while i do not like my job, holy shit i am so glad that i finally have a plausible excuse to get out of my extended family's yearly gatherings
#usually the cousins on one side of my family have a gathering over the summer and i do not like them lol#not that i dislike my cousins but these trips are way too overwhelming for me#i have a LOT of cousins#the gatherings are usually centered around someone graduating#last year was at my house! cause i graduated#during my actual grad party i spent a lot of it hiding in my room and crying#then had to go out and pretend like i was happy :)#10/10 experience fr fr#i'll never forget when my dad told me that i HAD to make a sacrifice and go on a family trip over thanksgiving (i was v sick)#(a couple days prior i had been vomiting multiple times per hour and could not keep a single thing down)#(by then i had stopped throwing up but i could barely speak)#anyway he was pissed at me because a: i refused to go and be miserable + infect my relatives. and b: because i wouldn't MAKe a sacRIFiCe#mentally#of course that's not visible#and i doubt my family would care if i told them#but it's wild how they didn't even understand that when it had to do with PHYSICAL ILLNESS
