Hello everyone and thanks for reading! I'm sorry for not updating yesterday like I always do. My dad banned me from the computer on the weekend so now I'm backed up with commissions and other stuff I have to do. Plus, I was frickin' bored the whole day. TT^TT
[WARNING: RANT AHEAD! Please forgive this entry for being possibly bitchy, BAWW-ish, whiny, unnecessary, boring, rude in some ways, self-centered, self-absorbed, victim-ish, childish, immature, ignorant, and other words I can't think of at the top of my head. I'm just looking for some advice from an outside source right now and I would like to vent somewhere.]
Well, I hope you all had a pretty good Father's Day. Mine could've been better since all I did was fight with my dad. Ironic, isn't it?
I've had this slightly shaky relationship with my dad ever since fourth grade. He was pretty difficult to please, especially with grades, and it seems like whatever I tried to do, it would backfire on me. It was never good enough or just plain wrong. Before I got into high school, he would always compare me to my sister since she got higher marks - and still does - and plus, she acts like him in some aspects. Whenever I did something he didn't like, he would pull my sister aside and tell her not to be like me. I can understand why he would do that but he went too far when he called me "demon possessed" one time. It was extremely hurtful and, to be honest, I felt betrayed.
There were cases where I did deserve my dad's "wrath" but, as I got older, I got tired of being yelled at or beaten constantly and just ignored him. I didn't care about pleasing him with my grades and focused more on pleasing myself. My grades didn't drop, since I don't mind studying and all. However, I did want some sort of outlet, which was my writing as well as the Internet.
Lately, my dad and I have been fighting more because of our differing opinions; he's more close-minded than I am and isn't really willing to learn new things. He yells at me more often and called me a problem child a few times, even going as far as to say there's no good in me at all. He also treats me like the Anti-Christ just because I like Lady Gaga and anime. I know that there can be some bad in both but I'm not focusing on that... I've tried telling him that a person can find some good in almost everything but he doesn't believe me nor does he want to. Just last Thursday, he threatened to put me out because of it.
I'm really grateful to this site for allowing me the chance to express my feelings through writings and even accepting commissions from me. I've made some wonderful friends here and I wish you all the best! :3 I'm tired of fighting with my dad and I want to get along with him, but I'm too afraid to speak my feelings without crying like a baby or even screaming at him for all this pent-up anger. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions for me? Please help if you can. :[
[END OF RANT]
Setting that aside...the college-application stuff isn't going well lately. I keep going lower and lower on the totem pole because of my crappy SAT scores so I'll have to go to a tech college and then transfer to a university. I blame my procrastination as well as my fear of rejection. Dx Right now, I'm just hoping I get to go to college sometime this year. -_-
Commissions and trades are still open so feel free to order! I'm very thankful, again, that I've gotten so many! Thank you to all those who have commissioned/traded with me so far! I will make sure to make your stories wonderful~ 8D
Thanks again for reading and have a great day/night!

Annoyed 
I'm sure your dad only want the best for you and just wants you to be able to achieve any goal you set your mind to.
Comparing never was a good thing... Try to tell him kindly that you get hurt everytime he does that... And also try to talk to your sister and tell her to convince your father to stop acting like that. I don't want to think that she's totally like your father... Maybe, when she compares her marks to yours just to mock you (I have a younger sister, I know what I'm saying
I figure which kind of person your father is and, honestly, I can't stand people like him, sorry
My sis gets annoyed whenever he compares us and we've told him to stop several times. He seems to like comparing things which is pretty annoying. But it would be nice if he did bring up more of my good points rather than the bad. I'm proud of my sis for getting good marks so I can't feel jealous of her at all!
Overall, my dad's a good person. I know he means well but it would be nice if he was more tolerant and did things more lovingly. He came from a loving family but the strictness seemed to have rubbed off of him. You don't need to worry about feeling useless. I thought your input was quite helpful. Thank you!
Ah well, then your sister is a pretty cool lady
Yeah, I know what you mean. My dad is also very strict (my grandfather raised him that way; and lol, why are the fathers always, and not the mothers?
I... I have an idea (it's stupid but oh well
LOL, I'm glad, too. We used to fight all the time when we were little but now we're cool~
Weird. My dad's grandfather was super-strict, too. o: I know what you mean. If only I could think before I opened my mouth. Dx
Aww, that sounds like an interesting idea! It might take a while but I think I can do it! Thanks a lot for the idea! :3
Lol, all siblings do that!
Well... thinking before talking isn't totally a bad thing... at least people can be sure that you'll always tell the truth
I'm glad you like the idea
That's true. You're sure not to lie! XD I like to use softer words, though, so I won't hurt people's feelings. :3
Thanks! :3
I hope I can tell my dad how I feel some day but right now, I just don't have the courage. Maybe when I'm more in tune with my own feelings.
But thank you again!
