It's weird.. as much as I've been down lately 'cause of things with my parents, I'm actually really happy with things right now. Sure the fighting with them on a pretty much daily basis sucks.. but I think the reason I'm happy is because I'm not doing what they want me to do, but what will make me happy. It feels like such an accomplishment to say "no, this is what I want."

Anyone who knows me knows that I tend to get pushed around and talked into things and that I do things to make other people happy sometimes because I don't want a confrontation. Well I'm done with that. I'm doing things to make myself happy, because let's face it, I'm not gonna make everyone happy, so the most important thing it to be happy with what I'm doing and to be able to look at myself in the mirror and feel good about the decisions I've made.

So far, for the most part.. I do feel good about what I'm doing with my life. I'm going back to school in January, I have a job at Charlotte Russe that has the potential for benefits if I were to become full time, I'm gonna check into living on campus so that I can live on my own... I'm finally becoming my own person... rather than someone my parents can control and tell what to do. Don't get me wrong, I love my parents and I respect them and all that.. but it's just time for me to get on with my own life and live the life I decide to lead.

Okay.. time for me to finish laundry and maybe take a little nap before shopping tonight... I'm all stuffy today.. stupid weather. I'm sure I'll have an update on my adventures at Wayne State tomorrow. :)
