My cousin has been staying with us for her on-the job training at the NAIA. She’s almost graduating from college but her parents still not allow her to go to overnight get together with friends. I don’t know if it’s just me getting old or just me  not wanting to take responsibility for a technically adult relative, but I hated that she lied about sleeping over my place as an excuse to go to her swimming party. The thing is, she didn’t even intend to tell me. I was there, the first time we’re at the apartment together because of my self-imposed erratic schedule, pretending to look all responsible with waking up early to buy breakfast and tending to the laundry just as soon as I ate, even wishing I have one of those steam cleaners to clean the floors with, and thinking to myself “why is this girl still hanging around watching TV when she’s supposed to be well on her way to work?”  She must have noticed, so she told me the truth. I didn’t really say anything agaisnt it; I figured there’s nothing I can do anyway and why would I want to be such a party pooper when I perfectly understand where she’s coming from. It just sucks that knowing that I should have said something more than just “take care” makes me kind of guilty to a certain degree. I mean it’s not as if I didn’t do something like that in my time. But I know myself, and it’s more than I can say for her.
