Who got a place in college yesterday to do hairdressing.

I know its not 'rocket science' but If I told you about her last year in high school and what shes been through you would understand what a huge achievement it is,

and Im sooo proud of her!!

Good for her! And you sound like a great big sis.

I feel sorry for her though (most of my family dont know what shes been through) and think shes a trouble maker -- but shes just troubled,

She managed to get a 'c' thoguh and nobodys congratulated her or bought her cards like they did when I passed (admittedly i did alot better - but it makes no difference when its family - you just maje a big deal out of whatever they achieve??)

Mum and me got her cards & chocs BTW

perhaps you should say to your mom she got you a card/pressie as all siblings should be treated the same, she did well it is a big thing and im sure with your support she will do well in college, perhaps get her to see if theres a particular book she needs and perhaps get your mom to put some cash towards it!

No its not my mum!!

She knows whats gone on and understands,

but it my nan, grandad, aunties ect that havent said anything to her cause they think shes just bad - but isnt
