I was really excited to come home for the summer. Not just because I was going to be off about from school either. I really missed being at home, and I missed the family.
With that said, I have had a quite a disappointing time during my summer so far. My best friend is off in another state, and my other friends seem to be too busy. In short, it has been boring. I don't know, maybe it's partly my fault for it being the way it is. I'm not the most social guy, what AM I going to do?
On top of that, my parents are not helping. I'm 19 and they still treat me relatively the same way as they always have. Being condescending (at least from my point of view). With me being home all the time, I'm around them all the time. They make efforts to talk to me all the time, (got to admire the persistence) but what would we talk about? They primarily want to know what's going on in my life, but honestly all I can say is "not much." Nothing really personally exciting has happened to me for as long as I can remember. My whole life could easily be summed up by anyone. At least, that's how I feel.
They don't relate to me in any way. Although my personality is quite similar and is a good composite of both of my parents, my interests and theirs don't match at all. I don't see any of that changing in the future either. What's more, they seem to think my interests are quite bizarre (to them especially), which involves sports, videogames, and animation. They don't know the first thing about any of my interests (with the exception of sports, which is the only major interest my dad and I seem to share).
I mean, what to they do for fun? Why do they feel the need to bash things that I like when they don't even do anything in their spare time?
