Reading Stoic_Slaughter's journal

I suppose this is going to be my most stupid entry yet, but quite frankly, I don't care.

My mother is really starting to get to me. She's very "depressed" all the time, and she treats me like I'm her personal servant. It's been going on for at least seven years now, but I always thought of it as the norm; that is, until I was exposed to other families. The throwing away of my beloved journal was bad enough...but now this has gotten worse. I try my best to bite my tongue in high hopes that my parents will pay for my college in a few years. I mean really, what else can I do? My father sees it as well...but he says, "I have the rest of my life with her; just bear it a few more years."

That's about it, I suppose. No need to be verbose.

For my next trick, I shall make you all disappear.

Consider what is REALLY important. If college wasn't at issue, what then? Would the same things matter?

Consider the fact that when you're officially an adult (18 years old), you can apply for your own student loans. You can get grants. You can go to school part time. If you're really good at something, you can get a scholarship.

Consider the fact that things in high school are much different than the rest of the world.

I'll bet that just took 5 years off my life--but GODDAMM if it wasn't worth every second
