“I would find songs and they would totally save me. It was just me alone, in my bedroom, dancing by myself, wearing weird clothes. Now I do it on stage, but I had a lot of practice.”

I have dark brown hair and I look like me. (:
Not in the sense that things are important to me, am I materialistic. I mean in the sense that, I’ve become so concerned with how much I don’t have and what other people have that it’s making me come across in the completely wrong way.
I, like most people my age, were sold the “dream.” The dream that, if you work hard all your life, get your grades, go to university, get your qualification that you will get a great paying job, have your own house and car and independence.
But then the recession happened, and I’d managed to study such a specific subject that it’s become almost impossible to get a job in what I’d like to do. I’m currently working part-time; another downer, I generally can’t survive on part time pay. Actually, I can survive just about, just I feel so dependent on my mum for the most part still that I’m really bitter about my current job. Yes I’m lucky for even having a job. But in my mind, I was going to graduate from uni, get a great paying job, finally move out, finally buy myself a car, finally settle all of my debts and be completely independent. But obviously life just hasn’t worked out like that. And because my dream hasn’t become a reality, I’ve started to become ever so bitter about it.
I’m constantly looking at what my friends have and I don’t. How they can afford to do/buy things and I can’t. Eventually being so self-centered you end up ignoring the fact that your friends work so damn well hard for what they get and it’s just not your turn at the moment. At the moment I feel bad so always making money such an issue. Yes- it is an issue, but it only becomes a bigger issue if you make it so.
I never used to care about money at all, but that was when I knew I was financially safe. I need to stop lashing out at my friends and family though. I’m not pissed off because they may be doing more/have more than I do, I’m just pissed off at myself for not trying harder to make my life different.
I hate money.
I need to stop using the phrase “I” and start thinking of the bigger picture that includes everyone.
