Glory's story, Journal 2002,

I feel crappy! Dad & I fought this morning….it was really stupid anyway….I didn’t want to eat oatmeal for breakfast…..I wanted the chocolate & cheese muffin from Fort Lee Main Street. I didn’t think it was so much to ask for. It’s not like I don’t eat oatmeal everyday. Just once in a while….wanted something different. Even if he dad cook the breakfast….he didn’t have to yell at me….If I were able I would’ve gone to get breakfast myself & then he goes & compares me with a 40 year old cancer woman! She has cancer & cooks for her kids. “like …..yeah but she’s how old ?! Geez….I’m only a teenage…treat me like one! All I’m supposed to worry about is school-grades, college! I’m not superwoman! I can’t constantly worry about eating it’s just not what teenagers do! Except for FAT ones. Getting cancer doesn’t mean that I change the way I think….I guess a little but I don’t want it to affect life. So much that I keep thinking that I’m a cancer patient all the time. You know there are moments when I still want a bag of chips & junk food. Just let me be! Anywayz….whatever…..I’m just waiting for someday to come……. so I can go shopping with Kate!
