vent

[Tinkerrat]

i just hade a talk with my parents and i need to vent so here it goes
my parents said i should stop posting on the disboards and not make any friends on there it made me mad
then they told me i should hang out with this one girl in my class who they think is an angel but she's not she's a stuck up freak
i tried to tell them this but they wouldn't listen
then they went on and on about how i should get my head out of the clouds by that they mean acting
they told me that i was more likely to be struck by lightning than be an actress
that may be true but from my parents i expect them saying things like you can do it and follow your dreams but i don't get that
thanks for letting me vent so if anyone else has something they need to talk about or vent go ahead after writing this i feel much better

 

[AngelInDisguise]

Don't let your parents make your choices. If you want to do acting and are good at it, go for it!
Hmmmm I don't think I need to vent.

thanks ^

I need to vent.

My parents expect so much of me with grades at school. My mom especially, and I think its because she didnt do so well in high school and looks up to me to finish what she couldnt. I'm going to my second year of high school and my first was kinda stressful for me because I didnt know anyone and was just starting to see the kind of work teachers expected us to do.

If I get anything less than an A its dissapointing to them and they say its my fault for not getting an A or A+. I try my best, but my best just isnt good sometimes. It's hard and stressful living up to what my parents want me to do.

I need to vent about something. Even though it already passed.
In LA before school ended I had to do a radio project. I thought it'd be fun since I want to be a radio DJ. But I was FORCED to be paired with a girl who's in the resource room as me. She slacks off. She doesn't care about school. I checked her grade, not on purpose. She was getting a D in the class. I had to do what SHE wanted to do, if I tried to say something she'd ignore me. :l We did everything HER way. We had intro and exit music. I wanted Country. She's like "EWW! NO! I HATE COUNTRY! WE'RE GONNA PUT WHAT I WANT TO PUT IN THERE! WHICH IS RAP!" So instead of a Rascal Flatts song, we had Tempature instead. Why can't there be a lot of people who like Country at my school? @_@

Never let anyone, most of all your parents, tell you that you can't do something. People only say stuff like that to make themselves feel better. Just because they can't do it, they don't want you to be able to do it. Do what you want with your life. Its going to take awhile, so you might as well be happy with it.

 

[brokenXxXsmilez]

dont let anyone evaah bring u down man!!!
uv only got one life, so if u wanna b an actress--go for it!!

if ur parentz x-pect good gradez... dont do it for them, do it for urself!! if they r dissappointed, thatz their problem--as long as u do ur best, thatz all that can b asked of u. if they xpect more--than they r living in a fantasy world!!!

seriously, u only get one chance at life--u should live it to the fullest and try to enjoy every second of it!! [++i know itz not that easii lolz... i try to think that way, but sometimez it doesnt work]

i guess this is coming from the fact that i just saw I now pronounce u Chuck and Larry, and they inspired me to just b who i am! and love life, no matter wut other people say [im not gay/lesbian... but still, the ideaa stuck]

do the best you can and follow your dreams
if your parents get mad at you for getting a b tell them that you gave it your all and that's the best i could have done, i tried my hardest

i tell mine that all the time because they expect perfect grades from me but i can't do that so i tell them i did my best you can't expect anything more than that

 

[SBubba18]

I am in the same boat as you. My parents expect me to have the good grades. About a week ago, my dad tried to talk me OUT of college. He told me I would never make it to what i want to be. That is a peds nurse practionsher(sp [i can never spell it right]).

 

[CheezDoodle]

You can do whatever you want with your life. If you want to become an actress, pursue your dream.

I can't really relate though. My parents are behind my dreams to become a big cat speacialist 100%, and the only thing they expect of me is to be a nice person and to do my very best at school, and even if that's a D, they would be proud as long as they knew it was the best I could do. But luckily for me, I've never gotten lower than an A, except one B in Band, which doesn't count IMO.

 

[goofyandplutoluver]

Not really a vent but kinda..

I quit basketball. My parents want me to run track. Umm deff. no. They want me to be a cheerleading. Heck no [no offense I used to be one]. They want me to play soccer. I never played soccer in my life and I thankfully missed sign up. But now they wont let me go to the huge school banquet.. which is like in 6 months but oh well..

So next year [not this coming year] I have to play soccer if I wanna go to the banquet [please let my school still have soccer by then]. So yeah basically I have to magically get good at soccer. Because summer is almost over so I won't have time to get good @ it.

2nd Vent thing.

I haven't seen my friends in forever since I quit basketball. Everyone was yelling at me. It wasn't like I was even a starter. I tried in basketball but basketball but my sport so ****.

My old bff since preschool is a b**** I hate her. She makes up lies about me and everyone. But everyone still likes her because her and shayla [her evil sidekick] were "Jus Playin wit us!!111 LOLZZZZZZZZ!" They are honey-butts [long story]. And seriously my old bff "steals" my friends and makes them hate me. I hate her as much as I hate dirty swimming pools.

3rd vent more like a stree-letter-outter or whatever.

My mom hurt her arm and has a sling and I am so afraid that she'll get hurt again. She cant drive so I havent left my house besides going outside all day. I am afraid my mom wont have fun at Disney. She loves Disney and if it wasnt for her I wouldnt be posting this now. My mom deff. cant ride RnRC & BTMR. :[

 

[GirlWithSpunk]

Thanks guys these are all great suggestions.

My parents are strict about grades and I have told them I did my best but they dont understand. I guess I'm ready to face them now, and when the time comes I'll be awaiting and will be stronger.

You should've just told her 'rap is crap' . I would rather be thrown in -30 degree water than listen to rap. But Rascal Flatts = Cool!

 

[disney100666]

your parents can't stop the beat, follow your dreams no matter anyone's oppinion. Go for it, go for what you want, it's the message of hairspray, and I believe, it. and I don't think I need to vent. I hope to see your name on the hollywood walk of fame someday!

 

[Pirate Me]

Do whatever makes you happy.
Walt Disney's dad was against his cartooning but look what happened?

I should have. I told my LA teacher about it, he said to just do what I want to do and ignore what she said. I've NEVER even touched the computer. I wanted either, some Rascal Flatts song, or the HM background music. She was like "I don't know how to put it on! And besides, I already put Tempature back in. Sorry!" Oh let's see how well-behaved we were. Here I was doing some other project and here she was doing dang cartwheels around the whole computer lab. Yes, she's a cheerleader. That doesn't matter though. My Homebase's teacher's excuse was "She's going through a hard time. Something with her parents. So she doesn't care about school."
Okay.....so...that means that my grades had to suffer....?
TG that my LA teacher was really easy when it comes to projects. As long as we have everything we need, we can't get anything lower than a C

I hate it when my parents want me to be the "perfect" child. I took AP Biology last year and that is a HARD course. It's college level stuff, and I struggle through it. I had a low point of a D, but I got it back to a B- in time for final grades. I also struggled through Geometry. I don't think it was that my geometry teacher was bad, I think it was because a lot of the kids in my class were really loud and obnoxious and they just wouldn't SHUT UP! I hated it! So I took a C for that class. My mom had a hissy fit saying that a report card with one C, one B-, and four A's wasn't good enough for her. Math and Science aren't what's important to me in the long run, but I take them anyway even though I don't really have to. I'd rather take another english or history elective class. She keeps trying to talk me out of college by saying that I'll never make a living and I'll never be able to support her when she retires. It's so STUPID. I hate my mom sometimes.

 

[BabyPiglet]

My vent --

Gah my mom expects me to finish freaking four years of high school in a year. WTH? I'm not a miracle worker, and I can only do things so fast. Plus, it's summer now and I'm supposed to be having a break. Good god, cut me a little slack, or show me something that's going to get me motivated.

 

[TinkInPink]

at my house an A- is the lowest acceptable grade. I would put my self in you parents shoes, they just want you to be successful and to them this seems like the right way.
