I don't understand all the things you've seen

Aug 04, 2006 16:56

So today I woke up late so I missed the Creek. GAR! I woke up and then cleaned up. I haven't had breakfast or lunch because I have no appetite today for some strange reason. My mom found some crayons in my room and I told her how I want to color. She said she had some coloring books but she didn't so I got said. I might print some stuff so I can color.  But I might not.

My family is planning to head to the JFK museum and library. So Super Week is going to be extended! Yay 7 days till Super Week.

I am still new to LJ and I really don’t understand the purpose of an LJ Cut. I feel like it really doesn't have one.

Anyway I was thinking today about how much better this summer was compared to last summer.

Last Summer
Boy Drama
Friend Drama
Tears
Fights
Boredom
I was pretty much was cooped up in my house

This Summer
Friends are cool
Better Music
No Boy drama (due to the lack of boys)
Me chillin with Dana
Super Week!

Although Last Summer I got to go to Texas to visit my aunt (she is my favorite aunt) but there was some drama with that too.

Speaking of Texas my parents have been talking a lot about moving to Texas which I am strongly against.
First of all I live in New York and Texas is by no means close by. 
Second of all it’s always hot there. I hate summer; it’s my least favorite season.
Third of all there is nothing to do there. Ok I am sure there is stuff to do there but can you honestly compare New York to Texas? I don't think so. We have the greatest city on earth and they have Dallas which doesn't even compare. 
Fourth of all Say today we decide to put our house on the market it is going to take at least a year to sell the house by then I will already be done with half of high school. I will have to move to a place where I will end up going to some ridiculously big school that was a trillion kids while my current school only has 460 and its a 6-12 school.

But on the upside my mom wouldn’t have to deal with winters anymore. The winter really takes a toll on her health. 
She can finally have the house she really wants. My father can finally get a good job.

I give up so much already for this family. The things this family asks from me would be hard for most teenagers to deal with but I do it every. single. day. I bring it on myself I know but I wonder if I got to have a truly normal upbringing how different I would be and perhaps happier. I give up so much that I want the right to feel selfish just this once. I want to say no I don't want to do this I don't care about anything else, but I can't. I can't do that, I say I don't want to move but I know it would be good for everyone. I would say it isn't fair but most things in my life aren't. I don't dwell on them though because if I did lord knows how messed up I'd be.

Things never go my way including this journal entry.

ETA: Just so I don't leave it on a sad note even though this is really on August 5th. 
I knew I was Schroeder I thought he was the coolest. Everyone was always freaking out and Schroeder was always like "Shut the fuck up I'm jamming to my tunes" Well of course he didn't say that but he was thinking it.
