OK I hate to talk about myself. When I was in HS I was a spoiled bit**. I hung out with the "popular" people, went to all the parties, talked about people, ect, and was someone I later hated.
Now I will say I was spoiled badly. I got the new car in HS, had clothes anytime I wanted something new, had an allowance, and never had a job.
When I came to college I got a reality check. I learned I wasnt the shi* and I needed to change my attitude. I am so glad I did cause I hate who I was in HS and how I acted now that I look back. That being said, in college, my parents paid for my school, insurance, rent, sorority dues, cell phone bill, I even had a credit card that went to them to pay. I did finally get a job which my mom was against so Id have spending money, but I am so glad I did. It taught me some responsibility. I am greatful that they did that for me. I was fortunate to get a very nice trust fund from my dad, but we dont even speak much and after all he did to my mom and me while I grew up, I feel like its the least he could do. He never offered to pay for my private school or even college when I went so its nice to have this money now when I need to buy a home or something.
I am now married and in charge of everything. Ill admit it scared me a ton and worried me a lot when I was to be the adult cause I never realized exactly how much things were. Thankfully I dont have a student loan to pay and I wills tart to pay my car insurance in Aug but my mom sat me down and showed me to budget and such so even if I think the utility bills are huge, I have adjusted well.
I am glad my parents helped me as much as they did and I love that I can ask if I ever need any help and they will, but I feel like its time I do things on my own and hopefully oneday Ill be able to pay them back for all they have done for me. I am very apprecitive of all they did.
