The sea

Here I am, finally.

It's not even summer yet, and the sea is hot.

My God! The sea is hot? Does that even happen anywhere but here? My only memories of the sea from sad little holidays from my youth are of it being windy and cold near the sea. The water was like ice.

So is the sea being hot a Northern Hemisphere thing, or only a Persian Gulf thing?

The sea is also incredibly salty and you float like a poo. It's amazing! I like this part. I said to Felix, if I was to get shipwrecked, I'd rather get shipwrecked around this area. You'd be fairly fucked in the Indian Ocean.

Felix's brother wanted us go to scuba diving, but lordy I am afraid of fish. I have no idea why, I'm not afraid of them when they're in a little bowl, I'll even touch them like that. I just don't like it when I'm in their enviroment and they can bite my toes and I can't easily jump out and scream like a banshee. I'm scared!

It doesn't help to say that they won't hurt me either. If that worked then I wouldn't be afraid of moths.

My 14yo brother, from the computer:

Him: "Why is there RedTube and Xtube and stuff in the history?"

Me: "I've been stalking the fuck out of Tom Gaylord to find his facial video."

Him: "Ok."

My family is used to me.

Uhhhrrr...?

I just took a quiz on Facecrack and found out that I'm an emo. There you go! I wouldn't have put myself into the emo genre. If anything, I would've said I was one of the creepy band geeks who stares at the sexy boy in school and secretly masturbates under her desk.

Perhaps this quiz is only for school kids. When you get older, I guess you turn into a sad friendly person who likes to cut.

I hate *a* parent, but at the same time I'm mature enough to not *hate* him. I love him, but he's too much of a loon to put up with right now. Advantage of being older - When I hate my parents, I can move away. Win!

It also says that I should have some funky colour in my hair, and by rights I should. I've just been putting it off since the start of the year because at the end of the week I haven't had $15 to spend on a Fudge.

Last thing, which is totally wrong. It says I should have about 5 iPods and cameras. No, I don't. I'm not a rich cunts daughter. I don't own *one* iPod. I own CDs.

I'm not cool enough to cut.

Father

So, my dad hates Felix.

It's not just an ordionary hatred of your daughters boy friend, it's way more. He *hates* him. He told me, about 2 months ago this is, that I wasn't to bring Felix to his house anymore. I didn't answer him. He went out, Felix and I packed up our things and left.

For 1 month we didn't talk at all. I fully expected a phone call and a sincere WTF from him, but I didn't. I figured that he understood that he upset me and was letting me cool off.

So after this we start talking again, he comes and sees me at work etc. One day I mention Felix and he goes *very* quiet. "Okay", I think "You don't want to be hearing about him, I won't discuss him with you".

Then comes this opportunity to go to Dubai, because Felix got an awesome job. I tell dad we're going *soon* and he goes quiet again, but I assume he has heard me, and I go on my merry way.

Cut to this week, dad calls up and says "wanna have tea on Friday night?" And I say, "Well, Daddy. I think Felix and I are going to Dubai this week, so that won't be possible."

Que shit-storm. Dad goes nuts. Not only at me, but when my mum went to pick up my brother my dad cornered her and went nuts at her too. So now she's upset and wants me to make happy with him before we leave. FUCK THAT! I'm not going to reward him for calling my boyfriend a CUNT!

Would you, if your parent hated your lover to the core, act happy with them?

It's not only that he hates Felix so much, he also refers to my mother as "The Slut". I don't take kindly to people being rude to the people I love most, I don't care how much you hate them, you love them because I do.

And now I'm moving a million miles away. Fuck him.

Update, in bullet point form!

For your enjoyment. Longer updates coming up.

• I'm now estranged from my father.
• I'm moving to Dubai the day after tomorrow.
• I can't wait to GTFO this country.
• I'm a lazy slag.
• I just ate almost an entire block of chocolate.

Thx, bai.
