relativity

it's that time of the year again, and my parents are overseas in asia. that means that i am alone in the states yet again, and if i need anything i have to rely on the many aunts, uncles, and cousins i have in this country, which isn't saying much, since everyone seems to operate on that lovely idiom "out of sight, out of mind." long sentence.

anyway, i know that one aunt/uncle set and their son are currently visiting california, and staying in vallejo, which is roughly two hours away. are they coming to see me? no. do they have any interest in what i have been giving up three and a half years of texas for? no. and before anyone thinks i'm acting incredibly selfish and need attention, i must add that this particular aunt/uncle set needs to have something "in it for them" to actually visit, so maybe my claim is invalid. i don't know. i just wish that those relatives outside of my nuclear family showed some type of interest and caring for why i'm in california trying to make something of myself so i can be someone someday.

it sucks because your family is supposed to be there for you no matter what, yet the only people who seem to care are my parents, and with them overseas it gets hard to feel supported.
