yes, mom, im growing up now

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>my mom asked me what i did yesterday at the library and what i ate, so i told my mom that i went to the subway across the street and ate there.</p>

<p>'OMO! ACROSS THE STREET?"
'yes mom'
'weren't there A LOT of CARS?'
'yes mom'
'weren't you SCARED to cross it?'
'no mom'
'but it's a major intersection'
'yeah, but it wasn't that bad'
'i don't want you to do that next time'
'MOM, im 16!!'
'no, you're still my baby'</p>

<p>urghhhhh, and yet even if i'm her 'baby' im not spoiled as other children are</p>

<p>ugh!!!!!! and now she's wavering on her decision to take me to the library</p>

2

<p>That sounds like my parents. Seriously.</p>

3

<p>HAHAHAHHAHA, you are soooooooo o o o korean!!</p>

<p>Thats freakin hilarious. Just say oma, I'm in control of my own life!!!</p>

4

<p>(srgirl6) isn't it annoying? i'm responsible enough to cross streets!!</p>

<p>my mom also said i was a fat baby when i was little, and now i was getting too thin for being 16, so she decided to put extra butter for me whenever she makes dinner!!</p>

<p>it's one thing being pressured to study honestly, but another to .... do that</p>

5

<p>(AOM) are you crazy, she imposes on me a lot</p>

6

<p>My grandparents (both maternal and paternal) are even worse, though. They're always like "You let your 17 year old do WHAT? You let her hang out with people past 8 at night???? WHAT???"</p>

<p>The irony is that next week when my parents take me to visit colleges, they're letting my 12 year old sister and 15 year old brother stay home by themselves.</p>

<p>I smell a massive party with very affluent hosts.</p>

<p>^ hahahahaha, omg tell me how your house turns out after you come back</p>

<p>haha, i have two older siblings, both in college (well, one in grad school), so there's a huge gap between my older siblings and me, but my mom probably likes to feel younger by assuming I'M younger.</p>

9

<p>Ha. I'm the oldest (out of both my immediate and extended family) so everyone is like freaking out whenever I start to do something remotely grown up (like applying to college...lol).</p>

10

<p>Our neighbor will be watching the house so closely, though...</p>

<p>This might me a stupid question but... you're referring to you're cousins correct?</p>

12

<p>Watch he/she live in your house like there was no tommorow! haha</p>

13

<p>Yeah, sorry.</p>

<p>That's partly why my grandparents freak out.</p>

14

<p>I loved the independence I got when I turned 18.
Then again, it's not as if I was living with a dictator before that so it wasn't much of a change.</p>

15

<p>srgirl6, tell them that you're not a virgin
hahahahaha</p>

16

<p>^hahahah omg</p>

<p>johnson, i don't think i'll even have independence even if i dorm in college..</p>

<p>my mom said she'd like to move in a house near the university i was going to go because, um, "by the time i graduate high school, she'll probably be bored by this house"</p>

<p>..right</p>

17

<p>I should, I should.</p>

<p>But it would be a complete lie. I'm the most virgin-y virgin alive.</p>

18

<p>I hate it when parents are like that.
This past year I really like realized why my parents are not letting me do certain things. Like going to the park to study by myself.
It is because I'm female! I honestly never really thought about that before, but one night my father and I were talking. "It's a different world for you." That is just so messed up.
Anyways . . .
I understand the whole mom and you're still my baby thing. Annoying, but I mean to our parents we kind of are.</p>

19

<p>Lol, you're mom is soooooo korean.</p>

20

<p>"It's a different world for you." </p>

<p>HAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHA, that is so hilarious, you have no inkling.</p>
