The mood is pissed
So, for those of you that do and don't know. I had been planning to move down to Corpus after I graduated. If you didn't notice the main word in that sentence because you were too shocked of the news that you had just read, well the word was "had" meaning past presence. Before my parents decided that they were going to pay for my college and half of my rent for when I move down there. And so the other day I find my PERFECT apartment! It was love at first sight. Well, when I go to show my mom and discuss things with her cause since I was told that she was going to be paying for half, I figured she should have a say. Well, out of nowhere I am informed that they wouldn't be paying for ANYTHING! Yep, nothing. Not half of the apartment or college. My mind started racing! "What am I suppose to do now?" I kept telling myself....well if I stay here in the great and exciting town Leander, i wouldn't have to pay for anything. They would pay for my college and I would live at home for free. As great as that sounds....it doesn't. Maybe I am overreacting or being a dumb teenager. If so, let me know. But I don't want to live at home. Love my family but I need to express my freedom and grow and mature. How am I suppose to do that if I am allowed to be lazy and not have any responsibilities? But right now I am trying to figure out what to do. If you have any ideas fill free to message me =)

Awww, Lyss I'm sorry.
ReplyDeleteI know how excited you were.
I wish there was an wasy way out for you.
Love
i had a lot of semi planned out thoughts typed up then i changed my mind, i think you should chill at home, your going to be legal for the most part, so you can start doing your own thing, and regardless of your location, you still need responsibility, and to be perfectly honest i think its much easier to lear responsibility at home than anywhere else, so i would wait a year get a job save up pray a lot then act on it
ReplyDeleteHey Alyssa-
ReplyDeleteAlthough we have never really talked I found your blog very interesting. I know the feeling of wanting to have more freedom and be mature. I felt the same way when I was your age. You say you want to grow and mature but yet expect your parents to pay for things. Part of growing and maturing is paying for your own things and not relying on your parents. I learned that first hand. I thought that if I got married at 19 then I would be mature and grow!!! Boy was I wrong. I was real mature until that first round of utility bill came and then I felt very "young" and overwhelmed. I think you should stay home and enjoy being a young adult, get a nice "fun" job, go out with your friends, and enjoy life to the fullest. You are only young once and trust me if I could go back 12 years and enjoy life a little more before I thought I wanted to be mature then I would.
