Independence, something that everyone wants from the day that they turn 13. You think right, I am finally a teenager, I'm basically an adult so I am all grown up. Evidently, we realise that we are wrong and we have so much to learn. This partially applies to every situation in life, we always have something to learn and we are never really fully grown up. I guess that I am saying this because I need to keep this in mind as I write this.  Since being home from university for the last month and a bit, I have experienced so many different situations and it all comes down to the word 'independence'. Since I have come home from university, a place where I pretty much had full independence, I have been battling with an alternative situation where I have limited independence.

This wasn't the life she wanted either.  On the move again, Emma settles in the picturesque waterfront town of Westport, Connecticut, a world apart from both England and Manhattan. It is h...

Okay, now this blog post is not going to be for everyone, and probably for the select few that enjoy and love this as much as me. This is something that is very much new to my interests but it is something that I would like to share with you.
