    Mimi the art of doing nothing

    Oct 23, 2015
    I was 20, decided to go on a holiday and just never came home.

    It was the best decision I made and I wish I had of done it earlier.

    Left home at 16. Was able to finish high school and had an apartment with my girlfriend by 17. It wasn't exactly easy street, but I knew and wanted to prove I could do it. That said, I will never allow my children to do the same.

    Don't do it if you can stay and life is good at your family home. You'll regret a s-----y appartment. Stack some money.

    Live with my Dad, I could move out after this school year, or even now, but I think I'll stay after I graduate because of the situation at home. I want to be there to help since I have 3 younger siblings, 2 being in school and 1 only going to be two in February.

    After my mom found my weed he got in my face and said I was a f---in loser that would never amount to anything. So I called him out on him f---ing my mom while my parents were still married (which was true) and that made him snap and attack me. My mom called the cops and I wound up getting charged with "harassment" and getting a fine because he had busted lips and I had no injuries.

    Me and my mom are very good now. She's the best grandmother I could ask for for my kids, infact she's more of a mother to them then their biological mother is. Me and my step-dad get along now too surprisingly.

    She did apologize to me for it years later when I was like 25. She changed her ways big time after I moved out. She allowed my little brother and sister to have keg parties on her property whereas I wasn't even allowed to listen to rap.

    Do not live on my own until I get married.

    Once I turned 18 I told my dad I'd like to live on my own, he gave me a death stare & said "what the h--- do you think we are.. American?!" We do live in America, dad :/ lol

    It's going to be cool the first few weeks, but after a few months you'll probably wish you'd still be sleeping in that cosy bed safe in momma's house without all those life responsibilities and those bills to pay. If you have the chance, i'd wait it out a bit to be comfortable and well off with your money. But a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do,
