Right now, the third day into our long weekend...isn't so great at the moment. Let me see, I haven't had the best time in my life. Since I got off, I have been shouted at at least once a day. My little brother has been being mean to me too. (Not particularly a surprise) But I wanted to have a harmonious family long weekend, but that hasn't happened yet. My older brother came home last night which was nice, but that's the nicest thing that's happened so far. I can't believe that everyone is finding it so hard to be nice to me this long weekend, and what's with the yelling at me? I'm one of those people that forgive quite easily, but I've been put through this so many times...is it that hard to just apologize? Usually, when people yell at me, I forgive them quite easily afterwards without even requiring an apology, but I don't see why I can't get one when one is quite necessary. I won't go into any specific details-it'll bore you. But once in a while, to someone who doesn't need or particularly like apologies, you can give them one.
Sorry, it probably sounds a lot like complaining, but sometimes the people that forgive others easily do need to vent once in a while too. Anyway to more happy matters, I received my acceptance letter from the one and only university I applied too, and now I just need to decide whether to accept my acceptance or go according to my original plan. My original plan was the teach skiing all next year, take language classes and earn money for a year long trip to Japan the following year so the year of 2013. But if I end up going to this university, I'm hoping to be doing a bachelor of arts, a double minor in languages and culture (Japanese) and digital media studies. That will be 4 years and I most definitely be doing semesters abroad. So it's either stay and live in this house for another year or move out next year and live there for 4 years. So some pros and cons; if I go to university; I'll have to have a loan(-), I'll have more than a high school diploma(+), um, pros and cons for original plan; stay here and teach skiing(+/-), travel to Japan 2013 (+)...as you can see it's pretty straight forward. A reason for why I wanted to travel before university is to find out what I really want to do without spending a whole ton of money only to go back and do something else. And so I can experience new cultures and languages and find my real self, find out who I am, what I like and what I don't like, and meet lots of new people, learn about different cultures and languages. Ever since I was little I wanted to travel before university. I am not a very academic student, not a very athletic student either, closer to the arts and languages.
Only March, April and May of intensive school left, then June is exams. I only have to stick out my hard-core studying until then. The only thing is I have to decide about next year pretty soon, because if I am going to uni I have to accept sooner rather than later- because I'll be a boarding student. Why do I have to make so many decisions so soon? So much pressure!! If anybody has any thoughts or suggestions, that would be great help! Thanks!!
