I hate being an adult in today's society.
I hate the pressure to get a job, get money, pay bills, go to school.
I hate that healthcare is expensive, that I can't go to the doctor about
my stomach hurting, my teeth getting worse, the small bump on my eye and my ear.
I hate that I was pressured into going to University to get a career,
but the first three years were spent frantically running around,
like a chicken with its head cut off - or so the saying goes.
I feel trapped in responsibilities that I have no control over.
Five years of tuition debt, thousands upon thousands of dollars,
and I have no idea what it will feel like when I finally pay it off.
The stupid water bill that was mailed out on the first, supposedly,
but still has not come to me and it's been two weeks so now I'll owe more money
for something I could not possibly control.
Sometimes I want to hop on a plane and go anywhere else,
but running from this is not freedom. At some point, I'll have to stop and do it all again.
