longing for independence

So, I've been thinking about doing a lot of new things in my life.. Such as buying a new car and moving into an apartment. A couple of months ago my cousin and I literally almost signed the lease to an apartment in Southwest Roanoke. It was very cute and it really seemed like the perfect place for us. It was spacious, had a balcony, and a back yard. What more can you ask for? The only thing was that the rent was sky high. We also decided that we both need a new car before we even consider getting a new place. I suppose that's the smartest decision. I sometimes find myself feeling desperate to be on my own. I love my parents, I really do. I just need another sense of independence.


Anyways, the other day I was stuck at home, bored... and I made some very delicious cookies! They were funfetti cake cookies with frosting. I made so many I had to take some over to my friend Josh's apartment and let them all eat the rest.
