Poor & Rich... been through both..

So the other day I was thinking, and I came up to a point. I have been both rich and poor. Not at the same time, well literally, but really as in with the money.

I might not remember a time when we were rich, what you call rich, but my parents have told me about it. Sometime before I was born, they came across a very large amount of money, and they used it all up somewhere in Beverly Hills. Lol. I am not really sure whether to believe them or not, but that is what they told me. I am pretty sure that my dad exaggerated a little, or a lot, but it is still nice to hear about their adventures. You have to admit, everyone loves to hear family's stories, whether true or not.

So anyway, according to my dad, they got a very large amount of money in Mexico. "Millions of pesos" my dad told me. How they got it? I have no idea, I think it was from a furniture company, but I am not sure. I've only heard this story once, so I can't even say that it's true. Well after that, they came to the United States and wasted the entire amount of money in a very few months. Around the time when I was still in my mom's belly. ^o^ When they ran out of money, my dad got a job, I was born, lived a couple years in California, then moved back to Tijuana.

Though, that wasn't my point, my point was that we have been poor and rich. I already told you about the time when we were rich, how about when we were poor? Well, I remember many times when we haven't had money for anything. Like this once when we didn't even have somewhere to sleep, and we had to sleep in some cheap motel. Or that time when we slept in my dad's car. Even though there have been a lot of times when we don't have a single cent, there has always been someone there to help us through. That is a really nice advantage. :)

Well, for now, we stay in the middle line, neither poor or rich, and I am perfectly fine with that,
all for now,

Dream #31 My sister steals a car :p

If I actually thought about it, I would know that my little sister is way more likely to steal a car than me. I know that for a fact because she's bolder and would risk anything to get what she wants. She has attitude, she knows what she wants, she gets what she wants, and if someone messes with her, well let's just say, she knows how to handle it. I have to admit, sometimes I do wish I was a little more like her, but then I change my mind.

You might be wondering what does this have to do with a dream?  Well it is because last night, I dreamt that my sister stole a car. Everything started really weird, because, I swear, I felt like I was actually living it. Everything started with me waking up, very early in the morning, and I looked next to me, and my sister was gone. Another thing about the dream, is that I controlled what I did, not like usually, when I just watch. Anyway, I for some reason knew that she was outside. When I went, I found her on a car, just like the one on the picture.

So, when I was with her, I told her that she was just doing something stupid, and to come out of the car. Though, she wouldn't listen, then she backed up with the car, after a couple feet, she started screaming, "I'm scared, Andy, I'm scared." I wanted to cry then. I told her that everything would be okay, that I would drive. I went inside the house, got my cell phone, keys, and for some reason a bible. Now that I think about it, it means something to my sister and I.

Before I got inside the car with my little sister, I saw an ostrich. Weird huh? Well, then I started driving, and I had so many thoughts going on in my head. What would my parents think? How would we come back? Would they worry? Plus many others.

When we were on the road, I woke up....

K-Pop (CNBLUE)

I just very recently discovered K-pop, thanks to my friend who introduced me to it a couple days ago and oh, I've fallen in love.. lol... again...

Well, it all started when we were discussing ideas for the school newspaper. She said that it would be cool if we did an article on foreign music. I told her that it sounded like a great idea. Then she asked me if I had ever listened to K-pop, and I told her that not really. So then she started telling me many, many, many band names or singers and titles of songs. I thought, well I should listen to them, I've got nothing to lose. So, I went ahead and downloaded many songs. Some of the bands she told me about were:
CN Blue (which I love, specially a song called Love MV), big bang, 2ne, 1snsd, b2st, 2pm and shinee.

Sadly, I haven't had time to listen to most of them. However, I am in the process, and so far, I have already started to love CN Blue, and it was just the first I listened to. So, I really don't doubt that I will like the rest of them as well. :)
For now, I will listen to CN Blue <3

Love, Love, Love,

Things people do while driving....

Today while I was on the bus, I looked out the window and started noticing the things people do while driving. You probably already know this, because either you've seen it or do it yourself.

So, by the end of my very enjoyable bus trip, which reminds me, they transferred our bus today(weird),  I concluded the top 3 things that people do (according to me):

1. Text - I saw way too many people texting, I should have known
2. Eat or drink - Many had some kind of drink or food in their hands
3. I saw many girls doing this, you might as well guess, Make-up - I suppose they were running late

So, it is my guess, but sometimes people do stupid things behind the wheel. I mean, if your going to drive,  might as well try to drive right.Oh well, I guess people really don't like to follow rules. Then they wonder.. why do accidents happen?... ugh..

I also looked up online what people do while driving, and I found the most bizarre things. I mean real bizarre: People shaving, reading, changing clothes, there was something about kissing and making out too... okaaay.....

What else can people do?!

Nerdy?? If u say so ^o^

Back to school, but more importantly back to Journalism!! Oh, and I must not forget, back to the book club. That is talking about myself, lol, I shouldn't be so selfish. ^o^

So, I think that my Journalism class is going rather well. First of all, because we got right into reporting this year, and because everything seems more serious than last year. I don't know why, but it just seems that way to me, maybe because there is more people. However, that is okay, because it just means that the class will be more fun and we'd be better working on the paper. More articles. :)

Though, enough of that, and moving to another nerdy subject. The Bookclub!! :) Today we had a meeting and I was so happy to be back. Really, even though, nothing really happened, we just discussed the events of this year. So I guess that's that. Am I boring you yet?? lol.. oh well, I guess I just needed to write today, because I haven't gotten a lot of homework lately, that just means I have a lot of free time. Oh, and I couldn't find anything else to write about. So, there you have it. Though, I promise I will find more interesting topics to write about. :)

My little sister, and her ways.... *Sigh* (The things about divorce)

The other day I was talking to my mom, just about random things, when she started talking about my sister. I thought it was nothing important, but that was before I actually listened.

Apparently, my mom had a very serious conversation with my sister. My mom told her, or somehow tried to explain what would happen if she and my dad got a divorce. She said that she explained the whole "We can't be together anymore" thing. My sister didn't say anything, and listened, but my mom said that at one point my sister got really frustrated with her. She started telling her that if they got a divorce she would kill herself. That she wouldn't take it. So, from this I got many things, because my parents have talked to me about divorce before, and I always thought about that one option, but never told anyone about it, instead I kept it inside. Besides, it wasn't like I would ever do it, unless things went really bad.

Anyway, my little sister actually told them how she felt, and I believe that it was her who got them to stay together. Just because of that little threat, when in reality, she's told me that if they get divorced, she'd come and live with me (When I'm over 18).

Divorce is a really hard thing to go through, but I don't think it should cause anyone to take such drastic measures. It happens to many people, who have every right to go for that, the problem comes when the only thing keeping a couple together in a relationship is their kids. I mean if there is no love, what is there? Nothing, because love is what keeps a family together. Don't you think? Yeah, the kids are important, I get that, but they'll get through it eventually. On the other side, how can a married couple raise a happy family when they can't even stand each other or get along.

That's just my point of view. I know for a fact, that parents that are constantly fighting and making life harder without admitting that they don't love each other anymore are harder to bare than parents not living together. I've lived like this for the last few years, and I am telling you it hurts a lot more to have to listen to all those fights and arguments than it would to just watch them split up. If it had been up to me, I'd been thankful if my parents had gotten a divorce a long time ago. Or if they could just fix their problems and make life easier for us, that would have been the best thing ever.

I'll just have to keep living with it,
Annie♥
