It's Just Another Day...

If you read my last blog, then you know things are changing alot now. I'm in the process of finding a place to live and whatnot. I HATE MOVING! It's so time-consuming. The difference this time is that I'll be moving alone. That means I got alot of things to get. I didn't want to do this, but it's definitely the right thing. Living by myself means I can have who I want over whenever I want. Richard can come and stay with me now and I won't have to worry about it being a problem. I have almost everything I need. I have a friend who is giving me a futon for a couch. It's actually the best thing because now I have a place for people to sleep. I also have my cousin who's giving me a toaster. Might not seem like a big deal, but it is when you don't have the money to buy things. The only things I really need now are bathroom things and kitchen dishes and stuff. My father has graciously told me he'd help me with all of that. Oh, and he's going to give me the verizon card so that way I'll have internet and won't have to pay for it. How sweet of him. I love him to death.

I guess this leads to the next thing. In case you didn't realize, me and my dad have sort of drifted apart. I didn't mean for it to happen, but about 10-11 months ago, everything just sort of went downhill and I'm just now feeling like it's getting better. Things have been strained between us. I didn't like it, but I feel like last night  was a good start over point. He treated me like an adult which is all I've really wanted. It's what I needed and I think he realizes that now. I needed him to accept me for me and let me live the life I wanted. I think I got that last night. It's nice.

Also, I'm getting closer to my mom. Yes, she still drives me crazy most of the time, but she's not treating me like a child anymore. She's accepting me for who I am too which is awesome. I talked to her about things yesterday that I normally wouldn't have before. I guess it's nice knowing she won't go into panic mode about it.

I guess you can say I'm changing. Despite what you think, these are good changes. I'm not going to let people walk all over me anymore. I'm going to do what makes me happy whether you like it or not. I'm going to be me. I'm going to do what I think is right. You may hate me for it, but I don't really care. I'm not here to please you.
