So there’s a family event coming up and my dad was contemplating on having the unit (me, him, mom, and my little sis) to attend this event next month. I’m looking forward to visit so I can meet my crazy grandma (so I don’t have to worry about seeing her later in the summer alone) but I don’t want to see her and the other folks because I know they are going to mention two things to me: boyfriends and babies. I’m going to tell them the truth. I don’t have time for that stuff. It’s funny how they are more focused on who I’m dating or when I’m going to have children on my own than the fact I’m going to grad school this fall and what I’m going to do afterwards. I don’t have time for that now. All I want to do now is graduate from grad school, get a kickass job, and live on my own. That is all. Besides, I have never seen a perfect relationship within my family to be rushing myself into one myself. I guess if I go, I’ll just tell them how it is and they are going to have to deal with it. They can get disappointed at me if they want to. IDGAF.
