... sitting on my bed crying again, because yet again, my dad has blown up at me. On my way out the door I told him what was in my heart and he said "good" almost loud enough to wake up my step-mom and little brother. He said the same thing he says every time I do something "ungrateful" or make him be "on pins and needles in my own damn house" He said something like, "You're in my house, using my damn wireless, blah blah blah..." what I said is "That is exactly why I want to leave and go somewhere I've never been before without anyone I know." And it's true. I always feel after wards like it's my fault and then once I'm laying in bed crying I always think he'll feel bad for yelling at me and he's probably sitting up there feeling really sorry that he just did that. I would now too except for he's done the same thing about four times now. Each time I don't go upstairs or call him or try not to see him for a few days, and he usually turns off my wireless and I am forced to either spend a lot of time hanging around at school in the corner alone or in Panera feeling like everyone wants me to just leave because I always come in and order about $3 worth of stuff and sit for hours getting free refills on my pop. He never does anything to try and make contact me or say he's sorry or anything during that no-contact time.
I hate it. I hate the way he's always talking with me about how he's worried for me going out on my own and how he wants me to know he supports me even if he thinks it's the wrong decision or he thinks it's maybe not the best thing for me to be successful and that he just wants the best for me blah blah blah but then he just blows up on me. He blows up because first I clamp my hands over my ears because the sound of him eating popcorn gives me a strong urge to chuck my computer on the ground as hard as I can even though it's my most expensive and favorite possession. When he asks what's wrong I tell him and then go on typing, and he goes on munching. I spaz my fingers on the keyboard and then he starts. I start to tear up, I look straight ahead, silent, as always. He lets a long pause go by, then says if I get annoyed, I should leave, thinking that it's a warning, apparently, it was a poorly worded command to get out because he starts to yell and I force my legs to work. That's when I open my mouth and tell him exactly what's on my mind. He backs it up by yelling "good!".
I don't want anything to do with him anymore. If I could, I'd just leave, but I don't have a job and I rely on he and my step-mom for a place to live and car insurance and gas money and food money and tuition. I am a lazy bum and I feel so bad for it but I can't even make myself pass my three easy classes. He demanded straight A's. I am getting 35%, 90%, and I am guessing somewhere around 60%. Since a lot of people have helped pay my tuition, including my mom, step-dad, and step-mom, I have to stick it out until the end of the semester and at least try to pass them all.
To further the problems with the situation, my step-mom is being very, very nice and very supportive and she's never gotten straight out mad at me. I also love my little brother and he loves spending time with me.
Good thing I am good at typing because I can barely see my keyboard for the tears that won't stop.
I can't even get excited about John and Hank and TheKatherine coming within walking distance from my house tomorrow.
