my 16th birthday in two weeks and having recently switched into a larger social group at school there are more people that must be invited to the party. my original list had 54 people on to. mum had a small fit so i knocked off the people that i liked least. or despised, in gen's case. so then i was down to 44, pretty good, i thought. but mum has her own ideas. "12," she says. XBUIQBXBJKAN,NCLSIGJ249HLKENV. how could that be possible? i can't just not invite people! in our group you must invite everyone, otherwise it's just not the same. plus this is probably going to be the last party my parents'll throw for me because i won't bother having one next year. then mum said, "what about your 18th or 21st?" when i turn 18 i'm just going to club-hop all night. and there is no way i'll still be living at home when i'm 21. grrr...
