fault in our stars

If he’s a nice guy then I guess that makes me Satan. My mum is okay with it, she’s been a nurse for as long as I can remember so she’s a little upset about it but she seems to understand that I want to do my own thing. 

Eh, I guess your pretty evil. Ha. Your mum is a nurse and your father is a doctor. And yet you're not gonna be the good ol' son, and follow after them? Wow. I applaud you.

I know, right!? I just hope the hazing doesn’t get too bad! Aw, thanks, I really hope I get in!

I'm sure you will. No hoping. Gotta be confident. You will get in.

I wish my dad would disown me. He almost had a heart attack the day I called him and told him that I had changed my mind about med school and I didn’t want to follow in his footsteps. I thought that man was gonna beat me senseless. 

Your dad sounds like a very nice guy, ha. What about your mum? Does she support your decision?

Yep! But I think so too! I hope so…I dance! And cheer… and apparently this is the sorority for that kinda stuff! Oh, that makes sense, I guess. There is a lot of work, after all.

Huh, that sounds like a lot of fun. Then that sorority really is for you. Best of luck in getting in, although I'm sure with your pep you will. 

Because it’s the best! I think so, too. Oh? What’s your thing, then?

Is that what they told you? I'm sure you'll fit in, though. My thing is nothing. I dance, yeah. Freshman year I was into the whole sorority thing, but stuff changed. So I'm just focusing more on school.

Yeah. And I guess my dad is having a hard time grasping the concept that I don’t want to be a doctor. 

Fathers are always the most pushy, I tell you. My dad would be very pissed at me if I didn't become a doctor. He'd probably disown me or something.

I’m pledging Sigma Phi Alpha. What about you!?

Ah. I heard about that one. The girls there are pretty uh, cool. Me? I'm in no sorority. Not my thing.

I’ve been doing that all day already, but with hot chocolate instead of tea.

I don't know what it is about hot chocolate, but I don't like it. Maybe a latte, but never hot chocolate. Unless it has marshmallows and whipped cream in it.

Everyone says that! Sure I do, I’m just a good hider of sad feelings.

That's a good thing, but then again not really. Hm. Are you in any of these sororities?

Yeah, it sucked. But hes into painting too, so he does that now.

Painting sounds pretty fun.

Cause my parents are stuck up and hate the fact that I didn’t go to med school so I hear about it every time I visit. 

Med school, huh? I was supposed to be going to a medical based school, but thought I'd just study a few things, and then transfer next year.

I think we have ourselves a deal! Yay!

You're a really happy person. Do you ever get upset or sad? Ha.

My mom is a good cook, I’ll give her that, but other than her food I don’t like being at home. 

My house is pretty loud, so that's something I won't really miss. Just the food. Why don't you enjoy being home?

Yeah, he had too. He got too old, so he kinda wants me to carry on the tradition.

I would hate to retire. He obviously loved his job if he wants his son to get into that type of stuff.

Just let me know if they get cold, so that I know if it’s chilly or not! Nope, not today. It hasn’t rained.

I will definitely let you know when they get cold. You let me know when it's raining. Alright?

I am excited but only because I get away from my family. 

I sorta miss my family. I was getting too used to the home-cooked meals.

Little bit of both, I guess. My dad was a firefighter, so.

Your dad retired? Good to know you're following in his footsteps.
