Last Beautiful Day

Things are changing.  I can feel it.

Before, I used to be so excited to go home and see everybody (especially those I haven't seen in a while), but lately, the feeling I get when I get ready to go home is more of obligation.  Does that make sense?  I feel like I HAVE to see them, not because I have the urge to catch up and somewhat relive our days from earlier years, but because if I don't see them or hang out with them, i'll be called on it, and therefore be considered a bad friend.

I haven't seen most of them since the end of summer break. My Thanksgiving break was not nearly enough time to meet up with everyone, so I came and left without seeing them at all.

I think it's because my priorities have changed.  As I get older, I realize that my mother needs help.  She's on her own most of the time taking care of my ill grandfather without any real help from her siblings.  My dad got sick earlier this year and now has diabetes.  It was a close call for him, and because of this, every minute we spend with him is more important, especially since we don't get to see him very often.  My sister is essentially my best friend.  I tell her everything and she's alone at home.  I feel like when I'm back home, this is my time to catch up with her and just be with each other.

I don't think my friends realize this.  My family has become increasingly more important to me in the last year.  I appreciate them more and want to make the best of the situation.  As much as I may bitch and moan about them sometimes, they're still my family and they're still my greatest supporters.

I constantly feel like I have to choose between the two - my friends or my family.  Upcoming New Years plans are a good example of this.  One of my friends has decided to hold her birthday celebration on New Years Eve - a joint celebration.  I'm getting the feeling that I have to choose between attending her shindig or spending the night with my family at my aunt's house.  Or at least with my parents.  It's always been important to them to start the New Year together, and as much as I scoff at the idea, it makes sense.

I'm choosing my family.  Obviously.  The events of this year have really made me see my family in a new light.  My dad's the greatest.  My mom is the strongest person I know.  And my sister is the most talented person I know.  My brother as well.  I admire them.  This decision may lead to disappointment for some other people, but I'm sticking to what feels right.

Live It Out

I'm old.

This revelation came to me this past weekend.  Now, it's been a while since I've done the whole clubbing scene.  I think the last time I did a full fledged clubbing night (complete with pre-drinking) was last year when Camilla and Joanne came to visit.  That was a long while ago.

Anyway, Nicole's friend, Diana, came down this past weekend.  She was one fun gal.  The first night we went to Queue Leu Leu, a coyote ugly type of bar/club in Old Port.  No matter what, I always have an amazing time there.  It's the one place where you can just go, dance on a picnic table to some ok music, and leave feeling like you've had the best time.  We stayed there until closing (3 am) and went home where I crashed pretty much once I got in.

The next day, I took it easy.  Did some work and again, went to Nicole's for pre-drinking and another club.  We decided to hit up Karina's, thinking it wouldn't be that packed.  We were wrong.  It was overly packed.  The most packed I've ever seen it.  By the end of the night, my body was aching.

The next morning, I couldn't even get out of bed!  It was ridiculous!  The tops of my knees are still in pain and my calves feel like I just ran a marathon or something.  I found out that Nicole is also in as much pain as I am.  We're pathetic partiers who would much rather stay at home with a bottle of wine and watch television.  Is that so wrong?

Man, my partying ways of first year are now over.  By next year, I'll be needing a walker.  My old lady bones can't take it anymore.
