Moving Out!

I was the one that decided that I wanted to move far far away from family to start my own life. I felt like I was restricted when I was home, always needed to ask my parents for permission but since I have been away at college I don't have the restriction. I wish I sometimes do though. I have found myself in trouble a few times this year and I know I wouldn't be in trouble if I still had my parent's restrictions.

I learned in my Lifespan development class that the years for adolescence and early adulthood are blurred. But what I noticed is that the "stages"act pretty similar. An adolescent wants to make their own decisions and to rebel against their parents. The beginning of early adulthood is finding who you are which in turn means making your own decisions and hoping for the best. Some decisions I have made are the best ones I could have made and make me happy....others though just make me feel pretty stupid.

I have 31 days left of my first year at college and I am going to miss it alot!!! I am not going to miss 2 roommates in particular but I wish I were still going to be living with Amanda, Lexi and Jana! I miss my family though. I was looking through my friend's pictures on facebook and she has one or two friends from high school with her in college. I have none. I have had to find my own place here and try to fit in. I am still working on that but hopefully I will sometime soon.

In the meantime, moving away was one of the worst and best decisions I have ever made. I miss my family and still need some guidance but I have also grown quite alot!
