Ready to leave now
Okay, can I go to college already?
I've been accepted, I'm enrolled (thanks for listening to me dad), and I'm sick of high school.
The main thing I'm pissed about right now is my mother and father's inability to understand that I need a job in college.
My IB classes in HS have got me constantly busy. To get anything done, I need to be busy, or I will distract myself and procrastinate.
I know this, I experience it.
No mom, it's not something I can control by forcing myself to work. Because at that point in time, my mindset will have changed to "meh, I'll do it later."
Also, if I don't have a job and time constraints, I will likely fall to addictive wonder of World of Warcraft. I played it years ago. I know what it does to me. And I WILL fall to it because my roommate (tehmagster) is constantly trying to get me to play it.
I can handle myself and I also want to partially support myself financially. Unlike my sister, I don't enjoy taking my parents hard earned money when I want to run off and have fun at the movies. No! I don't like doing that.
But no, a part time job is soooooooo hard. It's going to make me fail and drop out of college. Bullshit.
My mother tried to use some example of how she got bored in college cause she liked her job better. To this I say "Mom, I am NOT you. We work differently. Unlike you, when I realize I do not enjoy school or some such, I work HARDER to get it done and over with. Don't compare yourself to me."
Of course, though, mom is encouraging me to volunteer. Fine. I'd love to. But HOW is that SO much different than a job? Damnit, I'm more likely to need a CAR if I volunteer! Where the hell in that city, close to that campus, am I going to find volunteer work that I enjoy?!
*rant rant bitch bitch*
Sorry, had to be done.
The conversation this morning did little more than piss me off.
