i love the transitions.

between classes, places, beats, days...

racial barrier


i fail.

college

is different. very different...

EE??????????????????/

holy crap, let's do this

i still haven't fully wrapped my head around "college."

almost 18 years i've lived with my parents...what will it be like to live without them?

maybe it'll be easy, since not seeing my dad everyday wasn't bad when i was in elementary/middle school and not seeing my mom everyday in highschool wasn't that bad either, and i didn't miss my brother too much when he went off the college, because i didn't see him in high school either.

i don't know...i sure hope my parents find something fun to do though. my brother and i have occupied their time for the past two decades, i hope they remember how to live with just the two of them.

there's no going back with this plan of mine...rutgers and ud don't have the degree i want. it's all or nothing now.

language barrier

i sit there, like a duck. i can listen, but i can't speak (well). my responses are short and my phrases, in pieces.

i'm 18 years old, and i know they serve soda over there (the drink that the kids like). i can't read that it isn't that type of tea, i'm sorry, i guessed.

i can listen, but i can't respond. i hear your undertones of mockery that you use, thinking that i don't understand, but i only sit there, listening.

i'm sorry, dad and mom...the language barrier does exist. and thank you for doing everything to try to overcome it. i'm sorry.
