My Main Gripe With Responsibility

Since moving into my new house, my life has changed a great deal.

  • I've gone from spending nearly every waking moment on facebook to living without internet.

  • I've I've gone from never working over 28 hours/week to working over 45 hours/week.

  • I've gone from spending every evening in the company of friends to only seeing friends about once every three weeks.

But the biggest change for me, and the only change that I absolutely hate is this: I went from not having to wake up until 2pm on most days (granted I woke up much earlier than that, but 2pm was the absolute deadline for sleeping in) to having to be awake by 7am.

My mom's possibly greatest campaign in life has been to get people to go to bed early, and for the past two years she tirelessly told me that I needed to get on a "grown-up schedule." I love my mom, and a grown-up schedule definitely works for her, but in complete and total honesty, this grown-up schedule is depressing the hell out of me.

Does anyone have millions of dollars I could just inherit? I think I would make an excellent socialite.
