sometimes the hardest things in life are the things we have to do

WOOO only 12 days until i get to move in. im so happy to be living back up in the cities. i feel at home there. lots of really nice memories and stuff over the past year, what with being at school with people and being with andrew.

hopefully this summer will be the last that i am living at home. its been extremely crappy. im going to have to cite irreconcilable differences with my parents. namely, we dont agree on much anymore. that would be ok, except that their way of dealing with our disagreements is to try to force me to think the way that they do. and i just wont take it anymore.

do i love and respect my parents? yes, of course. but living with them and having to wake up everyday to criticism and go to sleep with it still resonating in my ears is no way to live. in order to save my relationship with them, its really not a good idea for me to live here anymore.

i have tried to breach the subject of forcing me to agree with them a couple of times, but they just get confused and i get frusterated. i hope to save my brother from the situation that i'm in, but something tells me he won't have this problem.

my plan is to possibly nanny for my aunt next summer, and then internship in the cities for the one after that. or at least live up there and find a job up there too. i should be able to find some sort of place to live, even if i were to rent out a room from friends.

ANYwho. i am super looking forward to school, even if it means that i do have to super-buckle down. a-'s all the way! thats the goal. we'll see how well i do. i also have to work a ton to earn money, and donate plasma on the side. if anyone would like to donate with me, i expect to be going 2 times a week. $45 dollars baby. :)
