Bring On The Thunder
So my mom came back from the Philippines a couple of days ago. The night she came back she was fine but the following days returned to the same nagging voice that I am used to. My father and I worked really hard to clean the house and even harder to clean out her room and all she can do is complain, even though she caused the cluttered mess in the first place. She is really losing her English and I would have to say it is now a lost cause trying to even talk to her because she doesn’t understand me and she thinks I am always insulting her even if ask something basic like, “what’s for dinner” or something.
My father still isn’t employed and I don’t even remember how long it’s been since he was. I am starting to worry about it but he is still getting a lot of job offers, that’s a good sign. He is also working to get official certification on different programming languages he knows.
My mom needs to get of her lazy butt and start to do something. It’s weird because everyone takes a lot of time out of their day to clean while working or doing school, in my case. While she is only just doing house work and she doesn’t even do much of that. She is suppose to ease our burdens at least a little bit, like when we all come home from a long day of school or work hunting. I end up doing the cooking, cleaning ECT. We all know she is over exaggerating how much work she actually does and is sitting watching this “investment” that is suppose to come but isn’t because I know she got scammed really bad. Oh yeah, smart choice there mom. I can’t believe she didn’t even have any second thoughts. I already caught three big red flags of BS because it is foreign investment, you sign a contract pretty much saying we cannot guarantee your money back and you invest at your own risk and the constant excuses of where the money really is.
If something doesn’t change before summer is over, my parents are screwed.
Things like this want me to move out even faster.
On the lighter note Cathy visited me yesterday, so that made my week pretty much. She let me borrow her Sims 2 Deluxe and I am having a blast making Sims of people I know in real life and messing with them on this game.
Math WASL Prep is almost over, thank God! I love to learn math in that class but I am extremely embarrassed to ask for help because I am really not good at it. Though what the teacher said was encouraging, that we all have our strong points and weak points. That doesn’t make me feel as bad. My teachers name is Mrs. French and she is really chatty sometimes. I feel bad because sometimes people treat her bad and there is really nothing I can do about it but sometimes she is extremely rude. She really reminds me of my friend April, the way she looks and everything. It’s weird.
Drivers ED is almost officially over soon because I don’t have classes anymore and I have to do a few more drives left and two make up tests. I hope I make this though because I am confident in my driving and all but I am not sure if I am “test smart” I suppose. I didn’t do terrible on the tests so it should be fine but I can only hope.
Chase is leaving for boot camp in the beginning of October. I talked to him last night, it was fun but I think Chase is generally unsure about anything. He isn’t exactly sure of how he wants life to turn out, what he exactly wants to do now that he is out of high school other than being in the National Guard. I do want to get in a few “dates” as he calls them in before he leaves for six months. My friend Ashlee and I already have a surprise going away party planned. Oh silly Chase won’t see that one coming. I think I like Chase as a friend but I don’t see him as appealing because I haven’t seen anything unique about him yet. Again, only time will tell anything.
Speaking of boys, I don’t really talk to Jake any more. I just don’t because I had a pretty awkward run-in with him. I was talking to him and it seems like in the middle of the conversation he changed his status to if your name is so-and-so please “eff” off. I was taken back because I thought he would be direct and mature with me because I can’t take any indirect commands from anyone I’ve noticed. I can’t read minds well but I asked him about it and he said something along the lines of well I’m sorry it doesn’t sound sugar coated and whatever but it’s the truth. I said I don’t mind that, I’m surprised you couldn’t be direct because I was lucky to catch that because I don’t always read what people put as their status message. I talked to him about it to get all sorted out but I think I’m going to space out with him for a while. I feel that it is best for the moment.
The time will come when I will meet the guy I’m looking for. I am not entirely in a rush but knowledge and education is like number one and will be for a long time. I don’t think I need any more distractions right now.

No additional distractions? Yeah, that actually sounds like a good idea. I think your plate is pretty full already. I’ll be thinking about you. Hope life settles down and smooths out for you.
