F*** it, I feel great

Remembering some recent family conversations

I’ve learned that it is very difficult to explain what an English major is to some of my family members. I just say that it’s like analyzing literature, and yet they don’t get it. I don’t mind if they don’t because honestly I can’t fully explain what it means to be an English major. It’s easier to try and explain something like a Business, Economics, Biology, or Engineering major, but I’m none of those so all my family knows is that I’m going to college and that I tell them I may become a teacher. It’s not far from the truth but it’s not what I am certain on, but I rather just leave it at that than tell them that I’m not completely sure about my future…

Well I’m pretty set on something right now, but I don’t know if I want to tell them about my ambitious desires. They wouldn’t find it practical. As important as taking care of family is to me, I want to make my mark as an individual before I think about only supporting my family or starting one. It’s a lot pressure. Sometimes I wish I wasn’t so set on doing so many things. It would make life a lot easier…but I don’t want to live an easy life. Yeah, that’s just another problem. I make everything too complicated for myself.

Sometimes I just want to sit and talk with someone. Talk. Analyze. Talk some more. Talk about everything. Life. People. Life. Ideas. Reasons. Frustrations. Senseless talk. If only there was more than twenty-four hours in a day.

I like how my mom and my aunt spoke to me like an adult today :] I just love tight knit birthday celebrations. 

You know if I ever met someone famous I wouldn’t ask for their autograph or want their autograph for that matter. I’d probably just want to have a talk, just two regular human beings having a conversation. That’s it. That’s the truth….well maybe a picture too lol but I’d prefer a conversation. You can tell more about a person by having a conversation with them than by having their autograph.
