Christmas break, thank you God! I know once it's over i'm going to bitch about how it came and went too fast. But right now it's here, and damn it all if i'm not happy to be THIS much closer to graduating high school.

So, as far as my college fiasco is concerned I only have three main options of what i'm going to be able to do. 1) If my step-mom lets me, i'd live with her and attend TCC or something in Tulsa, Oklahoma. 2) I stay in Florida and apply for FIU or just go to Miami-Dade Community for a year and work up from there. 3) Take a year off and escape to Puerto Rico and disappear for a year and live amongst the common folk and soon become one with the town and be recognized as a respected guru among other things. All three of these sound very appealing, so you can understand how confusing it is to make a decision. It's one of those situations where i'm confused on which one I want to do that I don't take the next step in any of them and end up on my ass doing nothing.

I've actually started to take accustom to my new room that was previously created from one large room we had remodeled. I told my mom that I wouldn't do much to it because there's not much room and because i'd be leaving eventually so it wouldn't make sense. But I can't help but make something mine once it's mine. I've put up christmas lights, old trophy plaques , favored pictures of Bob Marley, female snowboarders, and I even have a fan. I'm hoping by the end of this it'll be just one big blob of what I like. I want to have a Ferris Bueler kind of feel to it too, the I-don't-care-what-it-looks-like-but-it's-still-gonna-be-me kind of feel.

My window faces the backyard of the house and my windows open and the pool guy/woman just showed up. I've never seen him/her before. I mingle between gender reference because i'm not really sure if it's a guy or a woman... He/She has a sad kind of face, looks Greek to be honest. The hair is by the neck so it could fit either man or woman so it's really hard to tell. Actually, I think it's a dude. But maybe it's the fact that people can't tell if its a man or woman is why his face is sad.

I'm so excited to see my family in Ny/NJ/PA during Christmas time. I love everything about going there. Everyday that passes is just a reminder of how close I am to being there. Being in a Puerto rican family really is a culture all on it's own. Usually my aunt Wanda throws the Christmas party in which most relatives and friends attend and we all dance to spanish music and mingle and the kids find solace in the downstairs basement where the smaller ones play video games and the slightly older ones just play drinking games. It's a system we've relied on for years. Then my other aunt Maggie throws the New Years party where the system pretty much repeats itself but on a less sophisticated scale and people just pass out in the middle of the living room face first (Yes, it has happened).

Oh! My mom is getting married on the 31st. She just told me yesterday. She was waiting to hear back from the lady who is going to do it for them, so she just told me. I'm excited for her. She deserves a good man to take care of her and her new hubby definitely fits the ticket. They've got a.. Brad Pitt&Angelina Jolie aura to them.
