Another day of vacation and another day in a row that I am blogging :)
Today did not consist of doing too much. I went to the dentist. My teeth are ok. This afternoon I went to a friends and talked with her for a while. I caught up with what is going on in her life. During the school year, we talk online a lot. AIM is a wonderful invention. I think I might have mentioned that earlier.
Lately, I have been saying that Texas is home. For instance, I would say "When I get home, I will have a room to myself." or "I go home on the 9th." As much as I do not like to say this, but Texas does seem like home. I have been leaving there ever since my freshmen year. Basically the only time I visit my parents is like Christmas time. The town changes soo much in the time I am gone that it seems like a different time. I guess I am moving into the world of adulthood. I am out in the world making a life for myself. I am not relying on my parents to provide for me. I am independent of the way they do things and the place they call home. I am living my own life. I completely enjoy it too. I would not trade my life for anything right now. I love it too much. I love my friends and I enjoy living on my own and I love the relationship that has been formed with my parents.
Also, I have been reading various books about Holocaust survivors. I really enjoy reading them because I learn so much from them. I learn how they survived being tormented and put into prison camps or gone into hiding. I often wonder what I would do if I was put in a situation like that. Would I be proud of my beliefs or heritage? Or would I try to change them so I would not die? I hope that I do not have to face a situation like that. But sometimes I want to just to see what I will do and maybe encourage others not to give up.
Oh, the good friend that was sick is somewhat better. Now he just has a sore throat. And my dad is feeling better. But my grandpa is gonna have to have heart surgery. Pray for him :)
