*sigh* I hate family...they all suck. Let me tell you a bit more about mine... *sigh* I suppose I should start from the beginning, back to when I was born...

My mother was sweet, innocent, and filled with love. My "father" is a completely different story...he ran off on my mom after she got pregnant. I think that was what ruined her the most. Anyway, my mom told my "father" all aout me after I was born; my name, birthdate, etc. I've never met him and nor do I want to.

When I was 10 months old, we moved from safe haven in Oregon to a town in Montana. We went on living quietly, just my mom and I...my grandparents occaisionally stayed with us...or vise-versa. And then that was when he came along. No, not my "father," but my dad. I was four then and overly shy...perhaps because I was used to just the company of my mom and my grandparents.

But anyway, my dad, not my "father," came into our lives. I call him dad just because he's the only thing I have that's close enough for that. My mom and him got married and I was loved a lot by his large family and my own small one.

Then a couple of years later, I was eight, my sister came along...yes, my sister. At first all was good, I kind of lost the attention I got when she wasn't here though. I also kinda lost touch with my mom...

We then moved into a trailer and when my sister was 1 1/2, my parents divorced. It was then that I got more attention from my mom's side of the family...which, might I add, wasn't a whole lot. My sister, however, got all the attention from my dad's side...a.k.a.: a lot of attention and spoiling.

I really didn't mind these past five years of it...I grew acustomed(sp?) to it greatly...kinda floating back into the anti-social style of life. But now, I'm a teenager and am appearently supposed to babysit my sister everyday when we're here at my dad's house...

It's torture! You have absolutely no idea what it's like to be forced to babysit my sister...she whines all the time because she gets spoiled so damn much and starts crying at every little thing, just to get attention.

*sigh* It really pisses me off because I'm not getting paid and I just have to sit there quietly, doing what she asks so I can have some quiet. Also, trying not to ring her neck or just punch her everyday is becoming hard. She's never satisfied. I just finished babysitting her for two weeks before we came here to Montana.

This firs month of summer vacation is being wasted on my sister...I can't take it anymore! I have to work without pay instead of playing and hanging out with my old friends! *sigh* And I think it's all because I'm not blood...*grumbles* How I hate my family so...
