I always feel like no matter what i do, or how hard I try, its never good enough. I'm perfectly happy right now. I have everything I want in life. I'm a senior in high school, i have the best friends, an amazing boyfriend. I'm about to get ready to go to college && things are going great. But my mom ALWAYS has something different to complain about when it comes to me. My grades aren't good enough, I'm spending too much of MY money, I need another job, I don't work enough, I drive too much, I never hang out with my friends...blah blah blah. Personally, my friends are none of her business. I see my friends every weekend. And every day, pretty much. Just because I'm with my boyfriend doesn't mean I neglect ym friends. And I have my OWN money. I have a job, and I do work. It's not my fault they don't schedule me for very many hours. I actually have 2 jobs. She can't manage what I spend the money I earned on. She always tries to get in on ym personal business. And I know she's my mom, and thats what she's supposed to do, but she goes overboard sometimes. I just can't take it. I can't stand to hear a ten minute lecture of things I've done wrong that day. && I'm the kind of girl that bottles things up until it gets to the point where I can't stand it anymore. I've reached that point. I just wish people would elt me be happy. Be happy for me. Because God knows I was extremely unhappy, and now that I actually AM happy, I have people bringing me down. And my mom has problems, like anger problems. Not to where she explodes, but she just gets upset very easily and doesn't let htings go. Somehow, it always ends up being MY fault she's mad or pissed off. I just need one point in my life where I'm totally satisfied, and everyone important to me is satisfied with me. My mom, my dad, my sister, my grandparents, and my friends. But I highly doubt that'll ever happen.
