Friendship hitting a bump in the road
First let me update you on my life.
SCHOOL: I had to work 120 hours (externship--no pay) for the past month. I basically was at school 6 days a week and working 30 hours a week lol. But the experience was AWESOME! Right now I'm taking finals, I have 2 more to do this coming friday and sat. Then in June I'll be taking my licensure test!!
Work: uhm yeah I haven't been working the past 2 months. Yeah yeah I know I'm such a bum. I couldn't find the time or energy--school sucked the blood out of me!!
Relationship: I can't complain and it feels like i'm in a dream! And we've been traveling like crazy :-D
Friendship: So this friend and I have been pretty close since Junior year of high school. So we've been through a lot together! I remember I'd always chauffer her around from that year until senior year of college! Then she moved to california, where she met her bf, and basically got a little distant with me. I mean we called each other but it just wasn't the same b/c we never got to see each other and she doesn't really tell me about her personal life stories as much. The past 4 months or so I haven't been telling her about my problems or my personal life b/c she always criticizes me for everything I do (well mostly my bad decisions). Well on Thursday, April 24 she asked me about how my finances were going and I told her fine. She blew up in my face.
She doesn't like the fact that I don't listen to any of my friend's advices and the fact that I make poor decisions. I'm sorry I'm only human, isn't that what we're suppose to do? I mean everyone has their right to their opinions and life, we all ive our own lives. Friends are here for our comfort, support, and unconditional love not for controlling our lives and putting us down when we make wrong decisions! *sighs*
It just frustrates me when people take me for granted. I've done so much for her and been through so much together. But if she thinks that her life would be off w/out me then so be it! She said she wants our friendship to go on a break and in 3-4 months if my life straightens out, then I can decide if i want to continue a real friendship. AGHHH!!
Ok I feel so much now that it's off my chest :-D
Today I went to visit my parents and wow I realize why I dont' want to live with them. The minute I got there my mom was fine but she was worrying over the fact about my dad. He PROMISED her that he would meet her at noon, take out some money for her dental appt, and that he'd go to work afterwards. Well, I was making tom yum soup and it was about 20 min before 1pm and my dad came strolling in. My mom scolded him for not keeping his promise and my dad retorted back saying that he's never met a woman who gets that angry over something so stupid. My mom commented, "Well I've never seen a guy who doesn't keep his promises!!"
At that moment I got so frustrated that when my dad asked me what i was making I just ignored him. Anywho, I took my mom to the dentist. I stood there while they extracted two of her teeth out. Wow it looked so painful and I hate seeing anyone that I love in pain :-(. I stayed with my mom til late afternoon and came back home to just relax and do nothing!
