It’s been a while

I haven’t written since April. A summer has come and gone since then. A lot has happened.

I turned eighteen last Saturday.

Rob got a DWI in July and just got his court date over with two days ago. He lost his license and will be on probation for a year. 24 hours community service. I’m thankful he got no jail time.

I’ve applied to UNCG and they are giving me a fit over in-state vs out-of-state tuition simply because my father lives in South Carolina. I’m pretty sure my school records should prove that I live in North Carolina. They are just being morons and I am sick of dealing with this.

I’ve got back in touch with Nick. I’m happy about that. I missed him. And Kyndal (his daughter) looks just like him.

Dad’s going to have to get his knee replaced soon. It’s gotten real bad.

Honestly, my relationship with Rob has gotten a lot worse, in my opinion. He probably doesn’t see it that way because he’s a loner and doesn’t mind. He’s not affectionate. He doesn’t talk to me. He all but ignores me when we are together. The only time we really spend "together" is sex, and that has dwindled to almost nothing. I’m so tired of it. So tired.

We got a student teacher in band. He was wonderful. I became very attached to him, fortunately at the time and unfortunately now, as he is gone. I miss him terribly.

I’m thinking that, if I stay on here, I will start a new diary. I neglected it too much and I feel funny just picking back up several months later. Plus I think I need a new start.
