Don't read this if you're in a good mood, because I guarentee it will ruin your mood.
My birthday is this weekend. And as it draws closer, people in my family ask what I want. Well, as you know I've always wanted a Wii. But no. no matter how many times I ask for it, nobody in my family ever has enough money. So, I try and make it easier on them. I look up Wii on the internet and try to find a ceap one. But no, when I do find one cheap, it's a scam.
If I ask my cousin Ginger for a game, she'll only get one she likes, and If I want one she doesn't like, she'll say "I don't have enough money." Which I KNOW is a dirty lie. She draws a crazy check and gets over $1000 each month, some of which she wont even use, allowing her money to build up. Ginger only ever buys for me if it benefits her too.
My mom and dad tell me "Games are stupid, I'm not buying stupid games, they make you stupid." I'm sorry, but I'M the only person in my family, to EVER graduate from High School, other than two people, and High School is 10 times harder than it was 50 years ago, and suddenly I'M stupid? And I'm sorry if something that I like makes me stupid. Well then, cooking makes you stupid mom. Watching Westerns makes you stupid, dad. Are we even now?
Everytime I ask for something I want, nobody has any money, or they're not buying me "stupid shit," or they buy me something THEY want me to have. Since when did I ever believe bullshit? Do they think that because I'm "stupid" that I don't know they're lying? So what's next? If I ask Santa for something HE'S gonna say he has no money?
I'm sick of my stingy bastard family always being cheap toward me. Sure Ginger can buy herself a goddamn car, but I ask her to buy a $15 used game at blockbuster and she says "I ain't got no money." WHILE stuffing $50 in her purse.
I also need batteries for my controller. Nobody has any money. I need something else. No money.
I TRY to find it at a lower price online, the website is a scam.
To top off all my frustration, It's going to rain AGAIN on Saturday, so I can't have the cookout I planned. I REALLY wanted to make smores over a fire old fashioned.
Guess what. My parents were going to be buying the cheap packs of fun sized hershey bars. So I can't even have an old fashioned smore? It just has to be a cheaply made smore.
I'm not even asking for anything for my birthday anymore. I've gotten to the point to where I don't even care if I see my birthday. If my stingy, selfish family doesn't want to buy me something for my birthday, then so be it. I'd rather just not get something than get excuses.
I'm just glad I have friends like

and

who are there for me. I wouldn't dare ask them to give me anything for my birthday. They don't need to give me anything. They're there for me, that's all I need. I loving having the company of my friends. I'll be doing great if I get my family members to realise I'm not stupid and that unlike them, I GRADUATED.
Thanks for reading guys. I really wanted to get this stuff off my chest. And if anybody knows someone selling a Wii under $100, I'd be really grateful. Thanks.
