I have an exam on social inequality on Thursday, and I cannot learn all this stuff. I can't do it! One of the questions will be to outline the evidence that a certain sector of society is (or is not) disadvantaged, so I need to know masses of statistics and theories and studies for different genders, social classes, ethnicities and locations and I simply can't learn it this quickly.

I know it's not entirely my teacher's fault, because to be honest she didn't have any idea what she was doing when she started teaching us and it was easier to focus on the exam we had last week, but even so I am so pissed off to be in this situation. We should have been learning this all year, we should have covered it in class and I should not have to cram it two days before the exam. I could have and should have realised that this was going to happen and started studying harder a few months ago, but I didn't and now I am panicking :(

Damnit. I have been home for less than 24 hours, and already things are getting on my nerves. We usually have dinner a little after 16/4PM, because that coincides with when my parents get off work, and it has been this way since before I can remember. So I get lunch aroud noon, and then assume we will be eating at normal dinner time. Except, my mom decides to be pissed off with my dad because he got held up at work for half an hour, so she's decides that nooo, we won't be having dinner until much later, if at all. But if I head into the kitchen to get something to eat because I am fucking hungry, she starts yelling and being thoroughly pissed off because I will "ruin [my] appetite".. What the fuck? You would think I was like 5, not 22. First of all, being mad at me for eating when I haven't eaten in 5 hours is fucking stupid, and second, if I do "ruin [my] appetite", that's my problem. I will still join them for dinner later, so why is it even an issue? She always complains about being stressed, but jesus christ, there is being stressed because there are too many things going on and too many problems, and then there is making up problems and being pissed off for no particular reason. I really, really, really hope I don't end up like her when I get older.

I feel so, so sorry for my youngest brother who has to live here for one more year.

It's often the same here, for example this morning I came downstairs and mentioned I was going to have eggs for breakfast. My mum's partner told me I could do that, but only if I thought of something to have for tea because they were having eggs and chips and, I quote, "you can't have four eggs in a day, it will bind you".

I don't even want to know what he means by binding, but it is so frustrating. They do things like get two cherry tomatoes out of the fridge for me and leave them on the counter, ostensibly because "they are nicer when they are warm" (actually I prefer them cold) but in reality because I'm not allowed more than two tomatoes for my lunch. The one time I got my own lunch without any kind of guidance they both came in and started telling me I couldn't have cheese and hummus because it was too fattening.

I'd understand if it was a question of expense, or not having much of something, but it isn't. They just feel the need to control every single thing I do.

Gah. Sorry. I try not to rant about my parents too much because I know it's boring and typically teenage but I really can't wait until I move out. I know I'll be living on a pittance and probably wishing someone else was still paying for my food but at least I will be able to choose what I eat and when.

so i am pretty much dead broke, as in i am in the negatives and have no money to do anything at all, ever.  but i've spent like $100 in the past few months on shows.

i am super dumb but these following months of forced hermitude are so worth it.

Parent drama: Reason #149 that I moved out of my parent's house as soon as I could.

(Also, I have been alarmingly unmotivated recently, so I'm procrastinating on the internet instead of getting anything done)
