Family


So I haven't been posting. So much has been going on. Well, I guess I'll start on what happened on Friday.

In short: Sam came back from her great uncle's funeral. She was having a bad day, and she did well in math. Sam gloated to Kenz, Kenz got annoyed, Sam thought that Kenz was being selfish.. or something like that. They were pissed at each other. Basically. I talked to Sam about it, then hung out with Kenz at lunch and talked to her about it. I took Kenz's side because I know what it's like to have your best friend gloating about something.. and you ask them to stop, and then look at you like you're a friggin' weirdo that doesn't care about them. I talked to Sam on AIM afterschool and asked her if she was mad at me. She thought I was mad at her, then I told her what was bugging me (about her and Kenz), then she told me to "shove what kenz told me up my butt". Great way to end a conversation.

That wasn't very "short".

Well, I'm tired. This weekend was very hectic and busy, but I'm too lazy to write anything about it.

I did figure out that I had a nephew/godson named Michael (russian pronounciation: mi-kayl). We call him Mico. I met him too! He seemed to love me, and my cousin Dorothy told me that he doesn't take a liking to most people. That was awesome. =)

That's.. it..

So I'm like, totally..well, somewhat happy, somehow not.

Sam's not pissed at me [she was, I don't think I posted that]. At lunch today, she's like "We have to talk." I thought I should be scared, but she said that I didn't have to be. And yada yada, 3 minutes later, we're heading back to where we started. The "I love you"s come and the hugs enter. Not very big, seemed like a big huge routine or cycle. So yeah. It was supposed to be all lovey-dovey-mushy-lovey-lovey-lovey crap like that. I wanted that.. because.. well, I wanted to feel like she really accepted my apology and like she really truly missed me, loved me.. I was really bad. I overestimated Sam. I wish I underestimated her, instead.

So yeah. I was stuck with Savannah.. well, not stuck because that sounds bad. She and I were hanging out.. pretty much alone. During that lunch period of pain.. Savannah and I were discussing who Matt liked. I really think that he likes Emily. I hate that. Why does he have to like my best friend??? That's not cool. Not at all.

I'm crying right now. My dad's outside smoking.. like 30 feet away. I still smell it. It's getting on my nerves. Smoke is in my eyes, its what I'm breathing. I don't wanna breath right now, I'm scared to. I'm holding my breath. Taking little breaths of air. It's a bit sad.

So I'm just breaking down over the fact that my dad is gunna get cancer and die in the next ten years. My ex boyfriend [whom I still have feelings for, by the way] likes my best friend, and Sam is still probably pissed, but doesn't really realize it.. maybe. This sucks. I mean, I'm happy that I've made up with Sam "on the surface" and .. that's really it.

I hate my life. Again. Why me? Seriously. Why.

I'm in the mood for Michelle Branch lyrics.

Michelle Branch – Goodbye To You

Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said,

[Chorus:]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right

[Chorus]

And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time

[Chorus x2]

And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You're my shooting star

Michelle Branch rocks. She's like… 22 now. And has a baby. He's cute.

Sam signed on. I think I should talk to her. Or not. Dunno.

Bye.

Family: the once thing in life that never changes. Unless someone dies, of course.

No, nobody died. If they did, I wouldn't have posted this until.. at least a week after the death. If someone died, I'd be off computers.. well, actually, I wouldn't. I would try to, but I wouldn't be able to handle it.

Anyways, yesterday.. My brother Justin became a full-on believer in Catholicism. He got "confirmed" last night at a 2-hour event at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel [my church]. It was really emotional for me, but not because my brother was getting confirmed. I've been fighting with my parents recently, you know? It really sucks. In church I got this booklet of all the bible readings that would be read during the mass. I was tapping on it and brushing it with my fingers to make some rhythm, get me less bored and a bit more hyper and excited. My dad's telling me to stop, but I keep insisting that it's music. My brother Jason and I fight about what music is and then my dad's like "Why aren't you listening to me? You don't show me any respect.. you don't deserve to call me "Dad" anymore. I'm not your Dad. You just lost a Dad."

That really killed me. A lot. Tears welled up in my eyes. My brother saw me about to cry and asked me to go on a walk with him. On the way out the door, I started bawling. Silently, of course. My brother asks me about the domain crap and all that and then the whole conversation turns into an argument over my parents trust in me. It was a good argument. Jason is one smooth talker. From what he told me, I found out that I think I am a little kid. I think of myself as a little kid: selfish, greedy, easily hurt. If I start thinking of my self as a big kid [mature, responsible, stronger] then my parents could trust me too.

It took me a while to stop the tears. But I did. Sure, I was choking up during the mass. But all in all, I still loved my parents. Even though my mom and I were arguing and my dad doesn't want me anymore.

At the confirmation reception after the mass, I met up with Justin and congratulated him. I was very proud of him. Being the baby of the family, I talked to him last. It gets annoying, but you learn to live and love it.

We ate a ton of salami sandwiches [cracker, salami, cracker] and that was supposed to be our dinner. Pshh, that.. our dinner? Yeah, right. On the way home, I apologized to my mom, because I know that she's way more calm and patient and totally forgiving. She believes in the best of people. I'm saving my dad for later… but he's not really my dad anymore. *sniffles*

Man..

My god, Matt just talked to me. He actually talked to me. On AIM. He like completely shut me off and now he talks to me? I hate that.

This is the recap of the conversation with Matt that I told Jessie:

yay its me xx: he's just like 'hi' and i said 'woah youre talking to me'
Chase the ppl: lol
yay its me xx: and then he said 'im trying to ignore you but you and jessie are the only ones online'
yay its me xx: it was very nic
yay its me xx: *nice
yay its me xx: lol
Chase the ppl: lol I bet
yay its me xx: we just started talking about random stuff
yay its me xx: he's like, do you think that girls still like me?
yay its me xx: and i said, probably
yay its me xx: he said, what
yay its me xx: and i said, well its not like they can help it
yay its me xx: he said, i know they cant resist me
yay its me xx: im just like LMFAO
Chase the ppl: hahaha
yay its me xx: i cant help but agree with him
Chase the ppl: god I know

Funny, right?

Well.. that's about it. Talk to ya.. later.

I don't wanna say it, but it's true; I hate my mom.

Yeah, go ahead and tell me "She's your mom! You're supposed to love her. She gave birth to you, went through 19 hours of labor for you, and fed you for the past 12 years. She's given you a shelter, introduced you to lifelong friends, and given you birthday parties. Why in the world would you hate your own mom?"

Well, I can answer that question.

1. My mom doesn't know me, doesn't understand me.
2. My mom makes MY decisions.
3. My mom has no idea what I want.
4. My mom just ain't cool.

I want to get a domain. "screamsinsilence.org" AND pay for it with my own money. And STILL my mom won't let me buy it. What's with that? Of course, I would need her credit card.. it's only 30 dollars a YEAR.. that's VERY cheap! She won't let me get it. I've asked her at least a thousand times and not once has she even considered it. She keeps asking "Why do you want it?" or "What are you going to put on it?". She would know the answers if she tried.

My mom is hopeless.

So.. ohhh yesterday was lots of fun!! Well.. okay, read:

Okay, so I woke up at like 9. Ohh how much I love sleep! Then I went downstairs and my mom's like "OMG someone TPed our house!". Because, well, someone did. Anyways, my mom said I had to pick it up later with my bro, because one of our friends did it. I'm pretty sure that one of my bro's friends did it. But I might be wrong…

Anyways, I went on the computer, chatted for a while. My mom took me to the Escondido Girl Scouts shop, so I had to take a shower and such.. ehh.. so I got it, and my mom was totally frantic over my vest. Should it be large or medium… lol. I have to wear it throughout High School (it's the same vest through Cadettes and Seniors). And that's where Brittani Cortopassi's mom's car got broken into about a year ago! The robbers took her credit cards because she left her purse in there.

Okay, back to this year. So I didn't haveto clean up the TP, my bro did, and he didn't seem to mind. And then my mom and I went to Costco and bought stuff and tried samples of food and such for almost 2 hours. It was actually lots of fun. At 4, we left for my second cousin's grandpa's 60th birthday party. There was an awesome Japanese/Chinese lion dance, and a really nice band. It was my uncle's band, actually, but they were great!

Okay, so basically, it was very cool!

Yeah.. that's about it.

Okay, here's the simple version of the past 3 days' events.

SUNDAY:
my mom's birthday, we went to church, then went to a buffet place (souplantation or some chinese place, i forget) and it was good

MONDAY:
emily and i fought more, click here to read our convo. (goes from bottom to top, beginning to the basic end). dentist appointment at 4, left at 3:15, had 2 cavities drilled out (it hurts, i swear i'm giving up eating candy a lot) and then fillings put in, went home, watched a jimmy neutron and fairly oddparents marathon and then jimmy timmy 2. not a blast, but it was a good thing to clear my mind of the events of life.

TUESDAY (today) :
okay. i woke up late today, at like 6:45, then woke up and found that my clothes werent dry so i had to put my clothes in the dryer for like 20 min. during the 20 min i ate breakfast and talked to my mom about random things.. my parents (both mom and dad) stayed home on sick leave. i went to school at about 7:30, got there about a min after 7:30 so 7:31 and i ran to rm 205, basic ed. found out the books i needed, saw mckenzie and sam, then yeah.. sam asked me if i broke up with matt, i didnt… tells me what matt said to her and kenz, and.. well.. yeah.. 4th period, theres a lab, matt and i werent partners. i worked alone, sniffling.. lunch comes, im terrified of matt. found out he broke up with me, burst into tears… and then.. i give the heart he carved for me to him, and then.. i sit under my tree and cry. yes cry.

look, people, i did not cheat on him. he did not cheat on me (im pretty sure) and theres nothing else to it. he supposedly broke up with my because i was mean to his friends (from what i know) and.. well.. the rest is matt's and my business.

i hate life. basically.

Wow, today was lots of fun.

I slept in till 9 in the morning… woke up because of the darn sunlight. But it was so calm and soothing. Then I remembered life and it got bad again. Sorry for the bad adjectives, I'm just not into thinking today. I do enough of that at school.

I went onto my PC a couple minutes after I got out of bed and talked to Olivia for a while. She invited me to go to the movies with her. We sorted everything out and my mom took me to her house at about 12:30. It took a while to get there because I forgot how to get to their house. But it all worked out in the end.

So we saw Cheaper By The Dozen 2. You average family movie, basically. Alyson Stoner is really pretty!! And Jacob Smith… he looks different now. Oh well, he's still cute. =D. Anyways, there were these 8-10 yr olds behind us laughing and talking.. it was so annoying! But I got over it. After the movie we went to Jamba Juice… and then we went to her house and I simply adored her new stuff. PSP…. *drools*

It was lots of fun. Sorta like a paradise, an escape, if you will, from reality. And it was really comforting. Thanks, Olivia.

Adios peoples!
