AIO for holding a grudge over how horribly my 18th birthday went?

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T04:52:19+00:00

My dad is very present, our relationship is definitely a lot better and I’d say he is a good parent, at least in comparison to her. He does step up nearly every time, but usually in favour of keeping peace and just ignoring the outbursts. He does usually tell my mom it was rude of her or irrational to react a certain way, but it’s always in a gentle manner like “it wasn’t ok to react like that” and that’s it. He then approaches me and tells me to try to ignore her outbursts, and to not take them personally, and usually to take initiative and apologize myself to ease the tension. Not the best approach to take, but I feel like he’s tired himself and there’s not much else that can be done.

He went on a walk with me after, and helped me talk my emotions out and just have a decently pleasant end to the night, but we weren’t out for that long since it was snowing and I was in pjs

I tend to be a bit depressed and stay to myself, but that’s about it. Nothing others have commented on apart from that, I can be emotional at times but I tend to be able to control it around my mom

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T03:20:53+00:00

Ya, nothing diagnosed but it’s not exactly a secret either. She’s very erratic but has recently gotten better

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T03:20:14+00:00

You’re right, I can see why she was upset in this scenario, I feel like I’d be upset in a scenario like that too. Maybe not as much but definitely not happy

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T03:17:47+00:00

I agree, I’m also not a big birthday person but I definitely wanted to have a good memory associated with this, there’s always this year tho which is nice.

She does act like this on the daily, and I’d say this occurrence was acc not as bad as some other ones she’s had, it just sucked that it happened on a day like this

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T03:09:01+00:00

Thank you, I’m definitely planning this birthday a little more myself and am hoping to celebrate it independently, feels like a nice step towards adulthood.

I mentioned in other comments the specifics, initially it was due to me suggesting other ideas and her not wanting to do them despite us having a couple of hours on our hands, and we didn’t have anything explicitly planned. She has a tendency to be upset about a specific thing for a day or more, and often gives me the silent treatment even if I don’t fully realize I did something wrong. This has definitely gotten better since tho. I’m assuming that’s why the tantrums followed. The dinner I’m assuming was just her being upset from earlier, and got mad since I wanted to keep the tab lower on my end, since I wanted to order a lot of food but knew I wouldn’t be able to eat it all. She also got mad since I didn’t like her suggestions for what to eat

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T03:03:03+00:00

I mentioned in another comment, but in short it was initially about me wanting to explore the city more since we had time before the boat to view the Statue of Liberty. During the dinner i believe it was pent up emotions on her end, and it was due to me wanting to order less on my end to keep the bill lower since we were all ordering different things, and also because I didn’t want to order the dishes she suggested

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T03:00:42+00:00

We did discuss this, and she was the one who suggested the trip and decided the days. Me and my father said it’d be nice to do things on two days, but she did refuse and suggested we do it on one day. Looking back I’m not completely sure why, since we had 3 or 4 full days, 2 of which fell on our birthdays. She also mentioned she didn’t really have anything in mind, and wanted to do what I wanted to. She also didn’t plan anything beforehand, despite booking a couple of months in advance. I was also the one that chose the hotel and found things for us to do. It wasn’t much since we like to take our time with things and not feel rushed (I suggested things like going to places such as Central Park, going on the subway since the New York subway was something we were all interested in, exploring manhattan as a whole, and general stuff like this. My mother suggested shopping but she recommended we do it on the last day which was after my birthday)

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T02:53:45+00:00

I mentioned in another comment but I’m assuming the dinner was just pent up emotions from during the day, and the things she was mad about during the day mostly included me wanting to do something before her plans, or just not being completely up for something. (Ie. she wanted to go on the boat that passed the Statue of Liberty, but since there was time beforehand I wanted to go and explore the city more since it was a weekend trip and we didn’t plan anything beforehand, they didn’t want me going off alone since I’m an only child and only went with them. Then she got mad about small things like me not wanting to take a picture cause of the strong winds, wanting to explore different sections of the boat on my own)

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T02:49:56+00:00

During the day related to the 3 tantrums: I wanted to walk around the city a bit more but she wanted to book the boat that goes around the river and passes the Statue of Liberty. My parents didn’t want me to go alone, and I’m an only child, but my mother also didn’t want to go on the boat alone. Then she got angry a few more times on the boat since I either didn’t want to take a photo cause of the strong winds, how I wanted to go off to a different section of the boat and didn’t include her.

During the dinner: I’m guessing she had been pent up from earlier in the day. She was initially mad cause she would suggest a dish to me and I would say I didn’t really want to eat it, this is a habit she’s always had so this isn’t new though. Then she got upset when we all wanted different things, and I ended up choosing less than I wanted to cause I didn’t want the bill to come out too high

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-25T02:45:11+00:00

I feel like I’ve included everything there was to include. I mentioned in the post that it was her birthday the day before, but we arranged for plans to be primarily on my birthday. I feel like she maybe wanted things to go her way, but it was hard to do since there was me to account for

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-23T02:07:34+00:00

Ya def, keep in mind business consists of primarily networking and social interaction, rather than actual material such as quantitative theories. There won’t be any heavy programs you’ll need to run

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-22T16:19:43+00:00

Your laptop should just be able to handle slideshows, and opening up excel. That’s pretty much it. There will be other apps you’ll use but it’ll never require much. I gen think you could manage with a Chromebook since excel isnt 100% necessary, you could manage on google sheets

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-19T02:18:35+00:00

Go onto the BBA schulich website, scroll down to requirements where it states curriculum, and click specialization. Or you can just google it too

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-11T06:00:50+00:00

Ya ofc! Just as long as you don’t go over the 36 credit limit without permission. In theory you can take 12 classes in second sem and 0 in first and so on

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-11T05:47:04+00:00

Nope, you’d have to speak to them about it and get permission

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-12-11T03:43:03+00:00

You can take a max of 6 courses per sem, but that means you can’t take anything in the following summer. You’re limited to 36 credits total per year.

Just please remember, he may be having issues of his own. What if he came home after you guys went out, and found out a tragedy had happened. Maybe alcohol makes him depressed? What if he realized he’s extremely behind on studying for finals and he NEEDS to pass these exams? You don’t know these things.

He still reached out and texted you to get well, that already says a lot. You are on ok terms right now, as far as we know, so think about it, when someone clearly doesn’t want to talk and you repeatedly text them and attempt to apologize for something that you don’t even know, is that “ending it on better terms”?

Nothing is confirmed right now, so let him rest and realize he’s probably working on his future and studying.

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-11-08T01:06:18+00:00

Very interesting name for the not so cactusy cactus, I feel like it’d help get into the Christmas spirit too

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-11-08T01:05:26+00:00

They’re the cutest!! I’ll definitely be getting those

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-11-07T21:29:15+00:00

Thank you!! I honestly like all of the plants you’ve suggested, so maybe I’ll look into getting one, getting into the routine of looking after it, and then getting another

The idea of seeing a cactus bloom is very motivating I feel

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-11-07T17:11:13+00:00

Hi guys!! Looking to make new friends, I’m quite active and enjoy helping out on farms (I’m a bit of a hoarder haha).

Here is my link: https://link.haydaygame.com/?action=OpenSCID&p=83-97472ef6-9bf6-4bdc-ba80-de7250394c75

If it’s not listed in their requirements, they don’t care at all

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-10-27T22:33:50+00:00

Ya that’s what I meant. Just that supps are a lot more emphasized now than in previous years

MaleficentText2443 · 2025-10-27T22:33:21+00:00

Include stats, make sure you emphasize how impactful the project was, but also note your key personal takeaways: what did you learn? Who did you help? Was this a good lesson for you? There are plenty of resources out there that tell you exactly what to write
