What Have We Come To

First of all, I'm tired of all this "I hate Canada" because they won the gold medal in men's hockey. Get the fuck over it...and don't disrespect my cousins.

So I was a little freaked out today to find out that my friend is not only married, but also going to be a father. He's not much older than me. This is really weird. Mostly because I know he preferred me to his girl (she hates me). He's a good friend though. But still this is really scary. Tory, him...who's next? Wait. I don't want to know.

People are getting married young and having kids once again. My parents think it's stupid. I suppose they have a point, but I've come to think it depends on the people.

I guess life never quite turns out the way you expect.
A year ago:
I never expected to end up at USM
I never expected to meet anyone from Alaska :)
I never expected to have a brother
I never expected to be back in touch with my Canadian cousins as much as I am
I never expected Luke
I never expected my parents to allow me to get a puppy

It's good though. All of it even if I complain sometimes...

I had to write an essay on a decision I would change if I could. I wrote about Hofstra, but at the end I said I wouldn't change that, because if I hadn't gone there I probably wouldn't have transferred back to USM and then I would have met so many great people, adopted Luca (he'd probably still be in a foster home), and of course Luke. So despite the painful experience at Hofstra, I wouldn't change it for anything. I only had one regret until I came home and it's looks like I have a chance to fix that now. So no regrets.

So many things are trying to keep me
And so many voices trying to reach me
To tell me that this is not the way
To tell me that this is my mistake

Oh, let the rain keep falling down
Cause it won't stop me
From getting where I'm bound
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe it's too late
But I'm gonna make it
Don't care what the skies say
So oh, let it rain
