So I’ve had really good luck recently!
I won a $15 gift certificate from work for Barnes and Noble, then dan and I “won” a $50 gift card to great american restuarants (sweet water tavern, coastal flats, carlyle, etc.)
Then I got a HUGE bag full of makeup, hair, and skin samples from sephora. SERIOUSLY. it’s huge.
And I’m going to a MAC seminar tomorrow after my induction for honor society.
but i hate my parents.
grrr.
i told my mom that i was going to pentagon city mall to see if they would donate some stuff to girl scouts, and said i was stopping by home first to change and eat lunch. then she makes me do all this shit for her business and when dan comes to pick me up to go, she says i can’t go cause i have to CLEAN?! WTF.
my sister is sleeping on the couch and my brother is playing N64 and I have to clean?!. So I have to tell dan that i can’t go. which, i was really excited cause i was going to french connection to get a sweatshirt that i keep losing on eBay. so i was sorting my makeup samples into piles (me, ellen, donate), and they tell me to clean it up (meaning i have to start all over).
then i had to clean a bathroom.
we have THREE bathrooms in our house, and I always clean either my parents bathroom or the children’s bathroom. I never get to clean the powder room, which is a half bathroom. My brother always does that one in like 5 minutes cause he wants to go there. My mom said I had to clean the kid’s bathroom because i had to clean my makeup stuff. YEAH RIGHT. I never leave my makeup out. Like i trust hundreds of dollars of stuff with my brother and sister?!
So i take my brother’s accumulated dirty clothes and throw them on his bed. then i take his clock and karaoke machine, which are in the bathroom, and throw them too. i scrub the floor, toilet, sink, bath, and mirror. So, i should be free to go? No. Then they tell me I have to clean the kitchen. So I PUT AWAY dishes (that aren’t mine, cause I never eat there). I put away food i didn’t eat, wash dishes I didn’t use, and Sweep and Mop. Then I clean the counter and table and organize all of my siblings’ shit that’s just laying around. Like my sister’s clothes.
See, I have a little bit of an excuse. I dont have a ROOM. all of my worldly possessions fit inside a closet. I LITERALLY have to get changed in full view of everyone. I DONT HAVE A BED. I sleep on an uncomfortable chez in my sister’s room. WHICH MEANS:
i can only go to sleep when EVERYONE else is asleep (1AM plus)
i wake up several times
1) 6:00 when my dad gets up
2) 6:30 when my sister gets up
3) 7:30 when my brother gets up
4) 8:30 when I get up.
so i really only get 3-5 uncomfortable hours of semi rest.
and they wonder why i snap at them.
cause they disrespect me and hit me and throw stuff at me when i do nothing but good. they’re upset that i go with dan and that i “galavant/screw around/take off/ other derrogatory terms” with dan.
So after I clean the kitchen and bathroom, my mom says I can’t leave until I do other shit, and that she’s NEVER going to give me my check from work If I don’t.
the only relationship i even HAVE with my dad is when he says
1) you owe me money for birth control
2) you owe me money for the cell phone
3) you owe me money for the car
they wonder why i go with dan. maybe i wold spend more time if they cared about me. naturally, im going to spend time with a person that LOVES me and doesnt yell at me and call me stupid and whatever and APPRECIATES me. and doesnt charge me monthly for living with them.
I WANT TO CRY.
I WANT TO LEAVE, BUT I KNOW I CAN’T AFFORD IT.
WORSE: I HAVE TO PAY FOR MY COLLEGE.
WORST: I KNOW MY FAMILY HATES ME. IF IT WERE UP TO THEM, THEY WOULD KEEP ME CAGED.
They call me an adult, so I have to pay for things that I shouldn’t have too (Like my mom telling me to buy things for her, and she’ll pay me back, but then changes her mind when she hates me and DECIDES she wont pay me back), but then call me a child, so that I have to clean, be back by midnight everynight, can’t have a KEY TO MY OWN HOUSE, take away a car that I pay $150+ a month to use (I get payed about that a month).
And yet I’m an adult. An adult that can get grounded.
OTHER: I sorted donated halloween costumes for the less fortunate. I’m going to be a girl scout leader
