I hate that I feel some sort of hatred or jealousy towards me friends. They get to go to universities that are paid for by their parents or federal aid. They got to move out and have their independence. I hate that I want to leave my home so badly. I hate that I have to work so much to pay for my OWN education and have to stress over money while THEY get to live in dorms, away from parents, and all they have to worry about is classes. I don’t hate them, but something about the comparison makes me feel mad. I’m stressed and I feel like I’ll never make enough to reach my goal. I love my parents but I hate the idea of staying under their roof any longer than necessary.
