She said it's my job to celebrate my birthday and sent me up to my room.

She tells me that every time. She says I shouldn't expect my friends and family to always remember my birthday and throw me a huge party, especially since my birthday is so close to a holiday. But I don't expect a big party, even though it'd be nice. Just some kind of acknowledgement. Back when I was in school I'd remind all my friends several weeks in advance my birthday was over our break, then when we came back I'd tell them my birthday was over break, and then a part of me would die every time one of them said: "Your birthday was over break?! Why didn't you say anything?!"
Thats terrible :( This year my birthday was ON Easter and we still did birthday stuff on my birthday. I wish your mom was like my family.
I just meant I'm used to people saying 'i had no idea your birthday was over break!!' even though I told them before break.
It might take some staring at it, looking it up and repeating it to myself because I SUCK at remembering dates quite often, but I will not forget.
Ours was built in the 1960's and was last updated in the 1990's. They have to keep repairing/replacing everything. >.< Ours were built in the 60's as government-funded houses for poor people, so we don't have carpet or painted walls. Everything is made out of concrete, and we even have an old-timey water heater. The bedrooms are VERY tiny and we just have hooks to hang our clothes on. Before moving here we had to throw out half of our toys, clothes, and kitchen supplies because they wouldn't fit in here...
I was SO happy when they replaced our toilet, before it would get clogged and back-up on EVERYTHING, and it thankfully doesn't do that anymore.
We also have a gas stove.
What was that 'oh my gosh' for? Lol Mom and I call it the 'Soviet Union house' because it perfectly resembles the cookie-cutter houses built in the 1960's in the former Soviet republics that still exist to this day.
Seriously, I was freaked out my first few times walking home that I'd end up in the wrong house since they ALL look alike from the outside.
I mean, it's a house. There's no vermin or anything, and it's warm. I could live in much worse conditions. I'm freezing right now though since it's really cold outside, and I get cold easily even though I'm in a big woolen nightgown. Maybe I should wrap up in a blanket.
True, but I feel bad for complaining when you had/have the same problems and worse :\What's the temperature there?
Nah, I'm apparently in a good situation compared to most people. 43 degrees currently, but the wind chill makes it feel like 36 degrees.
Proof I'm in a better situation: (view spoiler)
It's because of an atmospheric clog that's affecting the uppermost part of the country. The weather will stall, and temperatures will drop. It'll rain for days on end, resulting in even more flooding.
All that's really happened was me getting an eating disorder, but at the time it wasn't even categorized as a real eating disorder, so whatever. I'm going to make some mac and cheese and drink it while it's boiling hot. Hopefully that'll warm me up.
But now it is *Shrugs* I don't have any reason to complain about anything, really. But I do.How do you drink mac and cheese?
No reason to complain about it when it's already listed as one of three major eating disorders, alongside anorexia and bulimia. It'd make more sense to complain about it back when people didn't categorize as such. Even today there's still a lot we don't know about it since a lot of people see their binge-eating as 'normal' or are too embarrassed to admit to it. Plus you can't really tell when someone's been binge-eating, as they usually eat far away from other people, or eat a regular amount of food with other people, then binge afterwards secretly, which is something I did a lot. Reminds me of a book that came out recently about a girl with a rare eating disorder, and people got upset when in the book she makes fun of people with other eating disorders while she's getting help all because they made fun of her by saying things like: "She shouldn't even be here, she's just a picky eater. She doesn't have an eating disorder,"
I hate to admit it, but that was one of the reasons why I didn't want to get treatment back then. I was so afraid the other girls would mock me, saying similar things: "She just eats a lot, that's not an eating disorder. She doesn't belong her, she's just an ugly fat girl who eats a lot," I already heard stuff like that at school, I didn't need to hear it in the hospital, even though it was highly unlikely to happen.
The mac and cheese I make it really liquidy so when it's hot I can drink it :P It makes my stomach hurt a lot more though.
That's awful. I wish I had known you for longer...I would've stood by your side and helped you when I could if I knew...Ahh. Be careful, both with the hot food and the fact there's cheese :p
I probably wouldn't have listened, I didn't believe I had an eating disorder. Early on I tried to seek help, but people either told me I didn't have one or I wasn't purging after eating. My mom told me it was my own responsibility to deal with an eating disorder, not hers. So I kept my binging a secret from people afterwards and believed nothing was wrong. Notice, I told counselors and teachers and even the nurse at one point, but since they didn't think I had one. I believed it.
That's not exactly stuff you should tell a preteen girl, who is already extremely impressionable as it is. There's a reason people get disturbed when they find out I was only TEN when I started binging.
That kind of mac and cheese gives me terrible stomach cramps since it's super rich :P But I think I'm going to wait a bit and see if mom comes home first since she's bringing me home food.
I meant like, had I known something was wrong and I knew you, I would have at least been there to comfort you, you know?Do that instead :p
Me a few days ago: Five Nights at Freddy's 3 must be SOOO easy, all you gotta do is defend yourself from one animatronic and prevent your character from hallucinating! Me yesterday: SPRINGTRAP IS GONE
SPRINGTRAP IS IN FRONT OF THE WINDOW
SPRINGTRAP'S GONE AGAIN
REBOOT EVERYTHING
DIE FROM SPRINGTRAP THE FIFTH TIME IN A ROW
Yes! I can't get past the third night! I only survived the second night because I did nothing but stare at Springtrap when he appeared in the doorway, since he usually doesn't attack you if you don't move. But on the third night, my ventilation keeps breaking and I have to reboot it so my character doesn't freak out, and when I'm rebooting it, Springtrap sneaks into the office, pushes my monitor down and kills me.
We decided one of her older characters would be their mother, and she'd be a light angel, and our characters are her kids and are storm angels, and their father was some kind of water being.
