Sometimes you play board games for so long your neck gets kinked.
Sometimes you say goodbye to one of your best friends by hugging him really fast
and running away, then on the way home you pull over
because you can't see the road anymore.
Sometimes you get stood up by a high schooler and feel worse than you would have
if it was someone your age.
Sometimes you don't remember what it was like to have butterflies.
Sometimes you wonder what would happen if you just didn't go to college anymore.
Then remember how much debt you're putting you and your parents in.
{And how uncomfortable it would be to explain to a date that you still live with your parents}
Sometimes you yell in your car because you're sick of things being taken from you
over and over and just wish for anything stable.
Sometimes you miss your own big room at home.
Sometimes you say every ugly word you can to yourself when people assume
you're having the best time of your life in college.
Sometimes you read depressing blogs like this one and roll your eyes
thinking how dramatic they are.
And sometimes you can't write anything pretty because you're just so tired,
and getting it all out is the only way you're going to sleep.
But sometimes you don't.
Lucky you
