My Freedom...My Life...

I guess I sometimes take advantage of this blog as something more of a diary, rather than an actual blog but, I don't really believe anyone is actually listening to what rocked my world, so I feel comfortable doing so. Not to mention, I could care less what others think (putting aside my sensitivity).

First, Starting off on my freedom. I love my immediate family, to some degree of course. But, I also love my independence and hate authority. Having been in college for about a year I was very satisfied with being able to tell Myself what to do. Now I return to having report where I will be, what time I come back, and God Forbid it's a guy and I am not back by 9 PM... There's very few people who I want caring for me any longer, and I will take up the next opportunity to leave and be on my own. My heart aches for freedom while everyone tells you to "slow down" or "don't grow too fast"... Yeah, maybe kids should not grow up so fast, but I am telling you the way people parent these days, sometimes gives us no choice. I know many of the kids from my generation and probably even more now are all LatchKey. And personally I enjoyed it. I liked coming home to not hearing anything from anyone.

I guess there is something glamorous to me about doing everything for yourself and I don't understand how some people can live off freebies and such. Don't get me wrong, I would not take a few here and there if I was a celebrity (though it makes no sense to me because they are more than capable of purchasing their own products), and I most certainly cut out coupons. But there is just something good about doing it all!

I think this is all I want to discuss, though much less than I truly wanted.
