It was Saturday around noon, we were driving down the road. Mum was humming off tune and I was watching the view of trees like the replay of a boring sitcom. I soon got tired and tried to get some shut-eye but for some reason mum said, "This is fun, isn't it. Driving down the road together, we can finally have that mother-daughter bonding like in those classic movies." Of all the things to say. I wanted to say something sarcastic like, "Yeah mum, it is so fun I just want to jump up and down like a 6 year old that got a new bike." But instead said, "Huh? Oh, yeah... Fun." I knew she was trying her best to perk up the dull mood, but moving to Illinois was just going to be hard to adapt to. Making new friends, new school, new house, new neighbours, it just seems to difficult for me, after all, how much can you put on a 14 year olds shoulders?
