Today i got up early. Early i mean 9 o'clock. I think i've finally broke my sleeping habit of going to bed late getting up even later...
Its a habit i wouldn't necessarily say was bad (unlike my parents), just gettin a bit fed up with it.
I think the habit really started when we were getting the extension built. I didn't like having people in the house the whole time.....so i kinda unconsciously made a decision to just sleep.
But after a while it has an affect on you. You get tired of it....you become lazy.....miss out on things. My sleeping habits certainly weren't helped by my poor studying techniques, tho i must add worked nonetheless.
But relations between me and my parents have been 'icy' to say the least. For instance today my mum was giving me a lift somewhere, she said i was being disrespectful to her cos "i made her wait for 5 minutes". The 5 minutes was more like 2 and i was hardly disrespectful. I would have probably, a year ago, told her to go shove her lift, but you know the boundaries.....or the line you shouldn't cross. I have crossed 'the line' on several occassions.....like i'm sure most of you have and no what i mean...but it just causes you more troubles you have to deal with. You may as well just agree with it all and save urself the bother.
Cause i mean lets face it the whole teenage angst passed.....i just don't get along with my parents. Well, i think its probably more my parents fault than mine. I still feel like they treat me like a kid....like the feeling you get when no one listens to what you say....or patronises you. Like for instance today i had to phone the uni up to book a laptop session, the only time available suitable for me is this friday, its a bit tight cos i have an exam on friday but its just manageable, my mum was like 'if u managed ur time better u wouldn't have had this problem'. My mum knew nothing about this laptop session and just used it as a chance to get at me. I explained to her it had fuck all to do with time management..but more on exams and available laptop sessions. Another disagreement.....another argument....
But anyhow there are lots of things we disagree about. No point losing any sleep over them. They're all petty...each and everyone one of them.
