Mums side
Good:Stay at home I can act how I act at home and after dinner can disappear to do as I wish

Whatever floats your boat, Hastings beach is pebbley foot death.

Good: Away from by snobby, bitchy, elitist flatmate who keeps telling me to kill myself because I'm 'not normal'

Bad: Back home, so constantly on damage control as my Dad & Brother constantly break every electrical item in the house

Ugly: It's Melton Mowbray, so the Floridian demographic without the decent weather.

No, it's the frosting that my sister insists on having put onto them. Three parts Butter, two parts Sugar, and expired pastel food coloring makes Turkish a very ill little girl.

(this applies to this year only)

Good: finally being at home and away from my racist grandparents, unlike most years
Bad: Not being able to see my awesome cousins
Ugly: my grandma's rotten apple-core of a soul. (you think I'm kidding? I'm not. she disapproves of pretty much everyone aside from short-haired athletic white republicans, to the point where they refused to keep a picture of their only daughter in their house for around twenty years because she had long hair [they still don't have one of me because I'm overweight {sorry for the venting}])
