Leigh the Testicle Hunter

I used to hate home life. This was about four years ago, but the fact of the matter is that you shouldn't hate home life whether you live with your family, or with a friend, or if you live on your own. Home should be where you have the best of times, not where you feel like you're trapped in some sort of cage forever to be surrounded by misery and hatred. And I know I may seem ignorant at this point because some people can't help having a crap life at home just because your parents aren't as nice as you would like them to be, or maybe you have siblings that seem to torture you, or maybe something happened at home recently that was inevitable but tragic.
You can't help these things, especially when you're a teenager because everything just feels like your whole life is spiralling down  into one big giant abyss; You will experience this in some sort of manner sooner or later. I have to admit that I have had a couple of pretty big downfalls in my life, but that's the past, and I blame it on myself for being selfish. When you get older, you realize that not everything is one big drama, not everything needs to be taken seriously, and not everyone is trying to bring you down just because they're evil bastards that need a knife up their ass. Seriously... They don't.

When you get a bit older, you'll loosen up bit. Even now that I'm in college, I only know two people in my whole course that don't freak out about anything: Me, and my friend Mark. And by anything, I mean absolutely anything. We're so chilled out that we ended up handing in our first business assignment two weeks late, even though for me it was three weeks late because I was too lazy to do it the weekend before (Well, I wasn't being lazy, I was just really agitated because a certain someone was away, and I couldn't speak to them so my reaction was to go hyper crazy and rebel against everything I could - But in a random way of course, none of this was stressed or in anger).
My point is that if someone calls you a bitch, says something that offends you (Or even your whole ethnicity), then you shouldn't stress about it. Just take it on the head, especially if they're your friends because about 98% of the time they're going to be pissing around. They don't mean to be fucking with your head until you want to shoot them, or trying to make you get so angry that you end up punching a wall and break a few knuckles - Trust me, I know people like that, and that much negativity is not good for you.
Me and Mark fuck with our friends some of the time, and even more so with each other because it's fun, and everyone deserves a laugh. He even said to me one day, "By the end of the college year everyone is going to hate us because we're like this all the time."... I agree, but that's only because I'm happy all of the time, even from right at the start of the college year, which is probably why me and Mark are pretty good friends. I was having a right old jolly good time on Thursday afternoon when our college course was watching the Music course perform because me and Jacob were sat behind Mark and decided to fuck with Mark the whole time.
Of course I'm not saying to be totally insensitive towards other peoples feelings and to completely ignore their pleads for you to stop taking the piss, I'm just saying that if you're on the recieving end, calm down and think for a moment: Do you really need to be getting this angry, or upset? Do you really need to react so dramatically? No... So all there is to do now is calm your tits and get on with the day. Simple.

So, home life. I guess it's been better, but I can't really judge that considering I spend most of my time upstairs now. But it's not like I don't get on with my parents and little sister, I just don't spend my entire day downstairs doing nothing. We're a pretty close home family, and I feel really lucky to have such loving parents and a little sister who does as she's told for the majority of the time. (Jessica, if I ever show you this, then I'm sorry but being bossy is my job, and I used to get alot worse from Alex and Zoe. Besides, I have a more personal life... You'll understand when you're older.)
So recently my parents had to make a pretty difficult decision. My mum bought a puppy Border Collie called Chelsea when I was 5, about 12 years ago, and so as you can guess she was getting to the point where she was getting blind and couldn't hear too much. Still, she was a very bouncy and energetic OldPuppyLady, but she was incontinent, and that's not exactly very nice for a two year old and a five year old running around the house. My eldest sister, Jennifer, took Chelsea in about two years ago because she was too old to come with me and my parents when we moved house. So now Chelsea has been put down, and she will be greatly missed.
On the subject of pets, there was another blow to the head when my parents told me and my sister the bad news about Chelsea. About nearly a year ago now, we got a new puppy called Willow, she's a Bull Noodle. (a Bulldog cross Newfoundland cross Poodle - She has a Newfoundland face with the body structure of a Poodle and fur like a Bulldog/Newfoundland.) The bad news is that she has bad behavior problems, and even though we've raised her the exact same as our four year old Miniature Schnauzer, Sofie, she's aggressive and way too bouncy. My parents didn't know what to do, so they contacted the RSPCA, and the only thing the RSPCA said to do was to put her down. She's just a puppy still, but we can't even let her wonder around the house anymore because she just headbutts Sofie and she even growled at me the other day. She has done it before, but dad caught her doing it last time, so I had to admit to it. We all pay alot of attention to her, and she gets sufficient food and water everyday, so I don't understand why she could be so aggressive apart from the fact that there might be something wrong with her because of all of the breeds.

At the end of the day, it's the best thing we can do, and anyway 2012 is going to be amazing. In March, we're getting a puppy Beagle, and she's going to be a predigree dog like Sofie, so hopefully there wont be any difficulties. We've also got a bunny called Yubi and she's got to be the most adorable bunny I've ever seen. She's going to be used for breeding in the Spring as my mum wants to start a business. My dad is also going to be selling wicker figures late 2012 aswell, so that should be fun apart from the amazingness of looking after all the little bunnys and giving them names and taking pictures... It's going to be awesome!

So that's my entire home life, not including the things I do on the laptop, because that's just another story that's going to last another ten paragraphs, maybe more.
