I decided I never want to grow up. Since I'm still in college I'm with people younger than me. I don't mind it at all. It gives me a golden opportunity to learn new stuff that fortunately isn't part of school. I'll get to my point. I like the BBC. I like going out on the weekend with friends and partying when I get the chance. There's this awesome show called Red Dwarf that a guy I was dating for three months introduced me to besides the TV show Doctor Who, his favorite. They use these funny words like Smeghead, Smeg, and make all these funny insults to each other. For the record Smeg means the F-word in Red Dwarf terminology. In my dictionary it can mean anything!
Now for part 2: I hang with snowbros. I have a group of friends I go to school with who love snowboarding. They use these really funny words like Jong, Jongbag, Gerb, words like that. One day I looked up the word "Jong" on Urban Dictionary. The definition was a person who thinks they're really good at snowboarding or skiing but they're not. I asked my friend what Jong is and he said,"Jong is anything you want it to be." My reply was,"Well Smeghead or Smeg is anything you want too even though it means the f-word in Red Dwarf terms."
However, when I use these words around my parents they nearly drop their cups of coffee on the floor. Its devastating. Considering they were around when the Red Dwarf series began in 1988 its kind of sad that they hate me using those words. Its like when I was younger and they would freak out when I had a worse potty mouth than I do now. My parents ask,"Where are you getting these words from? What do they mean?" Hey, I'm not 9 years old and using words that are considered derogatory today. I'm just trying to expand my vocabulary.

10 Month Certificate for Leadership? After I Graduate? No Dice Mom!
So today I was hanging with my mom at my house. For as much as I love my parents they're really pushing it with the whole education deal. As of late my mom has this idea: A 10 month leadership certificate program at Westminster after I get my Bachelors degree. My response, a head shake. She asks,"You like leadership don't you, you took a few classes in it so why not?"
I like leadership.
I'm good at telling people what to do, problem-solving and feeling like I'm worthy of being a leader. Its something I pursued when I got to college.
I'm burned out.
I don't really want to think about MORE SCHOOLING after I graduate next year hopefully. I just want a break. Ideally, this consists of a good job, paying off my student loans, and a cruise to the Caribbean or a trip to Greece. (Greece is my mom's idea) Taking a year off. Doing the things I want. Not having college in the way. Graduate school will always be there for me. Whether I go in a year or 10 years. Right now I need some space. College is so wonderful I can't stand it any longer!
