Jul. 14th, 2005 06:49 pmI am a spiteful, bitter, petty person. I was going to share my AP scores with my mom, but then she started ...
You need to volunteer or get a job. You need to do something this summer. Do you think you'll get into college based on your standardized test scores alone? You haven't scheduled your senior photo session yet. Do you not want to be in the yearbook? And what about those SAt IIs? Better safe than sorry, you need to take more. And what about that random National Young Leader's Conference you got a letter from? Aren't you going to apply for that? If your dad and I are willing to spend the money, why aren't you willing to take the effort to apply? Don't you want to go to a college?
And so on. And so forth.
So I kept quiet and said nothing until she was done.
And then I left.
