Meh, high school is average for me. The best days of my life are apparently pretty boring.

LOL Mine weren't exactly the peachiest either; pretty sure the whole "best days you your life" thing is a load of bull.

Sitting, waiting, wishing.

Hanging out in the student lounge at school, waiting to see if anyone will show up. My only class ended nearly three hours ago, but I have a meeting for a group project at 6PM--it's so much later because the other members in my group all have afternoon classes...

The one friend I was hoping would show up earlier sent me a text saying she wasn't feeling well but would lie down to try and get over it. That was about two hours ago, so I'mmuna text her back and see if she's better at all... If not, I'll just sit here and.....be alone a little longer I guess. If nothing else I'll suck it up and drive home for a few hours then drive back for the meeting. I'd been hoping to save myself the gas, but I don't really want to sit here for another six hours with just my computer.

Well that was awkward as kitten.

Every year, my mom's cousin Sherry holds a "group" birthday party at her house. The birthday's celebrated are:

--her son, Max's (April....something.)
--our young cousin, Emma's (April...something, about a week after Max's.)
--her boyfriend. Jim's (April 30th/today.)
--my dad's (April 30th/today.)
--mine (May 2nd/Monday.)

In the past, the party actually was a group celebration; presents were passed around equally, there was cake that everyone would enjoy, lots of family from all sides, etc. In recent years, it's become completely centered around Max (no surprise, since Sherry babies him like no tomorrow).

So today I hadn't really planned on going. I woke up around 1:40PM and learned from my dad that Mom had gone by herself. I learned from my younger brother that Dad didn't go because he and Mom had gotten into a fight. Got a text from Mom asking if I'd ask Dad to bring my brother down to the party (since it's just across town).

Asked Dad, he asked why. I said I didn't know, but was willing to take my brother myself if Dad wasn't interested in going. He thanked me, I got ready, waited on my brother, and went.

By the time we got there, the presents had been opened, the cake had been eaten, and everyone was just lazing around chatting. Not too bad, especially since the cake was mint--which I hate--so I felt no loss, and my brother'd managed to snag a piece from an aunt or something.

I settled in with some left-over barbecued steak and got to chatting. Then the heckling started.

"Ooooh, Miss Almost-21~ Better not steal our beers~"
"So when you go to Vegas, don't let your Mom slow you down!"
"Wait 'til you see what Sherry's got in store for you; she said she won't give you her present 'til you're at the airport~"

And so on, and so on. Normally, I don't mind the heckling since that's how my family shows their affection (aside from lots and lots of hugs and kisses). But today, I just wasn't in the mood. I'd woken up to learn that my parents had fought on my dad's birthday, had driven myself and my brother down there at my mom's request even though neither of us wanted to be there, and was just flat-out not in a good mood anyways.

To have heckling about my age and drinking put on top of it made it reeeeeealllyyy heard to pretend I cared at all about being there.

Anyways, we left after an hour since Mom said she was heading back, and now I'm sitting here wondering what to do with the rest of my day. I'm tempted to call up a friend, see if they wanna hang out--but I feel bad that my dad not only got into an argument with his wife, but was also left alone for a while on his birthday. I know he doesn't like celebrating it, but still...

Gah. Now I have a headache.

I hate it.

I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it.

I hate when they yell. I hate when Mom cries. I hate how my brother just shrugs it off. I hate when he says Dad should die, or Mom should just divorce him already. I hate how much it still hurts after the same thing over and over again for sixteen years. I hate how easy it is to tell other people that it's happening like nothing's wrong even though I'm trying not to cry. I hate feeling like I have to be sturdy for my younger brother while feeling like I just want to collapse into someone else at the same time. I hate going to sleep knowing our house is slightly broken again. I hate waking up the next morning, sneaking downstairs to see who's home and who's not. I hate how it's become so routine. I hate how it feels like it doesn't matter whenever I tell someone else and they say it happens to them too. I hate how it turns me into a little kid that has to bite their lip to not say anything even though they don't understand. I hate how I really do understand even though I don't want to.

I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it.

Thanks for the hug; feels good right now D; <3
(btw, love your sig; is it neji/hinata the pairing, or just them chillin' together?)

GAAAAHH this week.

Finals at school, money troubles (still), minor issues with friends, parents putting more pressure to find a job and/or finish JC, calling temp agencies to renew my files...

Can I just pretend I'm in middle school again and laze away the summer? Isn't that how you're supposed to do things in California?

Just got off the phone with the last temp agency I was employed through, found out they still have me on file and will let me know if any jobs pop up--currently trying to get rid of my shakes and anxiety 'cause I friggin' hate talking on the phone XD;;

Gonna go get showered then meet up with a friend that's packing up to go back to her parents' house for the summer; should be fun, since I'll probably spend most of the time entertaining her kitten =3

I'm glad you're feeling better, hun!!

Hurrah, I'm a Neji/Hina fan too--even though I don't really like Hinata. (I guess it comes down to not liking her in canon, but liking the potential a relationship between her and Neji holds for both characters.)

Ugh, fo' shi', down with exams and finals!

That. Exactly that. (she's not even in my top 50 fav characters... but yeah, I don't mind her as long as she stays away from Naruto, lol )

Yeeessss, so very on the same page as you. She's near the bottom of my list (dangerously close to Sasuke territory) but it's pretty much just because she's always focusing on Naruto when she's around, or being flat-out useless otherwise; she doesn't have many redeeming qualities in my eyes, so....it's all nothing to like and plenty to dislike. *shrug* But, I like the idea of her toughening up, getting over Naruto, and getting into a much more dynamic relationship with someone like Neji--it'd be so....complex, because of their history and family standings, I think. Plus the fanart's hot =P
