I get it!! but do you?
People! What part of the phrase "I know" do you not understand?! Seriously, just because I choose to live a relaxed life style doesn't mean I don't know how to live a hectic one!

What good does it do me to be stressed all the time? To worry? To plan for thirty or forty or fifty years down the line when I can't tell you what is going to happen in the next five minutes?

I know that I need to get a drivers license. I just choose not to get it at this moment. People are so distrusting of people my age. They glare at them the second they get behind the wheel of a screaming metal death trap.

I KNOW so there is no need to tell me every second of every day. You do that and I will ignore.

I KNOW that I need to get a job but what would be the point? I would have to quit in a few weeks time so I can have my surgery.

I KNOW it's a possibility for me to put the surgery off until January but I do not want to do that. It will get in the way of school and crutches plus snow equals a very pissy aniki.

I want to get this thing out of the way so I can have my leg and life back.

What I want to do right now is focus on graduating high school, building a better GPA so I can get into a better college. I want a degree in library science but I want to study prenatal care, too. I'd be a third generation woman to do so but...it's interesting all the same.

*sigh* I'm growing up on my terms only. There is no need to tell me to grow up. I am.

This is probably the last thing you want to hear. but here it goes.

Put in the app for a job. most jobs will accomodate your surgery. I know kohl's will. they'll find stuff for you to do, while your healing. Seriously. Just put the apps out.
Drivers license. Yeah I know people dont trust us teenagers. but we cant rely on everyone else to give us rides everywhere. Its' part of becoming an adult. as scary as it is.
No one plans 50 years down the road. just plan for your immedeate future. Secure a job, get driving, get through school. stressing is a part of life angie.

It all boils down to this. We cant rely on people our entire lives. In truth. its You against the world. Everyone else has their own problems to deal with, though they will attempt to help you through yours. In the end, the only person you can truly rely on fully is yourself.
