I am so excited that i finally got my first acceptance letter. There is one issue though it says i was accepted but it also says smoething about PENDING OFFICIAL FINAL TRANSCRIPT so i don't know if that means i really did get accepted or i'm still in the MAYBE section. But ok so i live in Florida and many people think its insane to go all the way to California just for college when quite honestly Florida colleges are extremly good too. Yes, it is real far away, and NO my family is not going to go with me. I have always been an independent type of person of course this does not in any way whatsoever mean that i'm not going to miss my family! I can already see myself being real bummed because i don't have my mom's home cooked meals anymore or my mom to wash my clothes or anything because to tell you the truth Im and extremly lazy person! I'm not even going to lie, I don't cook (HATE IT), I pretty much don't do anything in the house except for SOMETIMES take out the trash (i still believe that should be my little brother's job since he is THE BOY), and sometimes if i'm real nice i'll wash the dishes. Apart from that I don't do much at home but yes i will admit that at school I have always been involved but at this point thats not even important the important thing is that i'm going to have to do all those things my mom did for me, BY MYSELF. I actually see this as a positive experience...NOT! I'm going to have to EVENTUALLY cook for myself unless i live on campus for ever and get those awesome meal plans everybody is always talking about, and i'm going to have to wash my clothes ok i'm scared about that because i like my clothes and i seriously don't want them ruined thanks to my very amature skills with a washing machine. Seriously though, it doesn't have to be this bad. MAYBE just MAYBE it really IS a positive experience. I would have to learn MANY things by myself, can't deny that but also these are skills that everyone needs to know EVENTUALLY. Maybe I shouldn't freak out as much. Every one has to go through this....right? I'm going to go with yes just to make myself feel better! But the point of all this is that I'm going to california and living my life over there and never coming back! IF pending official final transcript means that i'm 100% in....

Start helping around your house, try cooking some simple meals and doing laundry for your family. Not only will they appreciate the help, but you can get some practice before you're on your own.
