Sigh, so as we all know, Valentine's Day is this weekend. Guess who got grounded yesterday! >:( I was sooo mad. Thing is, the charges aren't viable. I didn't do anything that constituted grounding rights! It's so aggravating. I feel soo bad too cuz now, not only is my weekend ruined (along with the next two weeks of my life), but so is my boyfriend's. He shouldn't be punished too. I mean, punishing me makes him suffer. Especially when I'm grounded specifically from HIM. To make it worse, we have a half day Friday and a FOUR DAY WEEKEND. My parents say I'm grounded for "generally not listening" which I can't say that I have been listening to them like they'd like, but I wasn't doing anything that would warrant this.
Basically, what set it off was my sister. She's ten years old and 100% evil. I was on the phone with my boyfriend, trying to teach my cousin to play video games (he's 1 1/2 years old lol), and talking with my other cousin who's two years younger than me. I wasn't bothering anyone and was being very sociable for once. Out of nowhere, my sister says, "Get out." I looked at her like she was crazy and she repeated herself. I said, "It's my room too. You can't make me leave." Then, just to tick me off, she said she was going to hang up the phone which was on speaker on the shelf. She made a move for it and I got in her way before she got to it. Mad now, she tried to attack me, hang up the phone, and push me out of the room. There was no way I was going to let her hang up the phone and shove me out of my own room.
She started trying to hit me and I kept blocking. I'm basically a pacifist. I don't like violence and refuse to use it. My sister is the ONLY one who's been able to provoke me enough to hit her. Thing is, I was trying really, REALLY hard not to because I didn't want to get in trouble. So for TWENTY MINUTES, I let her come at me and did nothing but block. Over the course of all this, I was kicked in the gut THREE TIMES, recieved a death threat or two, was told MY BOYFRIEND needed to die, was almost hit in the head with a water bottle (I took it and threw it away from us), and was shoved into my bed. STILL, I DID NOT RETALIATE. I threatened to, numerous times, but they were all empty threats; my attempts to make her stop without me haveing to get physical. Before any of this ever got serious, I had called for my parents. My exact words: "Mom~ Hayley's telling me to get out and that she's going to hang up the phone and that my boyfriend needs to die~ And now she's HITTING me!" Did anyone come? Of course not..
I called them AT LEAST four times. They heard me every time. My cousin is kind of timid sometimes and we don't see her that often so she left the room cuz it was making her really uncomfortable. Plus its a small room and there really wasn't room for us to be fighting. She did support me later though. Anyway, after I pinned my sister to the bed so that maybe she couldn't hit me that way, she tried to kick me in the face and throat. I grabbed her ankles just in time and managed to fend her off. Then, my little cousing comes to the door and my mom comes to get him. She sees my sister upset and me holding on to her ankles and decides that I must be BEATING HER. Seriously? Did they not hear me say, "I don't want to retaliate! Please come help me!" >:(
Honestly, if they want to accuse me and punish me for a crime I didn't commit I may as well commit it. I mean, the same thing's going to happen to me either way so it doesn't really matter which I do does it? Sigh, but then I'll be in more trouble more often..
I'm hoping I can get out of it soon. It just seems like this kind of stuff happens a lot. Not necissarily the fighting part, just the part where I get blamed for doing something I didn't because my sister set me up...
Sorry about the complaining. I just needed to vent somewhere..
