So far college life is complicated. My weekends consist of studying, taking online quizzes, plus making wonderful blogs. Making time for work, friends, and family of course is hair pulling frustration. My mom says mow the lawn I say why can't my lazy twenty year old brother do it which just leads to a family argument that gets me no where it seems. My mom, my sister, and I recently got home the day before I started college from California. During our vacation time my brother managed to move back in. I don't know if I would call it moving in, more like breaking and entering. The house was completely locked we thought, but apparently we thought wrong. He found a latter, climbed on top of the roof, opened the window of the play room, and before I knew it he had all his stuff back in what was once the guest bedroom. My mom always is saying her children mean the most to her which is clear to anyone who knows her. It just makes me want to scream sometimes, and don't worry I did at the top of my lungs, especially when that incident happened. I only enjoyed the quiet, always clean house for three or four months, definitely not long enough.
I have passed up so many opportunities lately that involve having fun. I am not sure if its due to the thoughts of getting behind in classes, missing out on the opportunity to make money at my job, or if I just don't feel like arguing with my boyfriend. He said we could go out and do things together, yet he never wants to do anything. He recently quit his job, even though he yelled at me when I didn't work enough, his car has been in the shop for four months too long, and doesn't know what college he wants to go to, when clearly he should just finish at Baker.
Yes life does suck. This is my third time at college to get my nursing degree. So as they say third time is a charm. It is really hard to make time for yourself when you have school, work, and family. My husband and daughter get left out so much cause all I do is work, homework, try to make it to my daughters volleyball games, and do house work. There for that does not leave alot of time for me and my family. But they understand that in the end it will pay off. So just stick in there and it will get better in the end. At least that is what I keep telling myself. Good luck!!!
