Feliz Navidad

[burningblues]

The holidays are very hard for me now. I don't get the same nervous excitement for Christmas like I did when I was a child. It doesn't help that my family lacks the nostalgic feeling of celebrating time together. My step-mother, for instance, refuses to purchase anything I want, leaving me with the feeling that A) She doesn't know me, and B) She

I apologize for being a disappointment. Perhaps you would like to try another planet?

hahahahah *falls on the floor laughing*

baby, whoever you are:

So I know how you feel, and I TOTALLY see myself on the same road that you are on, it’s crazy! I come home, and its not like I live that far away, but four and half hours is like traveling back in time, SERIOUSLY

Thanks for such a long warming message! Its nice to know there are others like me feeling the same right now. This transition process is very annoying and since I always want everything in my life to happen immediately, I tend to want to fast forward past this stress. I really think the way of living through it is finding your own contentment in spite of not having a permanent place
