I haven’t updated this in a while. I set it so now I can update from my phone, through text. We’ll see how that works.
I got back from vacation yesterday. We went to New Jersey for my older brother’s wedding. It was really pretty, and simple. I’ve never heard of self-unity, but it’s really interesting. There’s no priest, but you both sign a legal document, and two witnesses also sign. Perfect for those who aren’t religious, like me. I got to be a bridesmaid. I loved my dress. It was cloudy blue, strapless, and long. We stayed at their beach house in Avalon. It was amazing. You walk a block down the street, and you’re at the ocean. And it was huge! A total of 4 bathrooms, and 7 bedrooms. My sister Claire and I shared a room. It’s really peaceful there. There’s other people around on vacation, but you’re away from the hustle and bustle of the city. I finally got to breathe.
After the wedding, we went down to Louisiana to visit my grandparents, from my mother’s side. They live about 10 minutes away from New Orleans, so we ventured down there twice during the trip. My sister, brother and I stayed at my cousin’s house, with my aunt. I had never met her before, so it was interesting. She’s a really nice person, though. I really missed my cousin, Christine. She’s about 7 years older than me, but we get along really well. <3 I hadn’t seen her for roughly 11 years. But she shares my love of narwhals and cupcakes. So obviously I approve.
During the trip, I had a lot more lows than highs. I genuinely tried my best to enjoy myself, but I sometimes couldn’t. There were a few nights where I just locked myself in a room and stayed there because it hurt too much. During one of the times, I couldn’t bring myself to speak, and my vision kept glazing over because my concentrating ability was just gone. I had my cousin during those times, though. She always came over and hugged me and wouldn’t let go until I told her what was wrong. Sometimes that’s all it takes.
In New Orleans, I went to see a legit psychic. Like, he’s completely dead-on correct. He said that I’m a procrastinator (but do well at the last minute), patient, I worry too much, I need to update my glasses prescription, and I need to watch my iron. He also said that I’d marry once, never divorce, and if I had a kid it would be one son. I’ll go to UWM, and psychology was a good choice. The psychic told me I might consider going the criminal psychology route, working with prisoners and juveniles. We’ll see about that. xP This year may have been difficult, but next year will be better. But generally, he’s spot on. I find psychics and the occult very interesting. My brother thinks it’s bullshit, but I’ve always thought otherwise. I’m probably going to get some books on it when I get the chance.
I guess that’s all for now.
