Figure It Out
Jul. 17th, 2009 12:58 pmI hate how I am always the "Go-To" person in my immediate family. Whenever there's a question about anything, I am the one who is asked to clarify. To be honest, it gets really irritating, really fast. I guess that's what I get for being born into a family full of Asians. English is not the first language in my household. You could imagine what that's like on certain days. Today is just one of those days. It is a daily process in which I have to constantly answer questions. "What does this word mean?" or "How do you spell this word?" etc. Sometimes I don't know what to do with myself. Other times, I desperately wish to be released from such an obligation. It's not that I don't like helping my family. Although it would be nice to not be the sole person to go to whenever there is a question regarding anything American or the English language.
Although in my own sense, I have to rely on others almost as much as my family relies on me. It's kind of tragic to know how the circle works. Then again, life works its wonders and everything happens to end in a good way.
Today brings a trip to various locations with my sister. I need to grab a bag of dog food and pay off the rest of Jim's vet bill. The total amount will be well over $80. I am waiting for the day when I am financially stable and everything is a little bit (or at least in my mind it will be..) easier to control.
Being at this age, I am anxious to find what tomorrow brings. Although I cannot predict the future, it would be better to ensure tomorrow is successful.
Tomorrow will actually bring the Chicago NFB chapter picnic at Lincoln Park Zoo. Excitement is amongst the other emotions floating through me.
Meeting new people is my incentive to actually attend the picnic.
I have yet to do geography homework. Ugh - I need to play some serious catch up.
Many things have to be finished before August.
