I hate money. It makes everything more difficult. At least it does in my case since there's a lack of it. It's becoming the bane of (what I want to be) my life.
I've been going through a transition lately. Mostly because of the fact that I've been somewhat forced to become mostly financially independent from my parents. I'm extremely stingy and cheap the past few months trying to build up some money to live off of this fall (in an apartment in Knoxville, ideally). Which has forced my social life down the shitter, basically. The only person I really hang out with/talk to is Jake (which I really don't mind).. and even then we only hang out like three times a week. I talk to Jessica (my cousin/potential future roommate) a lot more now, and I really like that we've become closer. I've grown up this summer. Not completely, of course, but enough to where I feel like I can't connect with people the same way I used to. Honestly, I don't feel like I really have any friends. I'm not the same person I was in high school, and I really want to form bonds that don't depend on time. Having best friends that are only my best friends when I hang out 24/7 doesn't interest me...I like to spend time by myself and regroup. I want to have friendships that don't become awkward if I haven't seen the person for two or three days. There are a few people I'd like to see more often. I generally don't like people, though. Maybe I'm just meant to not have a lot of friends. Who knows.
PS; Emily, let's hang out more often, pwease? You're one of those people, haha.
I have Monday, Tuesday, AND Wednesday off this week. Victory is mine. I'm going to clean until my hands fall off.
