I AM DIFFERENT!
I always knew that when I was constantly the odd one out. The one who wasn't included in the conversation. The one who was always in her thoughts no matter how many people surrounded me. All my friends were the same.
Full of laughter, fun, excitement. Their parents allowed them to sleep out, drink and even date. I was the one who was restricted, who never made it to the events we planned because I wasn't allowed to leave. I would listen to how they had fun over the weekend, wishing I could also be there.
I hated it. I still hate it. I mean I am 17, I should have a sleepover once. I should dance at 20:00 while staring at the stars at least once. Make the best out of teenage life, right? I want to and I really wish I could.
My friends had all the privilege I didn't have. Understanding parents who were lenient. I don't have that. I have to sneak around in order to have a good time and boy, am I tired of it?
Is it okay to live like this? No, but my independence is coming soon. The independence I craved since childhood, is coming.
I want to make good memories too, just like my friends could.
