One month
Today is our one month anniversary. My boyfriend and I have been together for one whole month. But man, oh man, does it feel longer than that. It feels like we've been together for a year or so, not a month. We were supposed to do something special today, but I knew I wouldn't be able to get out of the house with my family and all, and he totally understood. He said it was okay, but he said he was sorry that he couldn't treat me. I said it was all right, and that we'd have other times.
Anyway, he wrote me a poem. Oh My God, it was the sweetest poem in the world. When I was reading it this morning, it brought honest to goodness tears in my eyes. He admitted afterwards that he had been tearing up when he was writing it too. What a sap. He told me not to tell anyone else, because it'd ruin his image. He spends so much time working out, and he doesn't want any one else to know that he's just a teddy bear that I push around. I might insult 50% of the time, but I know he likes it when I tease him like that.
We had a grad breakfast, last Monday, for all the high school graduates. When we were entering, there were people tying corsages around all the girls wrists. Anyway, at the end of the breakfast the ribbon in the corsage was starting to get to me, so I got my best friend to untie it for me. And just on a whim, I threw it at him. He caught it and gave me a questioning look. I said, "if you don't want it, give it back." And he said, "no it's okay." After that I had to go home, because my mom and her friends were having a BBQ, and him and his friends were having a BBQ at a nearby park. Later he told me that he had the corsage tied around his belt, even when he was playing rugby with the guys. And today he told me, that he still has the corsage, he put it somewhere safe in his drawer..how sweet!
Other than that, my sister is going home tomorrow...whoo! I'm mostly happy, a little bit sad. The house will be a little bit more quieter, less people in the house, which means a little less laundry, cleaning and cooking. (Not that I do the cooking)
New Layout
Okay..so since I've been cooped up in my house...and since I decided to stop being soooo lazy, I decided to make a new layout..it's waaayy different than anything I would ever do, so I do hope that it looks nice..I tried my best to make it compatible in IE and Mozilla..but since I'm a Mozilla freak, I think it looks better in that..it looks pretty okay in IE too..so yeah. Anyway, the layout features Hilary Duff..I'm not too much of a fan of her, but I do think she looks really nice in that picture.
So..I'm going to try and work more on this site, since it is the summer and it's not like I have anything better to do...I was thinking of trying to get an at home job..does anyone know something that is trustworthy, and would bring me a little bit of spending money?
Hmm..my at home life is okay right now. My sister, husband and son came from Alberta and they're staying over for two weeks. One week is up, and there's another to go...I love my sister (unconditionally), but after having her around for a day or two, I'm ready for her to go home. She's pretty bossy, she nags, and she puts people down...especially me. I've learned to let whatever she says go through one ear and come out the other..I mean I can't be crying every time she insults me. Sure it brings tears to my eyes, but then I'm like no, I can't let her get to me.
What really annoys me about her is that she's always on my case..she's always like, what are you doing? When I'm at home..in my room, trying to be alone, I don't want people bothering me. What really irks me is that she'll come into my room when I'm talking on the phone and start talking to me. Helloooo, I'm already on the phone! And then she's always like, who are you talking to. It's none of her freaking business..I don't get on her case about what she's doing and who she's talking to..so I'd appreciate it if she didn't do that to me..now if only she'd realize that I get annoyed with her.....
Problems
What do I do to deserve this? What do I do to deserve the close mindedness of my family? Seriously?
They're not letting me work. I have never worked in my entire life, and they're not about to let me now. I got a job offer from a group that wants to hire me as a financial consultant, and they said no. That I was not allowed to get a job, and that working is for men. What in the world? They're not living back home anymore, we're living in Canada, in the 21st freaking century...not like the 19 hundreds or something. I swear to God, sometimes I just want to leave this house.
Not only do they not let me work, they don't even let me go out and hang with my friends. They want me to stay home, and do chores all day long. They want me to learn how to sew, and cook and be a good house-wife, that is all they want from me..for a while I just succumbed to it, but something hit me this year. That wasn't what I wanted..I wanted to do something with my life, not just get married at such a young age..what is it with brown parents? Why do they want their daughters to get married so young....gosh, the guys have it so easy.
I tried to convince my sister to talk to my mom about the job...and she was kind of okay with it, until they brought up the subject of college...now they want me to drop out of university and go to college instead. I mean what the heck? I just got accepted into University..I chose my course and everything, and they want me to change fields? Because Sociology is such a dead-end field? I brought up the idea of Interior Design, because that is what I first wanted to do..my eldest sister just laughed in my face and said, "what are you going to decorate, your in-laws homes?" Gosh..sometimes I hate my family..Now I have no idea what I want to do with my life..I'm so darned confused......I just want to run away from home.
