Is it odd that the fact that I'm right in this case bothers me? I feel super bad that I lectured her and then blocked her, especially after she was nice enough to make me that graphic for my lj layout, and she cheered me up after my first lecture...
I'm sorry, Stephanie, I really am. But I'm not wrong. Maybe my approach was wrong, but... If you really do want to be a musician, regardless of whether you want to be with us or not, you need a full-time job, or two part-time jobs. You need money to do anything.
Also, just like I used to say to Nicole and Ashley, if you're not ready to leave when I am, I will not wait for you. I will help you if I can, because you're a dear friend and I don't want to lose you, but you really need to learn to stand on your own two feet and be independent. If you put serious effort into getting a job and practicing whatever the hell you want to do and saving whatever you can, I'll help you. But I'm not your mother, and I have my own shit to worry about. Right now, I make you look rich. So you need to be an adult.
I'm sorry I lectured you, and I'm sorry that you feel as though everyone's trying to run your life, but if you want that to stop, you have to make it stop. Stop whining and being lazy, and just show everyone what you can do when you set your mind to it.
Or be a child forever and go no where. It's your choice. But if you choose to remain immature, I'd just like to warn you of one thing: my mother took that path, and now my entire family hates her for it. Please think about that.
