My Parents Suck

Rant/whine entry woot.

 

Seeing as this will be the farthest away I've ever been from anyone in my family, it's comforting to have both of my parents screaming at me the last two nights. I "run away" too much when I'm going to find stuff they want or stuff I need (like sandals, which it looks like I'll have to spend my own cash on while we're in Jamaica), my asking to take Oreos with me is "absurd" when we have an extra package (but spending MORE money to buy Pringles we didn't already have makes sense), I'm ultra lazy because I didn't take our recycling out (thanks for telling me I had to do it, and thanks for pretty much summing it up by saying you're too lazy to, ugh), I asked if I could sleep until 7 since I was told I could be at the drop zone for 830 and my dad blows a fuse saying he wants me there at 8. So that's me being lazy x2, yet he didn't feel the need to tell me that the email he received ALSO said the bus was going to be there earlier and that was WHY we need to be there earlier- and he also started saying I wanted to be there at 9, which in itself is stupid since that's when we're picked up.

 

So I yelled back at my dad for the first time ever, and felt like I was dreaming since, it was like, the first time ever. He did NOT like being yelled back at. But I'd had enough. They have both been ###### at me the last two days and I haven't gotten reasons why (or when I do it's because "I don't do enough" and "I ask too many questions" and "I always argue about EVERY SINGLE DETAIL"), and I had enough.

 

WONDERFUL note to go out on. SOMEBODY isn't going to be emailing or phonining their parents for the next ten days. Ugh.

 

No doubt there's stuff behind the scenes I don't know about, but for the love of Mata-Nui don't take it out on me right before I leave, geez.

 

EDIT: And I like, quadruple posted this entry to boot. Internet Explorer 9 sucks, and I hate the fact that my computer automatically "upgraded" to it.

They're your parents. :P I mean, they probably are stressing out, but remember they most likely have your best interest at heart. And any bad blood you guys may have had before will cool off by the time you get back home.

 

Also, even if what they do doesn't make sense, just do it, because. It'll help them relax a little more.

Yeah, sounds pretty bad. But ya know what, do your best not to let it bother you, even if they're being unreasonable.

 

Good luck. :)

1) they're probably worried about you

 

2) they're expressing worry in a different way

 

3) you'll probably eventually look back when you're a parent and wonder how it looked to them back then, cause it'll happen to you if you have kids

What will happen if they see this?

 

They won't. They never see BZP unless I show it to them.

If I get married and have kids and one goes off to another country by him/herself, I'll definitely be able to understand my parents' point of view. However, right now I don't.
