yesterday had to be one of the worst days of my life..i know i drama it up here, but it was reallly bad....see, first of all, i had to get my permit. my mom and i accidentally brought a copy of my brth ceritifacte instead of the actual one, os i couldnt take the test. she blamed it on me and screamed at me, and called me names that have no use being used. then my dad drove me later on, but couldnt find the place, even though he was going in the right direction. he blamed that on me.....then i found out this kid who i dont get along with ,and studies with my teacher, won that competition, which totally made me depressed....with my parents calling me names and telling me im a "jack of all trades, master of none" for not getting straight a's on my report card, and for grabbing the wrong certificate(my mom saw it before we left she could've said something.....)....to the competition, it was totally awful.....i actually started crying when my dad was literally screaming at me in the car, and i never cry...what a terrible day. well, from the competition ill just work even harder.
