Posted Thursday January 26 2006, 3:17 pm
ok so sorry this is sorta long. well i came downstairs today and my mom is sitting at the computer looking at flights and she goes, "ok so there is this mothers weekend thing at ur sisters college, but its the weekend of your birthday." (she was asking me what i thought, but ovbiously she was already looking at flights so she wanted to go there.) so i told her it was fine whatever, to go. then i just walked away. then i hear her quickly call my sister and say, "shes fine, im coming." i am so mad. not only is it my bday its my sweet 16. its like she likes my sister better and cares nothing about my birthday. would anyone else be offended/upset if this happened? i just dont know what to do. i feel like crap.

Credit Card History?
Posted Wednesday January 25 2006, 5:04 pm
So my parents have decided to get me a credit card and contact lenses as soon as I become "responsible". I know which contacts I want...so that's a completely irrelevant piece of informatin, since we all love those. ;). For lots of the credit cards I'm considering, you need good or excellent credi. What if you have no credit? Also, if you have a credit card already, please let me know all the ins and outs about it. Oooh, and if you can think of ways to prove how responsible I am, then please let me know! ßhould I consider a debit card? What's the difference?

my dad has no faith in me
Posted Wednesday January 25 2006, 1:05 am
My dad made me cry my eyes out today. This is what happened.
Well last August I was asked by my cousin to be a bridesmaid for her wedding in April of this year. I said yes, and at the time was unemployed. Well I have a job now at a really good company. But I'm still on a 3 month probation. My grandma (who is paying for the wedding) was expecting me to take 3 days off on a weekend this Febuary just for a dress fitting!! She lives 6 hours away, and I would have had to take the greyhound bus. I told my dad this and he started screaming at me, saying that I was going to lose my job over this. I have a mental illness, and this is the first job I've had in 5 years. He said I would never get another job again and that he wanted me t...

My parents & their smoking.
Posted Monday January 23 2006, 8:02 pm
Well, my parents are smokers. My dad has been smoking since he was a kid.. middle school and now he is 39. My mom has been smoking pretty much since high school and now she is 37. That's the background info.
My dad really wanted to stop and he tried 3 or 4 times, but failed. Used Nicoteen and whatever there was. He couldn't. My mom has done the same, but she doesn't belive that any products or pathches work.
I'm really scared they they will get cancer and die. I know you'll die when your time is up, but my parents are only middle age and I don't want them to die .. anytime soon !!!! It scares me to death, and I also don't want to have lung problems because I'm always around.
Now my question, how ...

Getting on my sister's good side
Posted Monday January 23 2006, 7:17 pm
Okay so I need to get on my sister's good side. I was kind of a bitch to her this past weekend. She wanted to wear one of my skirts and I didn't let her. I had a good reason though--Last time she wore one of my skirts she cut it because she thought it was too long.
Anyway, the mom of this family she babysits for just got a boob job and can't fit into any of her new designer shirts. I'm talking like Gucci, Chanel, Burberry, you name it. And they're like still brand new, tags and everything.
She says that since I was such a bitch to her that she won't give me any of them. I need to know how I can make it up to her fast so any help is appreciated. And I know that I should always be nice to her even...

i'm stuck..
Posted Friday January 20 2006, 7:01 pm
16/f My dad won't let me get my license until I turn 17. I don't think this is fair. I've been driving (with a learners permit) for a year now. I'm like the perfect daughter, and I make mostly A's in school. I've never gotten in any serious trouble. And I really need my license because my parents hate driving me everywhere, and so I'm always stuck at home and I feel so..restrained? I don't know if thats the right word. But it's been really depressing me, seeing as ALL my friends are or have gotten their license when they turn(ed) 16. But I'm the only one who won't be getting mine. I cry all the time when I think about it, I want my license soo badly. How can I talk my dad into letting me get my license? I need some good, real answers. Thanks.

The joys of battles over child support.
Posted Friday January 20 2006, 5:08 am
My mother is in town for a week; she lives out of state. I'm staying in a small hotel room with her for the time being. Normally, I live with my dad about 5 miles away from this hotel.
Because of the tiny size of the hotel room, I hear all of her conversations. All of them are the same...I swear I've heard her give the same whiny speech to 10 different people about her friend making her angry, me making her angry, and of course, my dad making her angry.
A new court battle has been opened up with them, even though they've been divorced for 10 years. It never ends. You'd think I'd know by now how to approach this, but I have no idea how to go about telling her that I don't know how much more I can hear about my ...

my grandpa died.
Posted Monday January 16 2006, 8:47 pm
My grandpa died about one year ago, and the only time I cried about it is when i recieved the news on the phone. Not even at the funeral/wake..=\. But it's sort of hard to believe that I didn't because I used to have a diary and i wrote about how close i was to him and how much i loved him and such. Now for the past few days, all I have been doing is crying about him because I miss him so much. I mean i can't even watch certain shows on tv anymore because we used to watch them together, and songs that sing about relationships make me cry. My question is, why am i just starting to miss him and crying now? What should I do? This is the first time i've cried about him being gone.
Thanks for any advice. And btw, I dont have any other gr...

I hate my step dad.
Posted Sunday January 15 2006, 2:19 pm
In a nutshell, I hate my stepdad. Well, HATE is a strong word, so let's just say I highly dislike him.
My mother met him about 5 years ago, and they got married a year later. He was nice to me and my sister during their courtship, but since he married my mom he's turned into an ass. Well he's really mean to me and my sister. Neither of us has a bf so he says to our faces that were lesbians. When I had my 25th birthday he told me in front of my mother that I must be a dyke because all of his daughters were married by my age. He always compares us to his daughters who are all married.
My sister has a weight problem and he calls her fat and a slug. He convinced my mother to kick her out of the house while she was still in ...
