First Week of Classes/A Small Rant

Feb 03, 2007 21:14

Well, MY first week of classes has ended and it looks like it is shaping up to be an interesting and full semester. I am actually getting into my health/fitness class, this is just the thing I needed to get myself on a regular exercise routine. My Tuesdays and Thursdays are proving to be tiring and boring, with US history @ 9:30am followed by World Civ II @ 12:30. All in all I am taking 6 classes, one is a mandatory 1 credit computer class which I could probably teach. I'm hoping this semester is going to turn out better than my last one.

Now, on a different note, I have a rant that I just want to get off my chest because it bugs me. Now I know this is going to sound shallow and stupid to some people, it does to me, but it's just one of those things that annoys me. My moms ex-husband Bill (with whom she is dating) just gave my eldest brothers friend, who is living with Bill rent free, a new car. Ok, I understand giving Chris, Kate and Andy a car, well actually 2 each so far, and I can understand my mom getting a new car too, but him, he's not even family! He lives there in PA with Bill and my brother Andy rent free, and while it sucks that he just lost his job, with which he had a company car, I don't see what he gets a new car. I have never gotten anything free in my life (well except my college fund). I have been working for any money I got since I was 10. I never got an allowance, I barley ever got new things because my mom sucks at managing money, I started working when I was 16 so I had money to buy things for myself. I bought my own car, I buy my own clothes, food and anything else I want/need. If I didn't have a trust from my father, I would not be going to college right now, that is the only thing I have ever been givenin life and thank god for it. It just seems unfair that everyone in my family, and aparently people who aren't family, are getting things that they wanted while I am trying to fend for myself. It seems like such a trivial thing, its just a car, but for once I want to be given something, have something in my life be easy and nice and just for me.

P.S. You don't have to respond to that, it is just something that I needed to write to get off my chest and decompress a little, it helps to just get it out on paper.
