Another day, another dollar, ugh I wanna quit. I clocked out, got into my car and drove home. My life is pretty boring, I get up, go to work, go home, deal with my stupid family and repeat the process everyday. Nothing crazy or adventurous happens in my life, after college I decided to go back home and just get a cashier job.

I got home, took off my shoes and headed down to the basement to my bedroom. "Hey honey, you home?" My mom called out. "Yes I am, just going to my room" I replied. "Okay, dinner will be ready soon" "okay mom" I went into my room and shut the door. My mom is always trying to put on a face for people so they don't see how she really is.

Ever since she got married to that alcoholic, her whole attitude and personality changed. She always takes his side even when he's in the wrong. I can tell she's also to scared to stand up to him because she's afraid to be lonely but at the same time, you'd think she'd defend her own daughter against him.

I put on music, laid in bed and dosed off. I woke up sometime later and went to go get food from the kitchen. After I ate I went back to my room and fell asleep. My alarm went off at 7 in the morning, so I got up and got ready for work. I headed out the door, got in my car and left.

I just want to leave, leave this job, leave that toxic house and leave this town. I got to work, clocked in and started my day. It was the same old boring day, dealing with rude ass customers. Once it was time for me to get off, I went in the back, clocked out and left my work. As I got home I saw that my step dad was home.

I walked in and heard my mom and step dad arguing with each other, as always. It was probably about something stupid but they wouldn't understand how stupid it is because they are always drinking. I went straight to my room and put on music. I didn't want to hear them bitch at each other.

I turned on the TV and it was on the news. It was talking about a gruesome murder that happened a few towns near me. Apparently it was a single body that was torn to shreds in a small home. I changed the channel to some chick flick college movie. I do miss college, at least their I had people to hangout with and be myself.

Plus I had a really good friend in college as well, he was funny and random. We would hangout alot whenever we didn't have classes. Though when he got a girlfriend it seemed fine at first but after a week, I got a bad vibe from her. Then slowly we stopped hanging out, until eventually we lost contact.

I turned off the TV and could still hear my mom and step dad arguing, so I turned on music and just played on my phone. I want to get out of this house, maybe I'll go somewhere far away from here.
