If anyone has ever been, they'll kinda know what I'm talking about.
Being away from your family, surrounded by people that you don't really like, or don't really know.
The feeling sucks..

I go to a Boarding school in Alice Springs, in the middle of Australia. I've been here a total of 5 weeks, but we had holidays after I was here for 4 weeks. Technally, I'm still new. But it grows on you so much. The reasons why I go here suck arse, but shit happens. And I have to live with my Mum decitions and mistakes.

I shouldn't really be going to this Boarding school anymore, cause my Mum now lives in Alice Springs.. with my Step Dad. So there is no real point of me being here, but I am.. until the end of the year, anyway.

I don't have alot to complian about, and if I did, I don't have any right to say it. My Mum only lived 2 hours away from Alice Springs, so I pretty much saw her every weekend. When everyone else here at the Boarding school couldn't see there parents every weekend, mostly because they lived heaps far away from Alice Springs. And as many people have said, and I agree, I'm a lucky one.

I mean, the Boarding house is allright and all. I suppose it's just the house parents that i have issues with. We have 5 house Mums, 3 of them I love and get along with great. It's just the other 2 that I seriously hate and just really don't get along with at all. They get shitty at me if I'm like, 3 mintues late to get inside the Junior Dorm. And it seriously pisses me off. I mean, I know I'm supposed to be in at a certain time and all, but they like, yell at me and stuff. But it's not only me, they do it to the other girls if they're ever late inside as well. But it's still majorly annoying.

This might seem like I hate the place, but I don't. I love it and I could quiet easly finish my school years living at this Boarding house, but I can't. Next year I'm just a day-bug (day student) and I will hardly get to see all my friends that I have here, but it'll be allright. Cause I'll get them out over the weekend ^_^

Boarding house might seem bad when you're there, but when you're out, you finally realise how much you loved the place.
