Dejan's life

It's been a while. Time for a summary blog i do believe. So first off all, I'm 19 officially. Yay. Mother invited a few cousins over Monday, she got the day off work. We ordered pizza's, bought mudcake and whisky. I asked her if i could have a few friends over, because in recent month's these kids really have become family. She said yes, she and dad wanted to meet everyone.

I got home, cleaned my room, and waited. Family came first, friends later. It was kind of awkward. I'm on average like 5-10 years younger than my cousins. So our pool of conversation topics is quite smaller than average. After a while me and friends left to play tennis. It appeared to be a audition for the para-Olympics. We were not born athletes. We still had fun. My parent's got drunk that night, and i mean David Hasselhoff drunk. It was fun, some things that mum said I'll never forget, forever scarring. Though the one thing i was happy is that my family liked my friends and vise versa. I know my parent's are quite picky with that sort of thing.

I'm having a birthday dinner tomorrow. Somewhat excited. I was more thrilled to have my friends meet a select few of people i went to school with, just because i knew they would hit it off. That won't be happening. Pretty much everyone is bailing out, except Kevin; good ol' Kev-dawg.

Wednesday was something. I took charge of my life. After weeks of self-deliberation i came to a conclusion. I delivered an ultimatum. I told my parents if i failed any subject this semester i would be dropping law. We talked it out, dad is fine with it. Mum isn't. Lawyer Dejan was her little dream. Everyone seems to be in awe about me dropping out, well intending to. I don't know why, i never liked it; i thought people knew that oh well. I'll finish my Justice degree that's for certain, then ill do something post-grad after. I want two degree's i know that much. I can't begin to express how good it felt to get that off my chest after i told my parents. I came upstairs, put my favourite song on, turned the volume to max and sang like no one could hear. I texted Lauren. I was so happy.

I've come to realise i need to sort out my career. Something i can enjoy doing. Something that won't require me to live in another state. Something i can look forward to.
