yesterday I found out I got into the University I wanted to get into. I was ecstatic...I told my mom and she turned my moment into hers. My bf and friends say I should be a writer. I told my mom this and she was saying how my dad always said she should be a writer. That she read fiction but would only want to write about non-fiction..she didn't even say anything about my writing...she doesn't here me out...she also made it seem like getting into the university was no big deal when it meant so much to me. At first I could tell she felt like i wasn't going to get in...and she didn't think I was good enough. She never said...oh you'll get in fine....when i was in first year all she would say was...how do you know if you failed or not...what if you fail/she never had trust in me...The only person who felt happy for me was my one guy friend and my bf...my dad didn't even talk to me when he heard about it from my mom...my mom only talked to me...She's always complained that she enver got to do what she wanted because she had kids...I don't even think she knew what she wanted to do...first she wanted to be a marine biologist but gave that up because she wanted to spend more time with her kids...now she is old and she says she is stuck at home all the time...and makes me feel guilty for getting an education...I don't have anyone in my life to go to accept my friend and my bf...she just ruins everything...every moment. For my grad...she picked out the dress and the jewelry... for my grad she did the same thing...she never had those things....why is that my fault...she was never my friend, never someone I could talk to about my true feelings...I can't do that with my dad either
