living on my own


Procrastinating on my process analysis paper, so I’m going to write my blog.

When we moved into out apartment, it was just the beginning of summer break.

Since we didn’t have school, Anselma and I just spent our free time at our place. I was still working over 40 hours, but had my nights off so I started watching Netflix. I watched the entire season of Weeds, Sons of Anarchy, Don’t trust the b in apartment 23, Drop dead diva, GCB, Greek, Gossip girl, Tosh.0, Jane by Design, about 5 more I cant think of and started Pretty Little Liars. We didn’t have cable.

I didn’t really get out of the apartment much because after work I just wanted to rest. Hence all the tv shows I watched. My best friend Courtney had a boyfriend so she was unavailable most of the time, Danielle just had a baby she had her hands full and Anselma worded almost twice as much as me. So I stopped going out and having fun. My life had become even more boring. I had gone from party girl to working housemother.

I’m starting to see that living by yourself isn’t just paying your own bills. It’s doing your own grocery shopping, cooking your own food, doing the dishes, laundry, cleaning, and other housework. I did do all of this at my parents but my mom helped. It seemed like even thou I live with 3 other people I still have a lot of cleaning to do.

One random after noon that Anselma, Daniel and I had off we went to the animal shelter. We were looking for a cat, but instead found a dog. We all fell in love with her, Lady. She is a jack rustle/ mini greyhound. She is a very complicated dog.

I’ll write all about her in my next blog.

  1. Welcome to the joys of growing up. It is hard at times, boring at times and great at times. I went about 7 months without cable once. During that time I rented probably every movie the video store had available.
