Where Does the Good Go
I have returned. What a surreal weekend it has been. First high school ends, next I take a stand and tell my mom I am going to Northeastern, and then my uncle gets married. The guy who no one ever thought would take the plunge finally got married. My eyes didn't stop crying much this weekend either. I cried at school (one of the only ones), I cried talking to my mom about college, and then I cried at both the wedding and reception. My uncle was so happy and it was one of the best moments watching him stand there saying his vows. Yea he's my favorite person in the entire world and we're really close so it was just amazing.
more wonderful words from psycho mom this weekend. came home tonight and she went off about my intentions for going to college. she accussed me of wanting to go to northeastern so i could run away to my new lifestyle or something along those lines. then i have a friend going there too so my mom inquired about her and asked if she is weird and if she has a boyfriend. ok no she's not the reason i want to go there and no she is not gay. but yes so my mom has spent the past two hours since we have been home trying to knock me for making the choice to go to northeastern. she's implied that it's stupid, she thinks my intentions are wrong, and she has basically said i have to do this all on my own and have no support. how fantastic is that. so tomorrow has me getting up bright and early and heading to every store i can find to apply. i need to get like three jobs or something and just work my ass off until i leave for college. i aslo have to find scholarships to apply for and call the financial aid people at the school and talk to them and hopefully i can somehow find a way to make this all work. we'll see what happens.
now it's time to catch up on everything i have missed the past few days.
jodi- mmm such great heights is so a postal service song. iron and wine does an ok job with it but the original postal service version is way better. everyone should love the postal service.

Yay! Welcome back to the blogsphere! Missed your blogging butt.
Anyways, I'm super happy about your uncle and boo on the psycho mom part and supporting yourself part. Good on you to tell her about going to northeastern :D.
Good luck with the job hunting thing tomorrow...or today. So I shall head off to bed and hopefully fall into a deep sleep. Night/morning!
Faint, are you going to have a graduation ceremony?
Best of luck to you with Northwestern. You'll be back to Beantown and the Sox if it all works out.
So sweet about your uncle. I was able to visit with relatives over the weekend & really loved it.
wonga- my mom has settled down. now it's on to angry scary dad. totally avoiding home again. and the job thing didn't happen but it will tomorrow.
