So The Boy and I talked some more, and he thinks he would like to persue a relationship with me.  

I asked him point blank if he's interested despite our religious differences.  

He said yes, which is scary.

I don't know what to do.

You are in an art museum when a blind man deliberately starts a fire. He becomes separated from his guide dog and they are both wandering among the flames lost and confused. You face this decision; save the dog, save the arsonist or save an artwork.

Hey Guys!
I am 20 years old (almost 21) I've lived in the U.S. for almost 11 years but I was born and raised in the beautful South Africa and I speak Afrikaans. I will be a junior in college and I'm majoring in Spanish, Int'l Politics, and Philosophy. After college I hope to go to law school and become a criminal defense attorney. I like to read, listen to music and go out with my friends. My life is pretty ordinary, nothing really exciting, but I would love to make some new friends and if there's anything you want to know just ask :D

3 MORE WEEKS UNTIL I GO BACK TO SCHOOL! I am soooo excited! I hate being stuck in the Poconos... I really really do. I hate being under the watchful eyes of my parents. It's time to get back to the happiest place on earth to start my junior year. Plus to top it all off I will be 21 in 2 weeeeeeksssss. AH so excited!
This is bound to be the best year yet. Hopefully with a new year comes some new beginnings. That's what I really need. A new beginning. Hopefully my new job as an RA will be awesome and that will help me to keep my mind off of things. That and some brand new classes and hopefully some new friends will do me some good.

I'm going to Matt's dad's wedding tomorrow, after meeting his dad after a mere 16 months on Tuesday. That was an incredibly nerve wracking experience. In my meagre 20 years of life, Matt's mum is the only parent of a partner I have met. I must make a very bad impression. But I'm somehow managing to get to Preston tomorrow on £10, then go out and pay entry to clubs and drinks. Matt's step mum to be in a Filipina (is that a real word?) called Daffodil, and she is the cutest little thing. Ah well, I get to see my chicken tomorrow evening after a stressful commute. Sleeping on the floor of Matt's dad's apartment with all of Matt's family should be great. At least his sister (who is a legend) and her equally legendary boyfriend will be there. PEOPLE MY OWN AGE! Wonderful.

Ezgi called me the other day, but I was too busy to take the call, let alone too poor to pay for international calls. Damn. I miss her so much, but I'm too busy. I have letters written for about five people, including Armi and Josie, but I can't pay for international postage until I get paid. I'M SO FUCKING POOR! I know it sounds like a lame excuse, but see above. This week has been totally busy, I've not even been learning Finnish or doing anything language based. By the time I've finished commuting home, done the washing up, cooked, eaten and watched half an hour of TV, it's time to iron and shower for the next day. Plus the nature of my job means it is hard for me to do anything productive other than work at my desk. *sigh*. I just keep telling myself six more weeks, till new friends, new start, new lessons, new house, new stuff, and the joy of being back in a student oriented lifestyle. Not trying my damndest to make is as a nine-to-fiver, but failing. If I'm finding this difficult now, will I succeed after a graduate? I'd like to think I would, 'cos the chemists I work with work from nine til three. Sweet.

This might not turn out to be the most action packed summer ever, but it's definately going to be the most productive, and with a bit of luck, be one of the more memorable summers in my life.
