I typically have lunch at Subway 2 or 3 times a week. I walk there... I cross a very busy intersection (Yonge St in Richmond Hill. Hah.), go into Subway, order, and pay for my stuff, then either eat the goods there or take them back home. I also stop by Reid's Dairy to pick up milk whenever my mom needs me to, because it's cheaper. I also go to Weston Produce occasionally when my mom or sister need groceries, and I went to Laser Quest last week with my cousin. All of this stuff is within walking distance. Soon, I'll be driving or maybe taking the buses/subways to get around.
When I'm in college or university, I'll obviously be distancing myself from my parents, but I'll still be living at home - although living on my own in a cheap apartment sounds quite convenient due to being away from my parents and not having them bother me, I have quality meals and housing available at home.
Oh, and I'm also becoming less shy... although I'm not attractive at all, I'll talk to girls if given the opportunity... I'm obviously not going to jump a girl I see on the street and say "Hey, how are you doing today?!".
