do you ever wonder what life would be like if you had chosen another path? like, I dunno, sometimes i think of what life would have been like had I decided to stay with my parents and go to a local university instead of traveling half-way around the world. well for one thing, I would be with my parents and my siblings and I would never miss my family and I get to have those long intellectual conversations with my dad and talk about old music from the 1970’s with my mom and make fun of 5th harmony and ariana grande with my sister and wrestle with my brother and and eat fried fish and bagoong (its a filipino thing look it up) every day.
Then again, I wouldn’t have met the amazing people from the past summer. The experiences are priceless. I absolutely love the family i’m staying with they’re kind of really awesome x 10. The kids i’m nannying for until school starts are really fun to be around although it gets tiring being around people all the time. Eventually, i’d like to venture into the town and sort of walk around. I wish i had a bike or my skateboard so i wouldn’t have to. In the states, i guess, you still need like a working permit or something even just to volunteer somewhere (or maybe it was just at that one store).
Well, although i miss home (and i’ll be missing hom for forever thank you very much), and my friends and family (special mention to skype and oovoo for being there for me), I’m really enjoying it here in New Mexico. I look hispanic so people speak like spanish to me and stuff and then there’s the occasional immigration scare cause i look like i’m an illegal immigrant or someting WHICH I AM NOT!! also, my first arival in the united states of america wasnt the most pleasant either. I have that short loudmouthed customs officer scumbag jerk at JFK airport, NY to blame.
Anyway, there really is not point to this. But i’m trying it out. see how this goes. okie dokie!
