Clumsy, Clumsier, Clumsiest
Today, Hallie
• Burns tongue by drinking hot tea and continues to finish the cup anyway (it's tea!)
• Slips on the doormat
• Almost missed the bed and landed in the floor
• Nearly falls off the table (why was I sitting in my table? Don't ask because I don't know either)
And more.


If Dad wants to waste his money that badly, let him spend it on my funeral.

Sorry for the late reply Hallie! One, I can’t even remember where my phone rn is so if you’re in no way an idiot. And two, I don’t think it’s selfish at all to steer your group in the direction you want. You created it, and when members joined they should’ve known fully they would be following the plot you set. I can relate to not wanting to be strict, half the time I want to crawl and hide when I have to :P But then again, someone has to, ya know? So often GR groups are chaotic because no one is firm about how it should go, so honestly, I’m proud that you spoke out :)

If Dad wants ..."
I know for a fact I care for you, and I can vouch for a lot of people that do too. But to be honest, I don’t think life should be based on whether people care for you. It should be the wonderful things you can do, be it for yourself and others. It should be loving yourself regardless of what others may say, and the endless possibilities that may happen, good or bad. I know it’s easier said than done and I’m sorry that this probably isn’t helpful, but I hope you know you’re a wonderful being and that you can always talk to me if need be.

Haha that made me laugh xD That's what happened to Witenberg. I was too strict, and I'm just worried that the same will happen with this, but I guess it went okay. If they don't want to abide by my rules, the doors are open even though I'd love for them to stay. So I suppose you're right :)

I'm basically just annoyed with me Dad because he insists on being ignorant and making the wrong decisions for me again and wasting his money. I really, really don't want him to waste his money on something I don't want to do, so I can see two pragmatic ways to prevent it - one of which won't work.

Hmm, did you express to him that you didn't want it? I'm not too sure what decision it is he made, but if you rationalised your reasons for not wanting it would he listen?

Yep. Multiple times. You know, the usual 'why don't you do engineering like your older brother?' Rationalising with my parents of a futile task because they have irrational reasons they think are right.

Literally just got up.
I'm doing okay. Down day today.
