I've heard it said more than once: You have the rest of your life to work. And you know that parents are just people who are wishing they were kids again. Maybe they have a point... asking too many days off isn't very "professional" but whoever said I was a professional? Last time I checked I was just a kid. At least for two more months. Heck, why not 4 more months? Tomorrow is not guaranteed. I'm going to take whatever days I want to take off, even if it is just to watch my friends play a silly basketball game. I'll always be compared to my brother. If he's not at school, he's at work. I'm sorry I actually have a life and find other things to be far more important. Although I'm pretty sure he's not actually living. He's just like an empty shell of himself. I'm sorry that I only work four days a week. Sometimes that's four days more than some people. I'm only 17. I don't want this "Go to school, go to work" ordeal embedded in my brain. I just want to live. You gotta pay the bills, I understand that. But at what cost? Any cost is too much. Life is too short. Your life shouldn't be planned out at 17. Life is spontaneous. Take the days as they come and know that no matter what happens everything will be okay. I don't understand.
