I've just remembered about Livejournal

You know, I've lived independently for five years, apparently as a full and genuine adult, and am very, very far away from both my parents for 99% of the year. And I still feel a slight disapproving glare over my shoulder somewhere from three thousand miles to the east when I add an extra spoonful of sugar to lemonade.

I can now spend days in my flat as I am not forced outside because it is a 'nice day'. I can watch what I want and for how long I want. I don't need to be home for a particular time. I don't need to eat a balanced meal every day or make sure that I am drinking enough. I can put on a T-shirt underneath my shirt without being forced to iron it first. I don't need to put away things to take it out the next day, just because it looks tidy.

Actually, come to think of it. I probably should start doing things again like I was under parental rule.
