i'm a good kid, don't do drugs, drink, or party. i listen to my parents, get good grades and stay out of trouble. that doesn't really matter to my parents though. i still get bitched at for the smallest thing, be it one lil atom out of place. i'm sorry i can't do it the exact same way as you. if you want it down right to it yourself. don't bitch at me please. i don't talk back to them because they know how to hit a button where it really hurts, my boyfriend. he is away all the way across the country for college. just to talk on the phone with him i have to be cleaning something or doing some kind of chore. when he came home for break i always had to be cleaning just so i could go hang out with him. they like him, but they don't want me to have any "distractions" or be "distracting" anyone. god...if my grades went down or his did, or i wasn't getting anything down, sure, but has any of that happened....nooooo. ugh, so if i pretty much don't do what my parents want, they have threatened to take away me having a boyfriend which is ridiculous. he is one of the only people who has been able to keep me sane will i'm still stuck here in this godforsaken place. i can't wait till all this stupid shit is over. my emotional state is weak and its so hard for me to take their shit anymore. i can't do it. for once i think i'm giving up.
