My happy go lucky, I want the world to be better side just snapped to pieces today. I'll give you the short version why.
First off my host family is nuts, not as crazy as my own family but these people are probably the reason I would never be stupid enough to get married and have kids.
My host dad is a real ass, and an alcoholic, and more of an asshole when he drinks, never lived with an alcoholic, well I hadn't till this point and these people are just stupid and anoying.
My host mom is the type of woman who would do anything to help you, and she does for most people unfortunately always sacrificing her happiness and well being, leaving her entirely miserable and worn out and not happy really but satisfied because she is too chicken to say anything.
My host brother are both fully ok, so no problems there.
My host sister (10, acts like she's 5) is a BRAT!!! Every one in the family lets her get away with everything she wants claiming she is just a little kid, she is fucking 10! she should be past the point of screaming to get what she wants, hitting people when they tell her no and eating nothing (and I mean nothing other than!) one type of slice cheese, toast bread, 3 kinds of sausage, nutella, honey, cereal and chocolate.
She creates my biggest problems here, I hate seeing people ruin their children, then they grow up into rotten adults and who the fuck needs that. The problems start at home with her being allowed to do what ever she damn well pleases, her mom not knowing how to say now and not having the will to fight her and her dad going and letting her be 'the baby'. I have come here and for the first few months I couldn't stand her, then I took control where her parents don't, finally told her 'NO' and smacked her a good one upside the head, she respects me now, but every time I want something from her, I have to fight the damn little thing because her parents don't bother.
My problems then are because of my big helpful mouth, and most of the time I should just bite my tounge here, the disfunction for these people is ok, I hate it, they make me want to smack them all a lot of the time, but at least my host mom, brothers and sometimes Katrin are very nice so I feel simply awful for wanting to scream Fuck You All today (I didn't by the way, just said quietly fuck you all, grabbed the car keys and went to a friends to cry my eyes out, much better choice in my opinion)
So for the first time in my life, I am letting go of my instinct to help, and just going to observe as people fuck themselves over, it really pains me to see it, but I end up with more problems if I try to help, so why the hell not.
Other than that, I'm enjoying it encredibly here, off to Paris in 2 weeks, that should be fun. School is easy, everything else is going just swimmingly. So no body worry about me ok, it really is just that tiny bit I wanted to bitch about.
