You are your Mother.



You ARE your mother in fact.

Ever wonder why? Developmental psychologists theorize that we internalize our parents. The proposed Freudian superego, eh?

I saw that on "Real Life Families" on none other than the Life Channel. I wish I knew that before because they were explaining it in this familial situation where the son wanted more "freedom" (much like moi) in his teenage years. And the parents, being parents, didn't think he knew better in the real world.

But really, for you overprotective parents out there....aren't you really harming your children when you don't release them into the world?

I guess i feel that way too. I feel like I've missed so many experiences and chances growing up because I was never exposed to them. But in a wierd way, I know it was, in some ways better...the internalization, I mean. Meanwhile being very annoying, I double check a lot of things (mother) and I make sure that I'm not late (father). And a lot of characteristics make me good at work and at school.

Can you say retro? I sat around and watched Three's Company today. And I still find themm sadly funny.

Also watched 2 Fat Ladies... I wished I had tuned in more when it was still on. It is fuckin' hilarious. . .I don't watch it for the food; it's pretty umm. Oily. But the accents and the funnies..

Unfortunately, one of them passed away, and the other pledged never to do a show again since her best friends' death.

I also want to see Snatch. It's a comedy coming out this Friday starring Brad Pitt, Robbie Gee, Benicio Del Toro. Mobster / con man / cute flick with accents. from the same writer of "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels"..

It LOOKS funny. And I know it will be funny...to me at least. Just my kinda humor. Plus it's got Brad Pitt conning a bunch of Englishmen.

"Wut"

For some very odd reason I find the stupidest things funny. [Yeh, stupidest.] And I find accents funny. (anyone ever watched Angela's Ashes? Not a comedy in itself, but funny accents. And wasn't the teenager Frankie CUTE?)

Holy cow it's midnight. I've noticed that I function very comfortably on ten hours of sleep.

I REALLY need a job. My Resume will be ready by the end of tomorrow, actually. I have to mail it in to school too.

I'm getting very bored with staying in this house all day listening to my mother telling me that I need to get a job. So I'll actually get one.

I mean...I have the video store, but really...who wants to go back there full time?

Like I was saying...midnight, and I'm planning a morning jog, math assignment and resume completion, and a reading of programming concepts.

..Part of me wants a job, part of me knows I'll use it as an excuse against school.

Today I'm Grateful That:

1) I sent in my approval application for CST.
2) I live in BC.
3) I'm single.
4) I'm sexy :).
5) I DO have nice lips.

If ya think I'm sexy..

Ya know, I think I've been in this house way too long because I pop on some "real" clothes, some makeup for class and I feel like a friggin' magnet or something.

Okay...so maybe in my evening class there were NO "attractive" (and I use that term loosely) females, and I'm the youngest, unattached girl there. Plus I think it's just that I stare at people longer so I feel people are looking longer at me when in fact they're just staring back at me...what was my point again?

Oh yeah. I felt pretty sexy today. heh.

Today's Physical Activity:

Kathy Smith's cheesy yet well-done "Great Buns and Thighs Workout". ...yep, I'm a exercise-video whore. I think I have about eight video tapes..but at least this year I'm getting around to them. And minus Kathy's "wheee"s and "uh-huhh"s, I'd recommend this tape to someone getting back in shape. Good intensity, early-90's music, and a lot of leotard.
