For a minute there, I got really excited. I start thinking what it'd be like to buy a new camera and go out a bit more to take pictures of everything within viewpoint. I was figuring out ways to simultaneously get out of debt and still be able to purchase a nice SLR camera by my birthday and then my Dad started interrogating me on my whereabouts yesterday which brought me back to Earth and reminded me I've got bigger problems to deal with at the moment.
I need a car. Not just to get me from place to place like the one I'm currently using, but I need a car under my name. It's getting to that point where I'm about to run. It's frightening and exhilarating at the same time.
Even though it's completely ridiculous for me to be thinking about this at this point in my life, I want to go on a road trip. During the summer when Southern California gets unbearably hot I want to get in a car and go exploring the other states of this nation. Hopefully by then with a camera in tow to better capture everything.
Now the only problem is, who with? No offense guys, but every time I mention something like this nobody really seems to be on the same page with me and Carlos is the only usually trying to convince me not to do anything drastic. But why? I'm still young, now's the time for drastic decisions! I'm still working on him as you can tell. Sure, everyone's excited at first, but there comes a point where the planning is supposed to begin where things fall apart. I know I'm not the past planner and am prone to bouts of anxiety so I need someone equally or more excited than me to push me forward!
This feels like a want ad, mostly because it sort of is. :]
Ah, well.
In case you were wondering more about the gang wars, The LA Times has a fantastic page dedicated to all the articles and keeps track of the killings.
