I am aware that this is not the best. But it means something to me.
Here, take these and you'll feel better
Like little capsules can change my life?
Lying on a couch wrapped in a blanket
I pray today you won't call my name
But everyday is the same
For anyone that has read any of my past blogs, you have, no doubt, realized that I have a turbulent, bordering on non-existent relationship with my father. This was not always the case, in fact I used to feel extremely close to him despite his living quite some distance away. When I was in sixth grade, my mom requested that he take my brother and me every other weekend.
Today my mom and I went to visit my grandmother in her nursing home. It is always a sad experience. Although she recongnized us, it was next to impossible to have a conversation with her. The first thing she said when she saw me was that I was growing up. She then grabbed my hand and held it, smiling at me. I don't know why, but this upset me so much.
In light on the internet and numerous other advances in technology, the way society is fed information is much different than just fifteen years ago. Advertisement is likely to make a big change as things change even more. Today, advertising in newspapers is going to reach less people than ever before, and is also going to be targeted mainly to an older bunch of consumers.
It was a Saturday night in early December. I handed my grandma the first payment for her car that I was buying from her. She was charging me next to nothing, but she was old, and not wealthy, and I knew she appreciated anything I could give her. Especially tonight. She really needed that payment. She lived in a small house on our property, and I walked over to her house to deliver the money.
Dear Daddy,
You called yesterday, but you didn't even bother to speak to me. Do you know how much that hurts.
You never know who you are going to move when you speak. When you wake up in the morning, there is no way you could guess the people's lives you will change, the people you will meet, or who will change you.
I have this class, which, truth be told I have no interest whatsoever in, however, I am angered at the fact that I have not learned anything in it. First off, I meant to take World History from 1500- present. I accidently took World History from the formation of the earth time until 1500. It is very, very dull. With that said, I still want to learn about this time period.
