Once a week for fifteen minutes-8

Since I was little, I have rarely left my family except last summer vacation in the state, the first and the only time I left my parents. My parents always keep me by their sides, not allowing me to leave 3 inches away from their sight, so I can proudly and exactly say that I have never experienced tumbling down the floor and getting a bruise on the skin. So far, I have lived at home and have commuted back and forth to the school everyday; therefore, I begin to feel like living in the dormitory, trying to live alone and deal with daily life problems on my own. Luckily, last week, my mother, who keeps a dominant position in my family, happened to leave Taipei, so I got a chance to experience the life without any help. I got to wake up 1 hour earlier than the normal day; I got to have every meal in the convenient store because I didn't know how to cook; I got to manage everything on time, for no one could race me to school within 10 minutes. I got to say I was bloody worn out!
