I am finding that as I have made a life-altering decision, with a determination I have never before posessed in my life, the people around me who I would expect to rally to my cause, and be the most excited and encouraged by my decision, are instead, in a hugely disappointing manner, pointing out every negative aspect in some sort of exhaustive effort to discourage me from following my dream.

I know I haven't been the world's greatest academic entity, and I know I hugely screwed up along the way, but honestly, after wandering around aimlessly for the last six years, without a clue in the world as to what I wanted to do with myself, I'm shocked and a little hurt that certain people have so little faith in me, that they feel it necessary to point out how "difficult" it's going to be, in this forboding sort of "I don't know what you're thinking" tone of voice.

The younger me would have listened and been totally discouraged by these voices. The older me is angry and wants to tell these certain people to fuck off.

I'll finish this rant later. Have to go back to the warehouse. The boss is complaining my lunch breakes are too long.

Late Night Update...

Today is a rant day for me I guess. I'm normally a positive person... but argh! Do I have a "Hello, I'm 12!" etched on my forehead? Living back home is driving me batty and from now on I'm going to hide in my little basement abode so my mom will just please oh please oh please, stop with the nagging. OMG, please. I think she's going to turn in to my grandmother.

Now there's a thought.
