I've Been Thinking

I never thought I'd be 24 still living at my parents house. I never thought that I wouldn't be able to start college like I had planned at 17 due to financial problems. I never thought I'd be in college at 24. I never thought all of my "friends" would abandon me. I never thought this would be my life.

That sounds really grim, sorry you're having to endure it. Sadly, friends come and go, from my experience: right through life, there are very few that will remain for more than 5 or 6 years.

thanks, funny thing is, my last "friend" from high school never responded to my text to her that I would in fact be graduating from the community college. That hurt.

@iamnikki: yeah, that would :(

Well, there's a whole new world in front of you, waiting to find out how wonderful you are, so there's that.

@firefall: Thanks

this prolly wont really help, but ... life is erratic, life doesn't actually obey the signposts of 'how it's meant to go'. Most everyone veers off from that idealised path, at some point (or more than one).

Yes, that is true
