an omelette named "breakfast"

1/18/15:

so i visited my best friend at her restaurant yesterday to help her catch up with school since she was on vacation for like two weeks.

(basically, i silently stared at her math book and told her what she did wrong and how to fix it, i'm a bad tutor .-.)

but we didn't have breakfast yet so we walked to a nearby target to go shopping for omelette and smoothie ingredients. (cause we aspiring chefs who like to be independent.)

and we talked while walking.

and when we talk, shit gets real.

we talk about things from the flaws of our lives to analyzing the small funny details of people that we once knew and how they changed.

but usually she's the one who does most of the talking, i take the position of "person who listens and subtly includes my opinion while still open to hers".

and she was talking about how she decided not to take singing as a career.

she gets nervous about the crowd and attention, so she's thinking about being an obgyn instead (she was also interested in the medical field.)

but this was surprising to me because she's been singing her entire life, and for her to just abandon that was strange.

but this is her decision, and i'm not stopping her.

then she said that her aunt will be able to provide her with a job immediately in the philippines if she were to study there.

her mom suggested that she ask her friends if they would like to go to college with her in the philippines.

so she asked me.

i don't know for sure if i would like to go, since i don't think i'd have a lot of job opportunities there.

i think she understood this though, she knows i wasn't interested in the medical field.

(personally, i feel that doctors are only providing care for money, if you don't believe that, it's okay,

but tell that to the $300+ bill for the x-ray i was forced to get for my spinal health PLUS an additional fee for the check up. volunteer doctors, however, are cool.)

so yeah.

she had this certainty about her life that i envied. she just was so into what she had to say, like she had everything figured out, no matter how serious or opinionated the topic was.

not only that, but she takes my opinion into account and gives me support, with the same certainty.

i just have this feeling of envy or fascination of her ability to be assertive and opinionated.

(but she also is very assertive and impulsive when she shops, which has us buying numerous health and beauty products in addition to smoothie and omelette ingredients. we ended up spending 106 bucks .__.)

anyhow, yesterday was just really interesting, and i wanted to share this with you. ^-^
