about random things...and not care about what others think...I learned that the only opinions that really matter are yours and your family's...all the others are optional.
- I love finding great quotes that I can relate to and am in love with reading, I feel that it takes you to another dimension.
- I actually need to post a draft I saved about my favorite books...etc.
- I love traveling and would make a career out of it if I knew how to.
- I love expanding my life point of view, but sometimes I feel that the longer I stay in one place, the narrower my life-view seems to become again, and I'm back to the same endless circle.
- I need change, but need some more maturing to do before conquering the world, and I accept it.
- I hope to do that in the next year and throughout the rest of my life.
- I love my family and they are the most important thing to me, and I want to make them proud.
- I need to meticulously calculate my life path...as soon as I figure it out...or try to at least, and be happy.
MERRY CHRISTMAS and/or Happy Holidays everyone!!!
