By the way


Back from my vacation. I don't know if I ever mentioned that. Went to go visit family over in the Midwest. My Grandma has Alzheimers and it was really sad to see her the way she was. I remember the days pre-Alzheimers when she was really with it, but when I saw her she was different. She remembered who we all were which I am eternally grateful for, the last time I saw my Dad's Dad who had Alzheimers and he didn't know who I was, whihc made it even sadder. But my Mom's mom would constantly talk about having to go home and my Grandpa would tell her that they were, and she say "Oh" and then a few minutes later say that she had to get home.
I really hope that they develop Alzheimers research to a level in which a cure or a vaccine or SOMETHING can be found. I don't want to see my parents go through it, and I don't want my kids to see my have it.

Tried getting a job today at a local game shop but they had already hired someone for the summer. I really don't want a job, but I owe my parents some and so they want me to get one. I just want to stay at home partially due to the fact that I am lazy, but also my monumental failure in all areas (socially, mentally, etc) except academics (aside: Got 2 A's 3 B's, 3.4 GPA, .1 away from Dean's list) has made me tired of the real world, and I just want to have another care-free summer like the younger generation before I have to embrace the 9-5 Monday through Friday routine.

Anyway! Take the quick survey! 13 people have already done so, and their answers are amazing. I'd like to hear more!
