Where do I belong?

I wish I knew. Sometimes my stupid ADHD brain has enough sense to know where I should not go and where I am not welcome.

I received an email that the history students and faculty will be meeting at the new on-campus pub. I've been to socials before, though not beer in hand, and I was basically a wallflower. I'd say hello and some folks would speak to me--and then I could not figure out how to carry on the conversation. Hell, even my journals are pretty much one sided, and you see how boring and self-centered I am. I can talk nonstop and not say a word worth hearing.

Anyway, I don't think it would be "right" for me to show up. I still owe money from last semester. I don't know if I'll ever have the money or ability to return anyway. It would be wrong and awkward, to say the least, to go. "Where have you been this semester?" "Are you coming back in the fall?" Or from the profs who don't know me, "What is your thesis topic?" I have no answer.

So here i am where I stared several years ago. In my cage all alone. Chris and Kay have been asleep for hours. I'm a bit tired from lack of sleep for several days.

Kirsten is so eager to have a car. How to find one? Our favorite barrista at Starbucks has a small Kia of some sort that she wants to sell but not right away. I know nothing about cars so I have to leave this to Chris. She needs a car and she needs lots of practice driving it. Supposedly her boyfriend is getting one for graduation.

I bought a couple of prom magazines and she found an emerald green dress she loves. I don't know how it would look on her. It would have to be altered because the slit is too high for the schools standards. I don't know all the rules. here's a link if you're interested to the enviprom site. [link]
Keep in mind, she plans to wear ballet flats or something. She will not wear heels. I hope she'll get something nice to wear to after prom at Dave and Busters. No, I promised her I would not be a parent chaperone. :-)
It's not what I had in mind for her. I have no idea how much it is. We need to check out a few places asap, but she's feeling icky this week so it will have to wait.

I'm hoping to sign up for the Aids Walk soon. It's right after spring break, I think, so my hip should be okay. I didn't do it last year but did the year before when Kay was in Italy.

You know... I've never been to a social... I even missed my Prom through no fault of my own. :( At least you've been to one, eh? :)

As for being alone in a cage, I'm usually in the same situation. I know no-one in this country outside of work, and those I meet through work, I have nothing in common with. It's a big change from the numerous close friends I had in England, since I have none here...

As for a car... Aren't there any really cheap ones around? My first car was a 1991 Nissan Micra... :P I had it until it died... xD

Oh, and that dress looks gorgeous! I think she would look absolutely amazing it!

No, I never had prom. I went to a really strict private Christian high school. One of the reasons I was determined that my daughter attend a public high school is because I didn't want her to miss out on things like that. I know some girls don't even go to their prom or care, but I've never "gotten over" never going to one.

Since I don't drive at all, I am totally clueless with anything having to do with the buying, selling, driving, or upkeep of cars. My husband has to handle this and he has to be motivated.

I was looking at some of the language spoken by Bulgarians. OMG! Have you learnt any of it?

I had hoped she'd get a darker green. I still need to see how it fits her and I need to see how much it will cost.

Da, malko Bulgaski, malko Ruski. Edna godina ot obuchenito. ^_^

I haven't go a cyrillic keyboard here, so I have to write it in our alphabet, but that basically means:

"Yes, a little Bulgarian, a little Russian. 1 year of learning." ^_^ It's really hard! 0_0 I can read the cyrillic alphabet easily which is kinda cool. :) And the language is phonetic so you just need to learn the sound of words. But that's harder than it sounds. xD

I with to a Church of England junior school... I hated it. I've never liked being forced to do something, and we were forced to pray in the morning, at lunch and the end of school. We were made to sing hymns twice a day every day... Stuff like that. I didn't mind it being religious, I just didn't like not having a choice, if that makes sense.

Yeah, it makes sense, most people who are forced to go to religious school hate something about it. At least it was probably liturgical. I was raised Baptist and they thought liturgy was evil and papist.

Bulgarian looks hard but I know what you mean about phoenetic. One just has to be interested or motivated to learn a language.

Tonight my song is Quote by Evans Blue. I was a huge fan of theirs.
:iconbrokenopen:
I actually had to look up what "liturgy" means... xD

Bulgarian isn't difficult once you get your head around the alphabet. ^_^

And I love that song, although I still prefer Cold. ^_^ I've got Proud of You playing at the moment. :)
