Coming home for the summer and trying to go back to your old life for before college for a few months is an adjustment in itself because you're such a different person after experiencing college. Adding in living with your parents again after being used to go wherever you please whenever you please. Being in this position for the first time I thought I'd share with you a few of the thoughts that have gone through my head so far.
1. Am I supposed to buy this for myself or no?
This happens every time I go out to eat or need to get something at the store, because I'm at that stage where I'm an adult but not really at the same time and I don't have the money to pretend I'm an adult either.
2. Should I tell my parents where I'm going?
I'm not sure what the rules are at home now but at school I had no one trying to keep tabs on me.
3. Am I suppose to have a curfew?
I'm sure the rules have changed since I was in high school but am I suppose to be home at a certain time because I'm not used to that either.
4. I do not want to go to work anymore.
So far that's all my summer has consisted of because being a broke college is not really work out so well.
5. There's nothing to do in this town anymore.
Maybe in high school it was really fun to go to a friends house and just hang out. but after you go to school and see what else is out there, it is not fun at all.
6. I wanna go back to school already.
I wanna go back to school because of the social aspect of it but not have any classes, i'm pretty sure that's every college kids dream though.
7. How fast I can finish a Netflix series?
The only thing to do is to watch Netflix, that is when I'm not slaving away at work.
8. Summer is not what I expected it to be.
Summer used to be a carefree fun time, however the older you get the more responsibilities you have and things you need to get done instead of just relaxing with your homies.
9. Home cooked meals are very underrated.
Its amazing how much you can take for granted a home cook meal until you don't have one for months on end.
10. I miss seeing my friends everyday all the time.
I wish I could just walk a few minutes and being chilling with my besties instead of being hours away from them. However distance does make the heart grow fonder.
