Okay. I will probably try to fight the tears while typing this. But I need to write it somewhere. So blahh.. I grew up not being close w/ my dad. And we have our days where we'll just chill and chop it up.. watch basketball together.. or whatever. But the other day.. I snapped on him because he just went too far w/ his unnecessary shit-talking. We haven't talked for the whole week.. and it just sucks because his birthdays coming up on the 23rd. And It's like.. how can I fake being happy on his day. For example, on my Mom's birthday, Kuya Chester told us he's leaving for Iraq or Afghanistan this May.. being his last year in the Marines.. it may be exciting for him knowing all that scrill he'll get when he comes back home. But for us, it's nothing but that same feeling we got when he left for Iraq the first time. It was the hardest thing being away from my best friend, none the less, my brother. And only being able to communicate through letters. Not knowing if he was doing just fine or struggling out there. I just don't want to have to go through that all over again. He's the only one that can save me from my pops on his asshole days. So how do you fake being happy when all this is eating me up inside. Easily. How? Two words.. My family. We've been through so much and I'm more than blessed to have a family that's so strong. I've been bitter towards my dad the past week, but it's the only way he'll grow respect for me. I know we'll get through this, we always do. We just gotta suck it up and make the most of our todays and tomorrows. Thru everything and anything my family has encountered, they still make me the happiest/luckiest ever.
Anyways.. I'm officially a Unitek student, going to school to be an NCMA then LVN then RN. I can't wait to start in less than two weeks. Penny less but enrolled. Tuition was a grip. ): I'll probably move to the Une somewhere in the middle of the 7 months. Une for the weekdays, SJ on the weekends. I'm excited, scared, anxious, nervous.. all of the above, all at the same time. But it's where the $$$ is.. right?
