My weekend!!!

So I got to hang out with three great people this weekend!!! I had my little brother and sister stay the night on Friday and my very good friend Siva visited me on Thursday night! It was a nice, fun, and easy going weekend...I wish there were more of them! Everything was nice.

I saw two movies this weekend...The Great Debaters and National Treasure:Book of Secrets. They were very nice.

I also has a very soul searching discussion with a very good friend about one of the few words in the world that excites me and scares me at the same time: शादी . Ya...the other word, or should I say phrase, that can give me the same feeling is: children. That's a lot to discuss and think about.

On the one hand, I can't wait to share experiences with the love of my life but on the other, I think that it is such a difficult concept to fathom. Especially since I am 20. Who can say that they are truly prepared, at 20 years old, to have kids? I can see getting married, but kids? Even thinking 4-5 years from now, I just don't see myself with kids. I know it's odd since I work with kids every day at work, and I think i'm pretty good at it. But with those kids, at the end of the day, they go home to their own parents. I don't know if I can give up my style of living for a child. Heaven knows having a husband will be just about the same...lol. Just kidding :D

I just feel that there is so much that I can do. As I am graduating this spring/summer, I am very confused as to what I want to do with my future. I would love to go to school and get my MA in translation or something, but on the other hand I would also love to work for some agency like the State Department or something. Even though I'm not an expert in international relations, I think I can do a pretty good job at it.

Oh my gosh, that got me thinking about Model UN. As president of the society, I have a hard task in front of me for the upcoming semester. I need to get my proposal for a MUN merit system approved by Professor Fornella and somehow figure out how to "bring the spirit of the UN back into MUN". Ya...a lot of work.

So I have decided that I will aid my research with a trip to the UN in NY! This weekend I will be in Jersey to visit Siva (and to go to Canal st. for another purse!) and I will also visit the Guggenheim Museum. I can't wait!

Until next time!!!
