Hello my Blogger friends! Sorry, I've been extremely busy this past week getting my crap together. Turns out I'll be going home for a while. My mother has been very unwell, and the doc has ordered her to take it easy. Now, I know reading this right now you'd think this isn't a big deal, but seeing as I can't be very specific at this time, I can say with all honesty that it is. My sisters have been wonderful...they're helping to finance the big move to Ontario. This could be a great opportunity for me...I've been wanting to write, and maybe writing about and creating characters in my parent's hometown would become a great idea for a sitcom. Or I could just take cues from Casey the parott...he's a barrel of laughs. But mainly, I want to be close to my parents at this time. It's funny, eh...they're always worrying and looking out for us...growing up, they'd warn us about things like untrustworthy people and such and we never listen when we're young, cause we think we know all the answers. My mom once said "Friends make you laugh, but Family makes you cry." That's not in a bad way...what she means is that friends can be good, but some are only there for a good time...and when push comes to shove the untrue friends show their true colors. Family on the other hand, are always there for you. No matter how much you can't stand a sibling, or are upset with a parent, when you really need them they are there. And they make you cry because it's their opinions you value most in life...above your friends, your co-worker...the dude that lives down the street. You know. I don't know if I will make it back for convocation...quite frankly I can do without the cap and gown crap...just send my degree...I know my parents are proud of me. My sisters think that I'm making a huge sacrafice here. You see...right now I work in a restaurant and a store. My parents have a restaurant, and a flower shop. I would rather be with them working and helping them make ends meet, than stay here and worry that I can't make my rent, etc. Besides, they do need someone home right now. Dad can't keep up by himself. My sisters are working in their fields, and I'd like to take a little break that's all. Not giving up my aspirations...not by a long shot, but I do need to go home. I do plan on blogging as often as I can. I find that with the stress I've been under the past while this has been a great outlet.I will be checking out all my Blog pals pages, so please, keep in touch with me. Anyways...hmm I need a Blogger question...what has been the biggest sacrafice you'vemade in your life? If that's too personal...the second most? Let me know if you're out there in cyberspace stillchecking the Blog. Drop a line. See ya!
