Outflow from a stranger to you

Well, I don't even know if this Forum still being used as I used to know in 2009 but I fell like I need to talk/write. I don't know if I need to be read or if any help will be useful. I don't even know if someone will understand everything I'll write since I'm not a english native speaker. But for now I just need to outflow.

Actually I'm at my 22s and I'm a student of a federal university of Brazil, what means a lot of policy stuff going on my mind and social life all the time. For ones who don't know yet: Brazil is passing through a really strange policy moment and the country is splitted in two. There are protests going on every week (almost every day) and, as a student, I mean to be there to fight for what I believe is the best for my future. Well, my parents don't think the same way I do.

Why is that a problem, since I am an adult now? It's a problem because I'm still living with them. I really love my parents but they are sooo blinded by midia that they think I'll die if I go to the streets protest. Even this distinct perspective between me and my parents that have been fighting with me everyday wouldn't be such a big deal. But my life has been so hard these times because of college stuff. I spent all my time studying and thinking about my classes and the university project witch one I'm envolved to earn some money to buy my stuff and buy (someday) a house for me.

There so many things going on and I didn't even had the time to process it all in my mind. I've been sick all the week and it never pass because I can't rest. There so many things I WANT, I MEAN, I NEED to do, and I can't because the other adults are always holding me back. I feel like I'm never going to graduate because I'll give it all up and run to the hills before I choose a properly topic for my completion of course work.

Thanks if you read it all. I'm sorry for my english, I didn't had the mood to revise it all.

I did read all of it and thankies for posting your thoughts. To me it seems like your head is in the right place because your putting a lot of work into your university studies with your eyes on a future and someday having a home of your own. Keep your eyes on that vision and try not to get caught up in all of the political unrest going on in your country and around the world.

The chances that you would get hurt going to a protest are very small but not zero. And this small chance is what has your parents all worried. Every day I read about political instability around the world and I know that Brazil recently impeached its president. For sure, uncertain times lie ahead. I'm in the USA and this year has been the wackiest presidential election campaign that I can remember in my lifetime. The outcome could mean a lot of things, but I'll continue to take care of my daily needs and those of my family. So I guess that I'll suggest that you do the same. Keep watching what goes on around around you, but be careful how involved you get in them.

Best wishes - Meilin-chan
