Are These Emotions or Hormones?: A Story of a No-Longer-A-Teenage Girl

I feel angry right now. I'm not sure why. I'm just pissed off at the world. Mostly at my mom. And not for any real reason. I feel trapped. I want to talk to somebody, but I don't want to talk to anybody. I want to go to sleep tonight and wake up tomorrow morning and it's 2018 and I have an awesome job that I love and a cute little apartment in LA with my boyfriend and we have dogs and a cat and some fish and a view of the sunset over the Pacific through our tiny windows. I want to be responsible for myself. I want to have real choices. I want to choose who I spend my time with, not have social interactions thrust upon me by my parents. I hate being an inbetweener. I'm not a child or even a teenager anymore. But I'm not actually an adult yet. I still live with my parents; I'm still almost totally dependent on them for all of my needs. And trust me, I know how "blessed" I am to have grown up in the upper middle class and not to have needed to start working when I was 14 and all that jazz. I'm just ready for the next stage of my life to begin. Huh. I just realized how appropriate my vlog for this week is going to be.
