Summer Vacation?

My parents said if me and my brother finish our school before summer (we're homeschooled and we're a bit behind because we got sick) we could go to Texas to spend the summer with our grandparents. Which would be awesome. But both my brother and my closest friends are trying to talk us out of it, cause they'd like us to spend the summer with them. But this is an opportunity that could vanish for another three years...? I can't decide what to do. Getting all my stuff done will be a pain in the ass and I'm worried about my relationships. How would they feel if I went away for three months? Would it change things dramatically? I think I'm stressing this too far.

I dunno I would go for it . . .things may change, but how drastically will depend on how things go while your gone. Just explaine to your friends how you feel about it, and I guess make your decision from there.

It's only three months, they'll understand if there tru friends.

Maybe... But my friend and I rely on each other alot. And we go to each other's houses every day, and if one of doesn't come over for two days its very weird. We're just really tight friends. I think she can accept it, I just really hope that nothing changes between us or something. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be living next door to her. I'm serious, it was her idea and it ended up happening. Its kind of funny.

Thats so odd. please tell me the story.

How old are you?
This is needed before I can give any advice.

.......why? fifteen.

oops. im in my friend's user

Actually I'm only fourteen now, but I'll be fifteen by the end of march, and my little brother will be twelve before that.

yes ur stressing this too far. i'm going to texas! our friends will still be here, and our grandparents might not! so i'm set on going.

If i were you i'd go because not much could happen while your gone. for me i'm just waiting for an opportunity to get out and see the world.

okay Jen, you don't understand.A few years back i went to Portland for three months and when i came back my best friend was really depressed 'cause her sister died, so she started going on "medical drugs". She was really scewed up. I kept thinking to my self "If I was there for her, would she be scewed up now?" I'm not sayin that I think that your going to go on drugs,I'm just saying that I don't think that we should get distant. I don't want anything bad to happen to you.See what I'm saying.

...I apreciate that, but I am not Tabbi. If anything happened to you, then I would be really depressed. And hey, I might not even end up going cause I might never finish my school in time, or we might not get the money together. But I don't want to let my parents or grandparents down either.

Perhaps you can ask ur parents if you guys can stay for like a month instead of 3. If not, then just honestly ask yourself where you think you'd rather/should be. We cant really answer this for you because its really all about preference. However, if it was me, personally i'd rather just stay home and chill with my friends for the summer cuz spending three months with my grandparents would bore me to death lol. Plus, i'm sure you dont have to fear your relationship with your friend will vanish if you leave, especially if you two are as close as you say you are. I've had friends that moved to the other side of the country and i'm still friends with them. Your friend is more lucky cuz your just going away on vacation. But to me summer is all about where you'd have more fun.

That's a pretty good idea. and jen i'm not saying that your tabbi, what i'm saying is that because one of us left bad things happened to the other. and i know that you don't want to let your grandparents down so i'm sorry for pressuring you.forgive me.but dang it, life here will be so boring without you.*sniff sniff*

As life goes, you're meant to do what makes you happy. Don't worry about other people, because you're meant to worry about yourself. If you don't, no one will. You may think they do, but as humans, they care more for themselves...it's not a bad thing, it's true and it's the only reason you're still alive

*cough* so do what makes you happy. It's only three months. It's not a long time, you may think it is, but at the end you'll wonder where the time went. Your grandparents "time" is going to end soon, since the body deteriorates over time. We live to die, is all. What I'd think is what if they die this year. You'd never get to see them again, and that's the part of death that pains people. Loss.

It's your decision, I can't decide for you. Just follow what will make you happiest

Very...depressing, but I do agree. You should spend time with your grandparents, because like Kimi Ko (surprisingly) said earlier, if they were true friends, they would understand.
Then again, I know this is a pain in the ass answer, but you really have to decide what you think is right.

I want to go. But not for three months. Maybe two months or a month and a half.
Besides, I went down there for two days and saw a snake in the garage, this giant bug chased me, and the heat was horrible.
I'll just cut the time in half! And besides SSolca, you big meany! You're going to Rebecca for two weeks without me!

Thanks for your advice though guys.

I am not going to be there for 2 weeks, i'm going to be there for 5 days.plus i wanted you come over there sometime.and i do know that you have to make a decision and i'm glad that you only wanted to stay for 2 months max.as long as you get back here i'm fine.

*huggles* I wub you SSolca! You're my best friend!

whats all this talk about this summer jaz?, its not even summer yet ITS THE MIDDEL OF THE FREAKING WINTER! but naywayz you go to texas ya here?

Because I'd be leaving this spring and spending most of my summer there.
