Adult hood for me will come in the form of transfering cross country and living in NM( there are some details and reasoning left out. i primarily stand on my on two feet when it comes to financing living expenses, tuition, loans, etc. But my new jersey parents ( i also have new mexico parents) Have had to start paying off one of my loans this past year for college. i know they don’t want me to leave, nor do they think it’s up to me. but i have to pay them back some money because honetsly, if it came down to it, they would expect the money back.grrrr.. i’m leaving out bits and pieces and tired arguments, but we’ll see how long i can stand it in jersey living with them. 20 is fast approaching, tminus 3 months and i have no control. I should.

i’ve decided that all the walking i do in the city should count especially since i don’t have a car.yay me. oh.. as well as tackling endless flights of stairs.
so i think i can say that i have accomplished this goal. After christmas break when i went back to my apartment my roomate and i cancelled our subscription after our other roomate moved out. i haven’t had tv for a couple months running now and when i come home except for really good movies i can’t watch it, it’s ridiculous. not having it has been great.
however, animal planet is on in the background while i do homework right now back home in new jersey
