Change?

Now that I am on break I have a chance to think about all that has changed just because I have started college. I have changed over that past few months.
Last thanksgivings break I hung out with my friends and boyfriend, never home but only to sleep. Even on thanksgiving day I was home when the food was done and left when I was done eating.
This thanksgiving is different I'm having dinner at my own house that I live with my boyfriend. I'm spending time with my parents and my boyfriends dad and step mom. Its all about family now.
Now I don't spend much time with friends. I have other more important things to do than to be with my friends all the time. I have home work, studying, and family. Even though I do spend time with friends sometimes when my time is free. I think I have become more responsible now that I am in college. I actually do the assignments and study. I'm happy to do those things now that i'm in college since Its actually for my future. I put the more important things that need to be done before that less important. I also think about my future a lot. I try to do what will be positive for my future and my career. I take more resposiblity for my home. I don't live with my parents anymore. I have to do the dishes, laundry and clean. I even have to take care of my cat and mow the grass. I have to cook supper for my boyfriend and I. Witch cooking has been an experience in itself. ha!

The worst thing so far....

The worst thing so far about college is that my friends and I have drifted apart. We were the closest three girls in our high school. We never went anywhere without one another. The only time we were apart was when we were with our boyfriends. We had so many inside jokes about many different things that no one could understand. We would laugh randomly and every one would stare. We have been best friends since 7th grade.

One reason how we drifted apart is that they went to Pittsburgh for college. I stayed home to stay close to my boyfriend. Plus there was no trade school that I could go to do what I want to do with my life. Those two went the same path and I didn't. They don't come home often and when they do they mostly spend time with their families. I only saw them one weekend they came home out of 6.

Another reason why we drifted apart is because I currently have a crappy phone. It won’t let me text anyone that doesn’t have the same phone as me. Well it does let me text them but it comes up weird. If I would say “ hey, how have you been?” the text will read on their phone “Hey it’s a nice day to mow.” It’s frustrating that I can’t keep up with my friends.
