Home and away!

In spite of being a 22yr old, I stay with my parents in my dear little home. Have been living like this, in this protected environment rite from day one. Have been through school, two colleges and now my job, but none of these things made me have to go away from home! Well… lucky?? That’s subject to opinion, and situation.

I’ve got friends, colleagues and acquaintances that’ve been staying away since ages of 17 and 18.

Some of them think I’m damn lucky! Well I do get hot food everyday! These ppl: some eat out each day, making them sick of outside food and sometimes literally sick! Others have to deal with a cook, who might even leave worms n pests in the food.

A good friend of mine has to go thru silly things like a roomie totally trying to live on this fellow’s earnings. He notices petty amounts like 10 or 20 bucks disappearing from his drawer every now n then. Even the expensive shampoo he bought had to be properly hidden somewhere, as he was sure it wud get totally done with before he himself got to do the honors of using it.

Two of my colleagues and fellow female gossip mongers, live with a third female in a shared apartment. They go thru a lot of nagging n bickering by her, along with buttering of any third party associated with them in order to turn everyone against her 2 roommates cum absolute enemies. Its proper strategical vamp behavior seen only in saas-bahu serials, which they experience in her case.

But there’s a lot of other stuff like, them getting to stay out late n turn up at absolutely any hour which people like us staying with parents can’t think of doing! So when its party time, it’s their time!!!
And I do envy the fun time these people have, even at home!

But lets not forget how warm and cozy it feels, to have mom welcoming u home after a long day!! 

Hey,
Staying away from home gives you a new experience. Its not only the question of getting your 'space' (as some would call it) but its also the responsibility that you learn to shoulder. And there's no one to pamper you home-away!

So I guess one should stay away only as long as one gets home-sick. Taking the easy way out. :)

Nice topic and nice post.
