So I'm home for winter break and it's New Years. I've been in school for three semesters now and made lots of friends, I came back home and well, it's like I don't have friends anymore. I mean I do, but just like I made friends when I went to school, my friends had moved on, they have made new friends and even though we may still be friends we don't have anything to do with each other.
It's so odd coming home, because it's almost like I'm living a double life. I have my school friends and my home friends, my school activities and my home activities, my school life and my home life. They are so different.
At home I have my friends from high school. Some of them have not changed at all and some have changed so much. They have all made new friends with people that I don't know, and because we are friends they try to include me, but I feel so awkward, and so out of place, that I've started to turn down the invitations.
At school I hang with my girls, I always have someone to watch movies with, go to the club with, hang out with, party with, or even to just study with. When I don't have someone to hang with I have something else to do, studying or working, or things with the house, or even volunteering. But home there is nothing, especially during winter break because there is no homework for me to do. There are no clubs, no where to go, nothing. It is like I'm on an island secluded from everyone that I know and hang out with. I'm just stuck.
At school my life is social, interesting, and a learning experience. At home it is a boring, secluded, mind numbing experience, I become a couch potato. Don't get me wrong I love coming back and seeing my family, but I have friends at school that have developed into a family.
Well, I have to get back to being a boring couch potato, but I hope that you've enjoyed reading.
