St. Louis was good, I shall journal about that later. Suffice it to say that I had a good time but managed to pick up my nephew's cold and currently feel like s**t.
On the way home Dad asked how the college plans were going and I told him I really didn't want to go, and that segued into "I wanna move to Canada."
He didn't flip out like I thought he would. I mean, he gave me a lot of bull about how I was flying by the seat of my pants and didn't have a real plan and that I "never take advice and always have to learn the hard way," but still. He didn't pull off the side of the road and tell me to get out of the car or anything.
I finally just turned to him and said, "If you're trying reverse psychology, it's working." Now all I want to do is go up there and make it just to show him I CAN.
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray
*
Trying hard to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I'd pray (I would pray)
I could breakaway
*
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky...
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun,
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
*
Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleeping under palm trees
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get on board a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away
And breakaway...
*
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway...
*
Out of the darkness and into the sun
I won't forget all the ones that I love
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway...
*
Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging 'round revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me,
But I gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away
Breakaway
*
I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly,
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway...
*
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget of the place I come from
Gotta take a risk
Take a chance,
Make a change,
And breakaway...
Breakaway
Breakaway...

...I don't believe I've truly respected either of my parents for a really long time now. I think that they've both made a lot of crappy decisions. Granted, I wouldn't be here if they had, but still...
