65

Well back in Columbus and pretty excited about that.  I was glad to be home for a couple of days but I am so free up here whereas I was being told what I could do before I even made it home.  That is probably my favorite thing about college.  Just the freedom.  I had very strict rules in high school and I never broke them because if I did I would never have any kind of a social life.  This only had to be proven once because the  one time I did break a rule I lost any kind of privileges for almost a month.  Any time I went from one place to another I would have to call my parents and once I got there I would have to call them again and if it was at one of my friends’ houses I would have to call from the home phone so they knew I was where I said I was.  Pretty ridiculous right?  My curfew was midnight and randomly my parents would change that and make me come home early.  Now I can go wherever I want, hang out with my friends whenever, get back to my dorm whenever.  My friends from college laugh at all the stupid rules I had and the different stories where I got in trouble and it was a completely innocent thing to get grounded for.  Then they tell me their stories of things they did and never got in trouble.  Not fair for me then but now I can live my life how I want to live it.

  2. I understand living under strict rules but I started to challenge them when I was in high school and got more priveledges for doing so. But that could have easily gone the other way too. I am glad you have your freedom now! It is wonderful isn't it?

  3. My parents never really had super strict rules they were all about trust. But then again I told them everything so they didn't really need to worry.
