First of January

I gather that if you find yourself unhappy on New Year's Day, it's probably a bad sign. Not that I believe the first day of the year will influence the rest of it, but I wouldn't be surprised if I lived another unhappy year. My mother found out about that 3DS I bought and threw a hissy fit, telling me to return it and give her the money instead if I'm so desperate to spend. I'm not desperate to spend. I've wanted a new console for quite a while, I just had no reason to get one while I had so much school work and a working NDS.

So for the entire morning you have my mother being a complete bitch. I'm sorry I can't say anything nicer, but that's how it seemed to me. "LOOK HOW YOU TREAT YOUR PARENTS. YOU'VE BEEN DESTROYED BY GAMING. ALL YOU DO IS WASTE YOUR TIME. IF YOUR SISTER EVER PLAYS GAMES, I'M GOING TO SMASH ALL HER CONSOLES. EVERYTHING I SEE, I WILL BREAK."

Heh, yeah, look at how I treat my parents. Wait, I shouldn't use the plural form. I only have one parent. And she's being a bitch right now. Apparently I don't have time to game because I have to do household chores and complete her homework for her. Then university starts, so I definitely can't play games then. I'm on the verge of yelling "go fuck yourself". I've agreed to complete her homework for her just so she'd stop nagging me about it (and it's not like I have a choice at the end of the day), but the way she carries on and on about it disgusts me. Furthermore, it's now interfering with my gaming.

It's not that I'm anti-social enough to want to play games 24-7 and not interact with anyone. I just don't want to interact with anyone in this particular family, because they all treat me like shit and expect me to be nice in return. Funnily enough, my needs extend beyond food and clothing--- I have a need for people to not scream in my face when speaking to me, to be polite when speaking to me, and to respond with reason--- OR AT LEAST COMMON DECENCY.

I am really hating this world right now.
