so i spent friday night yelling at my parents on how ridiculous it is that just because they get along with me, it's okay for them to pile on the expectations and fault me for the tiniest mistakes i make. not to mention, i told them it's ridiculous that they think i have all the time in the world to do whatever they want but that i'm still expected to pull amazing grades and work part time.

anyhow i think last night it occurred to my parents that i might ACTUALLY be right and contrary to what they think, they don't treat their children all the same.

my mom came into my room last night and asked me what i wanted for my birthday. she INSISTED on finding out what I want and buying it for me because she said she would "feel bad" if they didn't do something for my birthday before their weekend vacation. after i told her i've pretty much bought everything i needed, her reply was "oh that's right, you do make money now."

totally ridiculous.
