Parent johns. They say I can't go cuz I just went to TO4, and that Boone is 2.5 hours from me. They dislike me travelling that close together (time-wise), and dislike me goin that far away as it is.

At least with the possible date change I can clear my schedule beforehand.

Man, your parents remind me of what my parents were like...you have your own car, yes? They don't have to be in the car with you, right? Then it shouldn't be an issue. You're a freaking senior in high school who is obviously reliable since you are taking AP classes (which is awesome, by the way, I took them my junior and senior year, which ones are you taking?). They are being a) over protective, b) controlling, or c) both (not that I know your parents, but from what I hear, they are acting like mine did). You should tell them that you need them to let you grow up and be your own person. They might be trying to wrestle all the control out of you that they can before you go away to college. I mean, you are more mature than a lot of people on here...

Anyway, excess wrath because of relatedness with my parents. But my suggestion still stands.

Firstly, lol Mask. How's your mom btw? Tell her I miss her.

Craaap, I just got called mature...my previous statement makes me look good huh =p?

Those preceding facts in your wall are true.

Err, took AP English last year (made a 4 on the exam), and AP Biology (made a 5. Woo hoo!). Would've taken AP US History except I hate history lol.
This year I'm taking only AP classes. AP English 12(woman teaching is crazy btw. Can elaborate if you want lol), AP Chemistry, AP Psychology (loooooool so easy), and AP Calculus AB (definately my biggest problem. Math is my weak point).

They're not so much controlling as they are worried about me. They want me to focus on school, and are worried that my involvement in smash will decrease my academic performance (not really, as my report cards have shown. Also, logical arguements here have made me think situations through better).

My mom is nice, but she probably wouldn't listen if I told her that. That's just one of those things she will NOT listen to me about. I've tried to get more leniency, but it comes down to them being worried. Money isn't the real problem as I used to think.

I haven't phrased it like that before, but I'm afraid they'd take it in the way suggesting that I'd be trying to go to tournies instead of study in college then. They've already hinted at their concern on that issue.




After this post, CJ made me sad...

LOZR!!!! Teams is all us bro!

Dr.PP: I don't doubt that they are nice, and while it may be true that they are worried about you, it could be that they are using that as an excuse (I know my parents have done that, ugh). You could always use the line: "C'mon, just this once..." or "I'll do <blank> for a week" or something :p

Good boy BEHR.

Sengin: I'll see what I can do. Remind me of this page closer in the thread closer to tourney time, and I'll at least give it a good shot.

Karn, I've already plotted the weekends (work schedule and all), and it looks like the 24th will be on your weekend. So we could just do that. This also means I probably won't be able to go to TO4 :(. As far as that vacation goes, Adam, we'll see what happens with corresponding tourneys and stuff.

I won't be able to go either.

You're goin to TO4 Lucas bro?

That half the sentence confuses me. Why can't you go since it's the week after? Would you be all smashed-out or something?
Parent johns like PP. Sorry bro.

ZIO: I'll get my stuff together this break, and send it to you whenever you want it I guess. It's your project after all, I'm just a helper.

@ CJ: ..............................................................................................................................................................wow.

That's the most you've ever posted on anything that I've seen.

I'm guessing you're completely serious.

Maybe.

If you are, then I have no choice now but to do my absolute best to get shiz worked out with my parents.

Maybe if I can bump up my low calculus grade...

I'm makin a 91.4 or somethin like that in Calculus. I understand the stuff, but I do dumb things on tests. It's really frustrating...like playing Snake.

Dude Lucas, I know too lol.
