this is my life

My attempt in this post is not to complain, but to simply expose the facts of my life.

I want so bad for my life to change soon, so soon. I started tutoring, it wasn't what I expected it would be. I'm putting in less hours, I talked the boss into paying me more, still the bare minimum for the private-multiple-subject tutoring/babysitting/therapy I'm doing.

My family has never been extremely well-off. Since living here, my dad has always been the sole financial provider and he has given us a comfortable yet limited life, covering the necessities and small luxuries here and there. I am definitely spoiled, but the money is never enough, this makes me sound so materialistic, I swear to you I'm not. Since moving to the U.S. I had to learn to not ask for everything I wanted/saw, not so easy as a child who grew up an only child for nine years. I have learned the difference between necessity and want, and I am constantly keeping myself in check. Being 24 is presenting itself to be quite the challenge given my circumstance. This is simply another challenge I will conquer, it's difficult, like all challenges in life. Well, like life.

I'm just putting it out there, sharing something about my life. I know I'm not the only one worrying about money right now. Let me just say that if I didn't have my parents I have no idea where or who I would be. I am so grateful they are who they are, have made me who I am and have given me this life.

May the good fortune that lies ahead be near. Thanks for following.

MUCH LOVE!!!
