How I did it: I stopped living with my parents and no longer had their emotional support, i had to deal with this and realised that now my life could be what i made of it as oppose to it being dictated and decided for me. This took me ages to get used to. Now i can slowly start sorting my life out and the expectations that i meet will be my own, nobody can now put pressure on me except me.. Instead of being lazy i must now work on making the most of my potential and show the world what i am capable of. Read how I did it… 7 months ago

I wanted to leave work early today but didn’t. I was n a bad mood because I didn’t hear back about my apr and while I was online I saw a pic of chocolate turtles and it made me want to clock out, get n my car, stop by the store and get a big box o them. Then I’d go home n the middle of the day, get n my jammies, lie under the covers and dive into those bad boys. 8 months ago

goal, but in a month I have had to do some serious growing up. I moved out of my parents house after a massive fight and now I am coming to terms with not having a relationship with them. I have moved in with my sister until I become a bit more stable emotionally and this gives me time to sort stuff out and also save up for a place. 9 months ago

Letting go
My friend is returning home to another country. I was never good at leaving or being left. I’m not really at staying in touch. I wonder what will happen to the friendship. I regret the things we didn’t get to do. I’m trying to not get stressed or down about this unnecessarily. This was expected. Change is a part of life. I should meet this challenge with grace. 11 months ago

at home with my family, I feel like I am growing up. I feel ashamed to say that I was a bit of a brat before. I guess sometimes you need to step back and look at a situation from other peoples perspectives. I am getting on a bit better with my parents now, why? Just because I am making more effort. I live in their house so I should make more of an effort. I only used to do the bare minimum before but now I am doing more around the house, contributing as much as I can financially and just sitting down with them and asking how they are. Its the little tiny things that make a difference. 15 months ago
