I know almost every recent college grad has had this earth shaking event happen to them where we seem to regress back to our teenage years living in the same room we grew up in...well most of us do...me I moved back into a room I have only known for 5 months of my life and a town I have only spent summers and christmas breaks in for 3 years....
Most of you will move back to the town you grew up in and get to see friends from the past and familiar hang outs.....moving out of the town I grew up in was bittersweet....the town sucked....literally awful town...but I never see the people I grew up with and I had a lot of adults in my teen years that supported me that I am sure think I fell off the face of the earth...and then this new town I have barely known is much better overall with amount of things to do and see and I made new friends at my fav place to volunteer at.
But really why is it that we as mostly 22 year olds get home and regress back to our teen years of doing chores and being worried about what our parents say? yes I live under their roof, but I did live on my own for 4 years and can manage my life. I am not saying I am gonna sit my bony butt on the couch all day and do nothing I do help with some chores...but I dont like lists.....
Not everything is bad about living with the rents...or in my case my mom...she pays for my food and buys me treats from the store....twizzlers...yum. AND I have a movie buddy to go with now!
But I just have to try to hold my temper for a week and a half and then I move out to Minnesota....for you grads who are home a little longer....or a lot longer.....just remember it may be awful...but its free housing!
GOOD LUCK TO ALL MY FELLOW GRADUATES!!!!
