First off, before I get into things, I wanna say something-
If anybody wonders why I scarecely update this, here's why: The whole purpose in this thing was so i could get off of servers like ujournal and TOD. (That, and I had nothing better to do with this site.) Anyways, for some odd reason, I have a hard time getting off those servers. So if anyone's interested on hearing about my actualy life rather than my opinions on lif's events, my TOD is Op Ivy Punk and my ujournal is xfallen_starx.
Anyways, moving on...this one's about family. I have one of those families where one day all is well, but the next day we're all about to kill each other. First off, my parents are divorced. At my dad's, there's me, my brother, my dad (no shit), and his girlfriend. At my mom's, besides me and my brother, there's my mom (again, no shit), my step brother, my step dad, and my two half sisters. Crazy...
Anyways, I look at it like family is the people who will still care even when no one else does. But sometimes I think my parents would disown me if they didn't have to love me. Some people aren't that lucky. Some people's parents give up on them from the start. That is one of the biggest things that pisses me off.
In my family, my dad tends to forget about me, and his girlfriend sits around and grips about how useless I am while she sits on her ass and watches the Spanish channel. My step brother isn't the greatest kid. He deson't do too great in school and he does some pretty stupid things sometimes. I feel that because of that, my step dad is always looking to find something worse in me and my full brother. He has less tolerance with us and it seems he always tried to make us look bad. He also has tendencies to be very sexist. One thing he did that really pissed me off was yesterday. It was my mom's birthday, and he had the nerve to scream at her over something stupid! So yeah, that's my family.
What always pisses me off is when my parents tell me I do nothing around the house, but I wish they could see what it's like when I DO NOTHING. Ther would be dirty dishes on the table and in the sink, there'd be trash everywhere, the pets wouldn't get fed, no one would watch the babies, and there wouldn't be anyone to cut off the things that no one else was using. To make my point simple, there's be a lot more little, tedious, time-consuming, worthless things left to do. I MAY do little, but the little I do DOES go a LONG way.
I like this song to describe families too:
[x] The Ill-Spent Conversion: "The Children"
That's when you sat me down and told me there was nothing left for me
In this world of selfishness and bitter apathy
Since I'm so young they can't expect me to see through their lies
Since I was born that's all I've had waved in front of my eyes
Congratulations- your children hate you
And now there's nothing left to say...
"It's not mine anyway"
Without dependence is how I'd like to live the rest of my life
Without somebody else telling me what's wrong and what is right
Since I was born I've had this feeling that my feedoms have been sold
I've had the lord shoved down my throat since I was 3 YEARS OLD
