1. I got a job interview? It is only a part-time job, with "sporadic" hours per week, but i get 22$ an hour. NOT THAT I'M GETTING MY HOPES UP.
2. My family are going to London next month, and my parents want me to come. One last family vacation before my bro goes to college. We haven't done a family vacation in years and years (although I guess they have, just... without me.)
3. just realized the local library has tons of cool movies. YES.
When we went to an awesome authentic mexican place in St Louis, my parents reaction was really bizarre. My mom speaks spanish and is from latin america, both of them lived in LA for 12 years... and they were completely on-edge about being in this area of town. Despite having told me stories about how when they first moved to LA they were scared of mexican areas, and then mostly got over it.
I mean, this isn't the best part of St Louis, but... it's an area where lots of my friends live, and where I go all the time. What gives?
Also, my mom said "it's like being in another country!"
Sometimes I am a smug asshole who laughs at my parents. Sorry. They are nice people, I just don't think they've been to bad areas of cities in a long time.
That food is so goddamn good though. Oh man.
