Growing up sucks... but amazing!

So a three day weekend is the greatest. Its such a great time to just relax. Every time i have this big of a break from work, I always promise myself that I will do my laundry. I never do. I find myself actually wearing everything I have until there is nothin left for me to wear. Its a sad thing. When i was on the mish, I would refuse to clean the dishes, and so me and my companion would eat off of one side of the plate, and then eat off the other side later, thereby doubling our plates capacity. I know... nasty. But hey, it worked! After a while i got the cleaning bug, and have had one ever since. I guess it comes with t he realization that when you are on your own you have to do EVERYTHING. I know that this is nothing new, and that someone has told me that I would be responsible for myself someday, I guess I just never wanted to accept that. I have been kinda keeping tabs on my maturity lately believe it or not, and have watched me take up the mom and dad responsibilities, and slowly become and adult. Its a good feeling to be independent, but at the same time I loved having someone take care of me.

School was a great teacher of this, but being home, I have kind of got lazy. Not extremely lazy, just a little lax in my habits. Not to freak out the only person that reads this, but I am a clean freak. Not to be confused with a germ freak. I like things clean and organized. I love a clutter free house and things in their places. It makes me feel like I'm in control some how, and I work and play, and relax so much better when I'm in a clean environment. But here's the thing, I'm finding my teenage self coming out and wanting to throw my crap on the floor and be lazy. (which I've been doing lately. Don't tell anyone !) Its a good thing, but when it comes time to clean i hate it! It is not fun at all, and cleaning things up at the time the mess is made is much easier.

I'm pretty close to being an adult. One of my big wake up calls that I was growing up was when i was packing my stuff up to go home from school, and I have a whole box for medicine and first aid stuff. I HAVE MY OWN MEDICINE CABINET! How disgusting is that! I guess all there to do now is school, marriage and babies. Ew. Not yet at least.

I have to work this thanksgiving. I work from 3 to 11pm, and my family is going out of town for the weekend so i will be all alone. It sounds sad, but I'm not too disturbed. I'm gunna have an early thanksgiving dinner with Skylers family, and so at least I'll eat with someone.

I'm thankful for my life and the path that it is on. I'm thankful for the amazing chance that I have to chose for myself the things that I want to do, and be what I wanna be. Life is amazing, and it is anything i want it to be!
