AH depression has hit!!! my host family is by far the suckist match for me EVER!! Seriously, it seeems that they expected this perfect person, meaning that i LOVE to do homework, LOVE to clean my room every freakin day, and HATE to go out on Saturday night and have fun. SO guess what, thats not me, and now they go and talk to my real parents and make things seem ten times worse then they realy are, god i hate these ppl, its not cool, and i have 5 more months with them, ARGH! hmm, im sorry i know this is off topic, but i really need somewhere to vent, and concidering m stuck here with THEM, i got no one. I just hope this doesnt effect my goals and my motivation...

i guess, i dont know exactly your situation, but i think while your living under their house, you'll have to go by their rule, because your their guest, and they are going way above and beyond by allowing you to live with them. sure, you should be allowed to go out and party sometimes, but you shouldnt be drinking, and if your hosts have a curfew, you have to deal with it because its their house, not yours, if they keep the rest of their house clean, you should keep your room clean, since its part of their house. I was raised to follow the rules of whatever household you are a guest of, even if they differ from your own, probably not what you wanted to here but just remember that them taking on another child when they dont have to so you can have a different experience is a huge deal and you should be greatful

try exercising to let off some steam. its good for you, and you host family knows it. theyll think your more matching to "miss perfect" than if you do nothing all day. Theyll think "YES! we have a healthy one!"
