i spoke too soon
i got wool sucks and long underwear! woopiee.... the worst part is that, my uncle, not able to accept failure, starts talking about how it was my fault they couldn't find anything or think up of anything themselves. their shitty presents is my fault. that makes sense. they could at least take responsibility. whatever. i don't argue with drunk people. at least tomorrow, i get to go to my aunt's rich brother's house and play with all of their cool shit. they are real rich people and i hate it when my uncle calls me a rich kid and i don't even get the benefits of being rich. insults wouldn't bother me if i had the money to make it all better. hopefully, some day they will call me rich and it will be true and i won't care because i will have nicer things than they have.
the weird part is that i feel that some of this has to do with cornell. they bring up the ivy league thing a lot, or at least my uncle does. he says it like i'm so snobby, but i never even mention it. i don't know if he's jealous, or just an asshole. either way, the fact that i go to such a school, for some reason means that i have more money than if i went to umich. which is true since umich would have ended up costing twice as much, but i don't think that's what he's getting at, at all. i think that he wants me to fail; to not make it through, or not get into medical school, or decide to change my mind and study linguistics and drift around no-pay jobs for the rest of my life. i usually like my family, but this year, they are making me especially sick... at least my uncle is. actually, its just him. my aunt tries to curb his assholeishness sometimes and my cousin is just fucking kickass all the time and i love him. he's the kind of guy i'd have as a best friend if we lived closer to each other. i revise what i said. my uncle sucks.
