To be honest, I know the charity does a lot of good work and all, but I don't feel comfortable there and there's other causes I myself feel are more important. The environment is one, homeless and abused kids/animals would be second and cancer.
I have nothing against the people that volunteer at the shop, I got along with most of them and will most likely shall pop in to chat with them from time to time but I need to be around people of my age and interests.
So most likely, since I messaged my mom before I posted this to get her opinion and she told me to go with what I want to do and I am going to go with my heart is telling me and stop doing the volunteering. I know the friend had good intentions and I felt pressured into taking the position but there are other things I find more important right now in my life.
Getting into college and trying to make bonds with the people I have met through the gaming store I wish to return back to and building a friendship and my mom's hoping it turns into a relationship, with a really cool guy. Also, I feel I need to devote most of my spare time to finding a job.
Maybe after everything settles down, since there's always the chance that I won't be staying where I am right now permanently, I will start to look at the other charities around and find one that I feel, to myself, is one I agree with and want to spend my time volunteering with.
