I'm pissed off, upset, confused, lonely, but mostly pissed off.
No matter what I do it seems, my mother will always fucking hate me. Everytime I accomplish something, it's thrown back in my face.
Whatever the fuck I do all she'll ever see me as is absolutely nothing.
She fucking chose her goddamned boyfriend's son over me.
And yes, I know, I'm not the most pleasant person. Especially when I'm pissed off, like I am now.
There's nothing about me that counts as a good trait.
You don't know how happy I was that she finally came to one of my Martial Arts tournaments. For ONCE in my life, she actually, seemingly, cared enough to show up.
The time when I needed her most, she left.
She stayed for the kids' division and watched my brothers fight, but then she left.
I went in the adults women's category, nearly broke. My. Arm. AND had to go up against a PURPLE belt, a BLUE belt, and a fucking BLACK belt. And I ALSO twisted my ankle in the teens' division, prior to fighting said blue, purple and black belts.
She knew this. She knew I had to go against people that were bigger, stronger, heavier. AND MUCH MUCH MUCH higher level than me. And she KNEW I was ecstatic that she had FINALLY come.
But no. The entire time, "when is this over? I have to go."
She left.
I was so fucking happy that she even took two minutes from her busy life with her boyfriend to come see my tournament. I was ecstatic.
I should just be happy that she showed up, even if she was late. I should be happy that she was there.
Yet I'm trying not to cry right now, because she left before my division. I'm trying not to cry right now because she left to go see her boyfriend's son instead of stay and watch boring Martial Arts that she doesn't even understand.
I'm being so selfish and needy right now, it sickens me. I came home and tried to show her my fights I got someone to film for me, and she watches for maybe two seconds before talking to her boyfriend. I'm so fucking needy that it kills me EVERY single time I had a tournament and she wasn't there. EVERY time, no matter how well I do, no matter if I take gold, I want to cry alone in my room, just because one person wasn't there.
She finally came. I should just be happy about that. I should just be happy she actually showed up.
But I'm not. I get one taste of what it's like for her to pretend to care, and I'm craving more.
It's like I'm BEGGING to be disappointed. I should just be content that she came.
Just a few seconds ago, I got lectured by her co-worker. My mom was going to take me and my brothers out today when we got home, but then her coworker and boyfriend decide to pop in and have dinner. And yeah, sure, whatever, these things happen.
But apparently, I'm not allowed to get up from the table and hug my older brother I haven't seen for MONTHS when he comes in through the door.
And what do I do? I get up anyways.
I'm half-Brazilian. In Brasil, we get up and greet people.
But noo. That's taboo, apparently, in Canadian culture. In Canadian culture, you don't leave the table. You ignore the brother you haven't seen in months.
Because of that, her 'friend' starts lecturing me. And naturally, I defend myself. I wasn't even outright rude, I was calmly stating that I got up because that's what I was taught to do. But no.
Apparently, I'm a rude, self-centered, unpleasant, young lady, who openly defies her mother. Oh yes, and I'm argumentative.
I asked for it to be explained how I wasn't allowed to greet my brother, because honest to god, I really had no idea. It was unfathomable.
But that makes me unpleasant.
I'm not allowed to defend myself, I'm not allowed to try to understand why I was wrong, and I'm not allowed to ask for explanations.
What I learned today, about, "Canadian culture," is that I'm supposed to blindly follow orders, NEVER be argumentative, NOT to talk AT ALL, and if you're a teenager, shut up and be seen but NEVER heard.
...That's a load of fucked up bull.
I've lived in Canada my whole fucking life. I was fucking BORN here. You'd think in fucking 14 years I'd have picked all of that up.
Oh yeah, and they also say, I'm a teenager, I'm fighting for my independance and it's difficult because there're a lot of chains and boundaries. Yet I'm not allowed to act like a teenager.
I have NEVER swore at my mother, and never out-right disobeyed her on anything major. Her fucking friend seems to think I don't give a fuck about my own mother.
"Your mother is a dear, dear friend of mine, and it hurts me so much that her children would be so rude to her after all she does. She is such a wonderful and loving person, and if I were her, I would run away from all of this. But I'm sure none of that is cutting through your ice."
I fucking love my mother. Even if you're dead wrong and she's never done hardly anything for me, like support me when I'M UP AGAINST A BLACK BELT, or USE me to get money off of my dad, or yell at me for over 3 hours because I told her I can't hate my father... I still love her. I still love her, even knowing that she hates my guts. I still love her, even knowing all I am is a dollar sign to her.
I can't stop loving my mother.
So shut your fucking mouth. You don;t know anything.
Oh and, I suppose I sound like a teenager still, because I think I know everything and no one else does.
And maybe I am wrong. Maybe I'm wrong about everything. Maybe I'm wrong, and she's right, and my mother had a right to get pissed off because I love my father. Maybe I'm not supposed to love him. Maybe I AM supposed to hate him.
I don't know, I'm just a stupid teenager. So tell me, should I hate my father???
'CAUSE. I. DON'T. KNOW. ANYTHING.
Tell me. Tell me what I'm supposed to think. Tell me what I'm supposed to feel. Tell me what I'm supposed to do.
But I guess, I have figured out that I'm not allowed to get mad. I'm not allowed to talk. I'm not allowed get sad. I'm not allowed to hug my brother.
Let's see if I missed anything...
Oh yeah, I'm not allowed to be me.
So, since you know EVERYTHING and I obviously know NOTHING...
Tell me. WHO THE HELL DO YOU WANT ME TO BE?!?!?!?!
So now I know.
I'm sorry.
Next time, I will MOST DEFINITELY never leave the table to hug my brother.
But thank you so much on correcting my entire life.
Now I know I'm an argumentative, unpleasant, young lady.
...But you know what? I think I am. I'm non-conformist. I don't do things I think I shouldn't. I do things I think I should.
If that makes me unpleasant then so be it.
Here I am, about to be my usual non-conformist self with this statement: I'm not going to change JUST so I can be friends with a bitch.
Oh whoops, did I just act like a teenager there??
I'm sorry. Lesson not learned.
Maybe if you don't insult me, I'll actually listen and never leave the table again.

Those of you who read to the end, I apologize. I need to vent and this is my method. [I have a habit of internalizing everything xD]
Also sorry for the heavy swearing.
