It's summer, I'm alone, and I have no where to go. What do I do?!?

Question

During the summer, I go to stay with my Dad in another town. I only know two other people here, who I'm not very close to as far as friends go.

My Dad has a lot of medical problems, so we can't take vacations. He's also extremely difficult to be around, and live with.

I'm losing my mind being here. I miss my friends back home, who I only get to see during the weekends (which I'm thankful about).

Please help me, what do I do? I don't want this summer to feel like a prison sentence. I'm an optimistic girl, and hopeful about something exciting happening to me, but I need some help. Some suggestions.

I've thought about checking into the churches with youth programs to meet other kids.

Answer 1

the best thing to do is to volunteer with some kind of organization over the summer in something you are interested in knowing/pursuing. it is quite easy to get such a position because they are always looking for free labor. especially recommended are hospital, library, church, etc. good luck.

Answer 2

You can either get a job, volunteering is a great idea! Sorry if I wasn't much help. Good Luck! Please answer mine:http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

Answer 3

You should get a job. It's a great way to meet people and it'll get you out of the house.
