Cherry-chan:
My mother never fails to express her emotion and anger. Sometimes she's nice and will listen, other times she yells and is so snappy and expects you to know everything if you ask her something. My mom has an awful lot of mood swings, so when I know she's in a bad mood, I try to avoid her as much as possible. But usually when she is in a bad mood she notices me and makes me do all the chores and makes me feel guilty for not helping out.

I'm scared to do stuff when she's around because she can be really critical, and sometimes she just plain doesn't approve of the things I spend my time on.
I'm putting a documentary together right now, and it's really hard to find time to it when I don't have to be afraid of her walking in and dissing on it. >.<

Oh, my mother does that all the time. She is completely convinced that I want to become a teacher just so I can get back at her for homeschooling me so she puts me down. For instance, she'll talk to me like I'm 5 years old, and I'll say in a calm, but angry tone, "Mom, I told you; quit talking to me like I'm a child. I don't appreciate it." and then she'll either ignore me, which I hate  :angry: or she'll say something to get me to yell. She will do anything to get me to yell, and when I do yell she'll say, "How can you expect to become a teacher if you can't control your temper. If you yell at me, you'll yell at your students."
That's when I'll say, "Oh, don't worry; I won't yell at my students because they won't be 65 year old women that act like they're 10!" or something along those lines. That's when dad butts in, and says that I'm such a child and I don't deserve to be a teacher. He only butts in when mom is losing the fight. Â -_- I can't stand either one of them.

Oh, mother does that to me ALL the time! I'm the only one to do the laundry in the house. If I go a week without doing it, then we wouldn't have any clothes! And then my mom says I'm lazy and I don't do anything to help. Although she doesn't do anything either. I can't wait until I graduate, or win the lottery, and move out. I can't stand living at home.

Thats the way my mother is. She's very critical and expects the best out of me because I'm the oldest child in the family and therefore set examples for my younger sisters. I've been held up to higher standards and before, a B on my report card was met with frowns and 'You can do better than that'. My younger sister, who admittedly isn't as smart as me (because I have excellent memory skills, and so I'm a really good test taker), brings home a C and they say 'Keep up the good work, we know you'll get there.' My mother more than my father wants me to be the very epitome of perfection, because she thinks that just because I'm smart that I want to spend my entire life studying and becoming a perfect little student. I do want good grades and I want to be something when I'm older, but along the way I want to have a bit of spontaneous fun too.
With her it seems like everything just has to be by the book perfect, like our chores and the house and our grades and my life...
Cherry-chan:
I know exactly how you feel! I'm so pressured because all of my older sisters are on the honor roll and have SUPER high marks... so I feel that I have to do the same as well. Meh. Stupid me. I need more self-disipline because I said that I'd finish my homework early in the March Break and March break is almost over and I have only done about 33.3% of all my homework... *sobs* I'm horrible. I should start hurting myself every time I procrastinate! P.S. My fanfics have been doing so well, I'm so distracted by them.
Cherry-chan is currently: Distraught.
AkaiYuki:
Ah, don't worry, Cherry-chan... Yuki procrastinates, too... -_- I'm in a medical class and I need to do about 20 virtual autopsies by Tuesday, and I've only done one! XD
I also have a KILLER math test on Monday which I haven't even started studying for, yet... *sweat drop* I'm doomed..
