Changes: The Inevitable Storm

It's been a while, but now I'm back. Been a lot of new changes since my last post, but that was so long ago that I'll only tell you the stuff I remember. I recently made a big life choice. I stopped attending college and moved out of my parents house...and town. I now live 250+ miles away from home with a close friend. We share the rent, the electric, and the grief that comes with living together, but he's a good friend and I can't see not having him as a friend. I love living away from home, but being an adult sucks. I have a nice job as a cashier at Sears, a $10,000 total on my college loans, and just enough money to pay the bills. I would have no money to pay bills but thanks to my term with Americorps, I have an Education award that takes care of the loan payments for a while.

I miss my family. It's good to talk to them on the phone every once in a while, but it's great to be able to see them. Skype helps, but it's not the physical contact that I crave so much. Such a spoiled childhood was mine compared to others. One thing that really sucked about living away from home is that fact that my job kept me from going home for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I hated the feeling of knowing that my family missed me so on those days, as well as the empty feeling in my stomach from not getting turkey and ham.{lol} But in life we must make sacrifices for the betterment of ourselves and the ones closest to us. I think the ones I miss most of all are my nieces and nephew. It tears my heart apart every time I have to leave them. To miss the precious years of them growing up is too much for me sometimes. I go home to find them bigger and smarter and I wonder where the time has gone.

Still looking for that wife and kids. This section will be very short because I have no dating life really. No prospects, no winks, but plenty of hot married women. I don't know where these guys find these women. And then, as if it's not enough to be with them, they turn into scum and let them go. I come across these women all the time. Their husband/boyfriend leaves at the first sight of trouble or kid, and high-tail it out of there. They don't care for these women's feelings. They don't care that the woman and child they leave behind can't support themselves. They just look out for themselves. That's horrible. No one should be put through pain like that. And how do you think it will effect the children? Not positively, that's for sure. My point is that some women out there deserve better than what they settle for.

Oh well, I guess I'd better get off of here for now. I promise there will be more rants on the way this year. Be good, Everyone.
