Sometimes I used to feel like such a loser...
Friend A: Hey lets go out friday!
Me: Sorry I have to go to church with my family
Friend B: Yo lets go to OC for the weekend!
Me: Sorry Im going hiking with my family
Friend C: What are you up to tomorrow?
Me: Sorry Im going on a picnic with my family
Friend D: Lets hit up this party!
Me: Sorry Im watching movies with my family
I used to feel like a loser cause I was always with my family doing "stupid family stuff" and not doing enough "cool things" with my friends. I used to feel super lame when I'd say im going to church instead of the hottest new party down the block (well not in bville.. bville sucks lol) but you get my point.
....... Sorry im playing boardgames with my family, sorry im eating lunch with my family, sorry im going out of town with my family, sorry im visiting more family with my family, sorry my family...
I used to feel like such a loser. Till this morning I realized - I love my family. I enjoy being with them. I enjoy spending time with them. And above all else they will ALWAYS come first to me. I'd pass on any party to spend a night sitting and talking with them. It's not something I should be ashamed of. Next time i'll proudly say im going out with my family on a picnic so i'll pass on that weekend to-to NYC...... (sad face).... (ahem)..... (this of course is a process and shall take time lol).
So today during this long labor day weekend - instead of going all out with my friends, I choose instead to go HIKING with my famalamz! <3
