Dear Mom:

Do you think I feel good when you call me stupid? Ugly? A pig? How about when you tell me that no man would ever marry me since I'm just so absent-minded? Oh yeah, that just makes me feel giddy with happiness. You have no idea that I cry in my pillow every night. I know that you read my diary. The whole point of diaries are to vent out feelings that are supposed to be PRIVATE! And what makes it even worse is how every couple weeks you go and tell me "Oh you know that I love you, right? I'm just trying to make you better?" At first, I believed you. But after the 100th time of you saying that, I just smile and nod.

I hate parents like that. You should keep your diary in a locked drawer.

Briarwolf sounds like the name of a Warrior cat. From that book series.

I'm no good at pen names, so I'll just keep my mouth shut on this one. :B
xD It does, doesn't it?

XD I love wolves, but I don't want to BE one. o_o I'd much rather have my pen name have something to do with the African wild dog (painted dog), but I couldn't come up with anything good using its scientific name. -_-

I've never read Warrior Cats...I always meant to, but I never got around to it. :/

..Wait. I don't think a cat would be named "Something-wolf." o_0 xD But, then again, I've never read the series, so...I don't know.

The Warrior series about wild cats that live in clans, become warriors, and have battles with other clans. I was obsessed with it for awhile, but not anymore. xP
Usually their names are something like "Cinderpelt", "Fireheart", and "Graystripe"

Parents. I don't like to think about having kids, but if I ever do, which is not likely, it will be for the sole purpose of being better parents than you guys are. Because, no. You do NOT just spring even MORE test-prep stuff on me of a sudden when I'm already taking a private tutoring session for the damn stuff. You do then NOT deny the fact that you hadn't told me until now, four days before the class. When I tell you something and you say "I didn't know that before," I don't say "But I SO told you" or something equivalent to that, I say, "Oh, well, I'm sorry if I didn't tell you before." Come on, guys. This is not okay. Plus, you haven't raised me right at all. I've had your support and that's really nice, but now it's just getting annoying (don't give me that "you're becoming a teenager" crap. just don't. it's not just that, it's that now i'm old enough to realize there is something wrong). You don't believe that I can rely on myself, that you can rely on me. Well, wonderful. If you hadn't been hovering over me for the majority of my life, I would know how to do stuff. In fact, I DO know how to do stuff, no thanks to you. The homework-checking is fine. (Even if you made me get stuff wrong, probably not on purpose but still. Uncool.) The studying-for-quizzes is fine. (It's actually really helpful.) But it's the small stuff that you don't acknowledge me for, the stuff that I figured out all on my own that you try to make me do YOUR way when you don't realize that that way doesn't work for me and the way I use DOES. I am capable of much, much more than you will ever know. I don't show you my writing. I don't need your approval on that. I don't need your approval on many things. I don't really even care. But this has gone on far too long. I'm now used to having a soft landing if I fall. So if my mattress to land on is gone, when I inevitably fall NOW, who will catch me?

US! We will be the ones to catch you. You know that you have friends here, Heather, and we all care about you, and support you.

How would YOU know how I feel?! HUH!??! You say you know exactly how I feel when guess what? I barely freaking know you!!!! Well let me tell you something. You don't know how I feel because you're barely ever around. Great dad aren't you? I've known you for all of my life, but in those 14 years, you've only been there about five of them. You're ALWAYS gone. You're home one day a week and in that time all you do is freaking watch the news and work on your stupid car. WHAT ABOUT YOUR FAMILY? ARE WE NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH!?! And whenever I try to tell you this you just tell me to shut up. You just don't care, do you?

You need a hug.

Absent-minded people unite. My dad kind of jokes about it with me.

Me: I want to be just like Great Grandma when I grow up. Smart-aleck ninety-seven year old. 8D

My dad: It's not hard to imagine you as an old lady. You've got the senility thing down pretty well.

Fortunately, I don't have a diary. My sister does. She has a list of friends, and when she gets mad at our parents, she crosses them off the list. XD

I keep on writing sentances, but I have to delete them. I can't say anything.

Keep going, Calla. Don't let it all bring you down. *hug*

He asked me why he had to do everything and why I wasn't better organized. Well, HA. He's the most disorganized in the family, with me at a somewhat-far-off second, and I don't make him do everything. He didn't even have to check the notebook if he didn't want to, I was just asking. In the end, I got up and brought the notebook over to my computer, but he was still b---ing about it and I just. Ugh. I'm so weak I think I'm going to cry just reliving this in my memories... oh, yay, here come the waterworks.

Oh, Heather... D':

I'm probably going to start crying too. D:

F to the ML.

I know the feeling. It's not better when you're left handed and you're allergic to the kind of ink they use and you have a huge rash on the side of your hand. e_e

My dad is going away for a work trip tomorrow afternoon, and he's going to be gone till next SUNDAY or so, and I'm dying because I am overly sentimental, plus, there is just so much effing damn stress on me when it's just me, my mom and my brothers. I'm dead, and I'll be depressed for the rest of the next week. :(

Hide in your room and eat cupcakes.

Yeah... I know nothing about Dutch names, to be honest.

You guys should know by now that this is me at the computer:

Don't pay attention to when your mom spouts random stuff like that... :^I I have no idea what she's talking about; I don't think she does either.
Best of luck. :/

It's my life, not yours, dad.

Are you learning Swedish?

Ehh... all the job stuff will fall into place as you get older.
When I was younger my parents would constantly talk about what a great graphic designer I was going to be. :^I
