yes how frustrating.
game got canceled. we didn't watch THE MOVIE. we didn't get to go watch varsity. i had the worst practice ever. the assistant coach pissed me off. people pissed me off. everything was off. then i come home and say i want to go to my brother's basketball game. fine. mom challenges me a bit with the whole how much homework deal and then we leave. in the car she throws this whole schpeel at me about my priorities...wanting to go watch alex's game AND wanting to watch varsity's game when i have homework. prioritizing my time so i can go to sleep by 10. yeah right. prioritizing my time so i can focus academically (the nice parent way of saying get good grades). and then she launches into how i'm preparing for the SAT on the 28th and how she needs to talk to my tutor about the "right" way to study. what's wrong with this picture? so let's recap. by now i'm angry and frustrated from soccer practice and all i wanted was somehting to take my mind off before hw. now i'm angry and blowing up at my mom. and sitting in the parking lot alone while they're in the gym. then i go in watch the game. fine. we leave. i leave with my dad. they have been conspiring against me. he launches into his version of the same argument. i blow up all over again. but manage to not cry and regain my calmness and replace it with confusion as he tries to explain how im doing too much and i can't put in 100% to everyhting i do. aka put less effort into soccer and more into school. well, soccer happens to be the savior in my life right now. the reason i wake up, the reason i live. i love it. and they're telling me to not put in so much.
and so now its 9 and i've already eaten dinner but i eat again. and drink tea. and do bio.
all i can say is I WILL GET As this SEMESTER. i'll show them i can have fun PLAYING SOCCER and do well. and prioritize. sacrifice schmacrifice. if soccer's what i love, i'm doing it. i just so happen to not love bio and math and english. so boo.
enough ventilation.
looking forward to 3 day weekend of movies, and no hw. well, now not according to my resolution.
