I want to go see the northern lights one day.

Just a thought.

I just wasted 30 minutes of my life.

My mother is unreliable. 'Nuff said.

And this is why I stay away from my house often.

Parents. Annoying parents.

I was lying on the floor of my bedroom, quietly doing Sudoku while waiting for my sister to finish showering, when my mom came in. She didn't even say anything. She then kicked me and walked back out without another word. For what reason? Maybe some insane person would know. Was I mad? Oh, yes.

My hand still hurts. And it's not from handball. The swelling went down hours ago, so I'm good.

My dad comes home and I greet him. No response. I think he's still peeved that I came home later. They should get used to expecting it. Whenever they ask me what time I'll be home, I'm not allowed to give late times. So why bother asking? Save both of us some trouble and leave my "before dinner" response alone. But the fact that he didn't respond peeved ME. If I didn't bother greeting him (which I wasn't in the mood for), someone would probably be complaining about it right now. And if I did bother (which I, unfortunately, did), I'd be the one who's peeved in the end. And guess what?

I am.

Here's another thing. I'm tired and slightly fatigued. I want to do nothing more than shower and sleep. When I was just about to get up and go shower, my mom tells me to finish the load of laundry. I don't mind doing laundry, really. But at 10:30PM? When there's no school tomorrow and I have all day to do it?

Screw. That.

Just thinking about this whole ordeal is making feel like punching something else. I should learn how to meditate. I should also learn how to calm down. I should also stay out late. I need excuses. Anything to avoid coming home too early. I really don't like it here. Whenever they're home, I feel like I'm suffocating; it's hard to breathe. I get so angry sometimes, I grind my teeth and I won't notice until it hurts. That's pretty bad considering that I've had braces before. My poor teeth.

Now, before this rant drags on any longer, I'm going to do the stupid load of laundry that some idiots had to save for the late evening. Honestly, siblings were home all day. Mom got home by 4:30PM. Yet NO ONE bothered with the laundry until I got home.

Really?

A few more deep breaths, physical stress-relieving exercises and I'll be fine.

Hopefully.

A Blog Makeover

Like it? Hate it?

I've been meaning to do something about it but never really had the time or motivation to do so. And since today's the first day off from school, I thought, What the heck? I was too lazy to go out and too tired. So I sat my butt in front of my netbook (with the occasional nap-slept for only 6 hours yesterday...how stupid of me -__-) and worked on the new thing you see here. I might do something about the colors at some point though; the header makes the rest of my blog look...plain.

That's for another day.

So yesterday was the last first day of high school, as most people put it. I met all of my teachers and reconnected with many, many people. I don't have much to say about the first day or school. But I didn't get home 'til after 7PM. Amazingly, my mom didn't call 'til after I went underground which was probably around 6:45PM. I wasn't complaining though; it was just weird.

So this wraps up my first September post. I'm going to either make some lunch (yea, at 4PM) or take another nap.

Edit: I'm job-searching right now. I'm hoping some people will take me up on some babysitting offers. The pay isn't bad at all. The hours aren't too bad with my lightweight schedule (or so I think). I want the spending money, and fast.
