It has been quite a few days since I've written here. I kept on getting the reminders at all sorts of weird times. Sometimes late at night around 10 or 11 and sometimes even at 230 in the morning. But I will not solely blame the time I got the reminders for my absence. I let it slip my mind and in doing so, I did not write.
My situation has not changed much since the last time I wrote. I have been bombarded with work and last week was a complete nightmare for me. I had papers and midterms which and any way that I turned and had absolutely no time to breathe or even think. Come Friday night, I collapse in bed for 3 hours. I know I have the weekend ahead, a weekend where I should be doing some work or working on an application, but I know that I will take the weekend for myself. And I did.
My weekend was glorious. It was filled with catching up on TV and continuing a series my friend introduced me to. That was my whole Saturday, watching TV. Sunday I made a trip to visit some family followed by food shopping with parents. I forgot how fun that could be. I'm always the one who pushes the cart so it's always an adventure when I'm navigating through the sea of people that flock to BJs on a Sunday. I had not gone food shopping with family in a while but after Sunday, I might make the push to at least do that on the weekends.
I don't do a whole lot of things with my family. Even lesser things with school and work lately. The most interaction I get with them these days is saying hello to them when I get home from school or work, or someone telling me that the food is ready. I wish I was home more, another drawback of being a student and an employee.
It's always fun with them, everyone is their own character, and it's nice being in that type of environment. It's more fun now that I'm older, I'd say that they listen to me more and I can say I'm going to do things rather than ask for permission. I REALLY like that. Before, I would have to ask my parents for permission to go out. Nowadays, I just tell them when I'm going to do something, or they ask me if I have anything planned for a specific day. I like the way they treat me; like an adult. It was a long struggle to get here, but I am, and I'm enjoying it. So if anyone reading this is a teen or a pre-teen and they're in a struggle with their parents about going out and whatnot, it's a long waiting game. The time will come where you will be able to make your own decisions about what you do with your time. Trust me, I've been there.
