Some good news, finally~
Got meh car fixed by getting new tires, and an alignment and bought hub-caps....and now my car is fantastic and I don't vibrate massively on the freeway when I go over 60mph. Yay! <3. My car's back on it's way to being a normal car and not a hill-billy car. YUSH! Now all I gotta do is fix the dent in the back of the car, and my light when mike's friend hit my car (and drove off...bastard) Wasn't too bad cost-wise...I think I spent $350 on the whole thing, not including the $50 rebate that came with it. I mean, considering how other places were MUCH higher...it isn't bad. But it definitely puts a whole in my pocket between that and the photography class I have to take this summer. Fufufufu....I hate how everything is so expensive. Us poor students can't afford it...And art students have a double whammy of debts between books and supplies. Yar.
I was very proud of myself the other day. I pretty much got my mom to know her place :3. I wasn't a bitch about it, but I had to say something because I was irritated. We were at my uncle's surprise birthday party, and she was asking me about what Scott's doing driving to Florida. I told her he was taking all of his stuff, and bringing it down while we drive down, because he's moving into an apartment(that I neglected to mention kinda >.> ), and said he's going to be moving in after I leave (he's not...he's moving in when we get down there). And she was like, "He's going to be in an apartment next year?", and I responded with a yes, and she immediately said I'm not allowed to go down there next year for Spring break and whatever.
WOW. I love how my mother thinks before she speaks.
Anyways, I snapped and told her to realize that I'm 21, going to be 22 next year, and she needed to stop treating me like a damn child. That it was my money that I'm going to be using to spend to go see him, and she can't prevent me from seeing him, considering he IS my boyfriend (last I check for the past 4 1/2 years...).
She truly has no clue to BEGIN to know what my situation is even like. She doesn't. My mother was never in that position, and because of it, she gives me a hard time all the time about these things. I just don't understand her. Yes, I know she's trying to look out for me, but I need to take hold of my own life. What is she going to do when I move out? She's going to have no one to control. By the time I move out, Michael will be graduating, and probably going to OSU for college, and maybe, just MAYBE Chris will be moving out by then. I doubt it, considering he seems like he'll never leave at this point, but whatever. I just believe that she needs to let me go so I can make my own mistakes. Keeping Scott and myself multiple states away from each other is only going to make it harder.
Okay done ranting~ I swear.
Not a whole lot more has been going on, I suppose. I've just been too busy to be doing things with everyone, and it makes me sad. *sigh* I hate being without a social life ;-; I'm hoping to get everyone together while my parents are going to italy and have some sort of little party or something..hopefully~ :3
