I'm so sick and tired of my mom sometimes. I love her and all, and I couldn't imagine being without her, but for crying out loud, let me be me own already! I don't know if she's doing it on purpose or if she's not fully aware of it, in either case, this is making me mad! *feels like throwing a fit*
I've been trying to learn how to drive a car, finally, it's only eight years late, no biggie. (Oh, sarcasm, how I love thee.) At first I had to beg my mom to be my instructor, and 'cause of annoying Swedish laws, I can only have an instructor who's taken a class on it, thus costing a lot of money, thus I only have my mom instead of several people whom I can drive with. At first, it went good, wasn't as hard as I'd imagined, it's tricky, yes, but nothing I can't handle.
And then,,,the snow came. Suddenly it's slippery on the roads, and mom doesn't want me to drive when it's slippery on the roads. *head desk* I have to learn sometime, and it might aswell be now. I could understand it if it was because she's worried that I'll get us both killed, but that's not it. 'Cause tonight I asked if I could drive some tomorrow when we go grocery shopping, and what do you know, the 'but the roads are slippery and icy' card came out again. *grumbles*
1) it's not that bad on the town roads (which are the roads I'd be driving) I was out walking on them tonight, and they've put so much road salt out on them that it'd take several degrees colder to make them freeze, and 2) I told my mom that I can't just not drive for all of the winter, it's atleast 3 more months of it left!
So, once again, she's managed to make me feel smothered. I think that deep down, she doesn't want me to have my own driver's license, 'cause then it'd be one more thing I will not need her for any more. And this is also the reason why I am eight years late with my license, it was the same thing back then, only that time, I didn't even get to drive a car 'cause no one could be bothered to be my instructor!
If she pulls that damned 'it's too slippery' card again tomorrow, I think I'll snap. *grumbles*
I am dead scared of moving so far away from mom and dad that I will have to do this summer, but in one way, it's gonna be sooo good to finally be free. 'Casue I'm not right now, not really.
