Printing the personal finance career paper right now...So today (as with every other sunday, pretty much) I was "Forced" to go to church. I don't have a huge problem with going, just that it doesn't do much for me. My mom went off on me when I reminded her that George's birthday party was at 5:00pm (the time church started). So I grudgingly went to church with the family. When we got there (really early) it was completly empty, except for about 5 old ladies. I asked if I could go to walgreens quick to get a card for george, but NO! If I did that my mom said she'd "call the cops and lock you [me] out of the house." Mom, you're really encourging of my faith. Don't bother to lead by example. Screw it! I already told her that I'm going to be a buddhist. It's just my opinion that my mom has ruined catholicism for me with her extremist, closed-minded views of everything. After church, I went to George's. There were a lot of people there, and I bet that almost no one knew that george and I share birthdays. But he had the party first, lucky bastard. lol. This is a bad time to have a birthday, though, because this weekend was hectic, this week is spirit week plus homecoming, and this weekend we're supposed to visit my family in dearborn. So I'll turn 18 and it'll be just another day. I guess I'll have to accept the fact that the world doesn't revolve around me.
