Independence is something to value. You go to school everyday and you're around your friends the whole day and you talk and talk. You smile and laugh, you get mad and sad. When you're home, it's like there is none of that energy left in your body and you can't communicate with your family anymore. They talk to you, but you can't help to think in your head, "Fuck off, stop talking. Just make the sounds that is coming out of your mouth cease." Everyday is the same for me. Morning: I don't want to talk, my throat is a little swollen and sore from sleeping. Talking is not my main thing in the morning. Stop asking me mindless shit when I don't want to say anything. In the car: No, not now or five minutes later. I don't want to talk. I want music and my dreams to contend with. Talking is not my favorite activity with people when I don't want to talk. People seem to not notice this, and of course I can't just say I don't want to talk because I don't even want to say that. So everything that I would like to say to those SOBs is fuck off, shut the fuck up, shove it, I don't give a crap, and for fuck's sake just make it stop!
