wtf i am sick of staying at home

[theNEOone]

um, i don't see the problem. you act as if there's nothing in the world you could possibly do besides sit in front of your dual monitors for the next 10 days and whine on ATOT. get the fvck off your ass and go do stuff with your friends, outside, grab yourself a last minute summer fling, etc. problem solved.

my friends are all ibankers and have started work in nyc. my work starts 7/31. my parents moved from nyc to nj once i had gone off to college, so it's not easy for me to get into the city anymore either. in fact, my day goes downhill pretty much after my run in the morning. i just bum around, read books. i guess i really want to move into my apt and have work start.

i guess it's kind of my fault that i am not working at a bulge bracket bank because i screwed around for the first 3 years of college.

look, i know you guys are saying i am spoiled etc etc. but the truth is, i have never really had a good relationship with my parents, and i am more independent of them than anyone else. all i want to do now is to get out and live my own life. i don't need them to tell me when to go to bed, or what to do with my time, tell me to drink water, and a whole a lot of other things. i am going through enough problems now as it is.

So, who paid for this "excellent school" from which you graduated?

i was waiting for you to show up in this thread. yes my parents paid for my schooling, but not before i lost the battle to borrow money to do it myself, afterall, i only needed 80k total for the 4 years, and i paid 25k by myself, so i only needed to borrow 55k.

Whiny kid much?

Here's a novel idea. Spend some quality time with your parents. Since they just saved you $55, 000 and have paid for most of your life so far, why don't you tell them you appreciate everything they have done to get you to the point where you are an independent self-sufficient man with a career and then take them out to a REALLY nice dinner.

EDIT:

I am moving out, in fact in about 10 days! but i can't stand it anymore!!!!!!!!!

i know what you are saying, but the truth is that that never really happened for me. when it did happen, it's usually very brief, like lasting less than 5 minutes.

something will happen in your life and you'll want them for comfort/advice. you'll miss them if they aren't available.

but the thing is, i have never gone to parents for advice. i saw a psychologist all 4 years of college. it's freaky, but i cant remember the last time i talked to my parents in my own volition.

I find it helpful in my mechanical engineering research because I need to monitor several variables at once in several running programs. I have digitial data acquisition, but it doesn't help me control the process in real-time quite like human interaction.

my research involved using GIS softwares and statistical softwares, not to mention a whole a lot of pdfs, articles open. plus, it's just easier to get organized. but the dual-monitor incident is only a symptom, not the crux of the problem.

As long as you're under their house, you play by their rules. You'll understand when you have kids of your own. You ever think about the kids born to crack addicted parents or parents so poor that these kids have never lived inside a home? Their are a lot of kids that have spent their entire life living in homeless shelter

what are you trying to say? that i should be thankful?

I agree with bennylong. It's their house, and they don't have to let you live there. Suck it up. It'll be over soon enough. When you get older and lose your parents, you'll wish you spent more time with them.

It's amusing how set in their ways people can get. Like recently, there's been a bit of a plumbing issue at home - a supply hose for a faucet in the basement came loose, so that sink is out of commission until *gasp* tomorrow. My dad's just after me, "Isn't there anything you can do to fix it right now?" It's just not worth the trouble! We're going in town tomorrow, and we can stop at a hardware store then. (It's a 20 mile round trip drive to the nearest one, not worth the trip just for that.)
Better yet, in the very next room over from this sink, is a bathroom. With a sink.

When there's nothing major left to complain about, people always find the littlest things, and make them big. Back to the faucet - with the junky old one removed, and a shiny new one in its place, my mom's now got it in mind to "tidy up" the rest of the room to match the new faucet. Seriously.

But hey, you've not even 2 weeks left to deal with this stuff. I don't know how long I've got. I'm in college, and I need to make what money I can during the summer to pay for it. Living in an apartment, paying half my money away for rent, it just isn't really an option at all.

I'm spending all my money on bills, and it sucks. The only other choice I have is to drive a good hour (each way) from school to my parents' place. After you factor in gas and the 2 hours gone from my life every day, it's really the better deal to live over here.

only that much... Jeeze...

My parent's didn't pitch in a dime for the three colleges I've attended so far, and I've got a nice little loan waiting for me once I stop attending.

i guess it wouldnt have been so bad if i still lived in nyc, at least then i can go out with friends once they got off work at night. and i guess the much larger problem is that i know i wont get to live in nyc again for another 6 months, perhaps a year, where all my friends are. *sigh*
