You're so brave to tell your mom about your college exploits. I've been too afraid to do so, even though I feel now like my parents don't even know who I really am anymore. I envy your bravery.

It was over a text, that’s how I could do it haha

And it was a really bizarre moment.  I don’t know how important it is to tell your parents things like that… but I guess communication is important, so…  

Meh.  I dunno.  I think my parents realise I’m developing into a very independent person and that I’m smart enough and careful enough not to get myself into trouble, whatever I do.  As long as I keep my grades up and my body healthy, and don’t acquire strange philosophies or dangerous habits, I think they’ll be okay.

Also, if you ever want to chat, send me a message off anon and we can go back and forth privately if you’d like.
