Welcome to the Shrine, where it is not a crime to feel!
Mood: Apathetic
okay, now that's over with, I feel so useless. I was supposed to get calls from my friends, but what good am I if i'm always doing stupid inconsequential errands for my damnable family? I swear, now i can't do a damn thing anymore! stupid old people, always telling me to take care of their shit! This is life or death here, and their barking orders at me to put on my grandmother's shoes or to take the fucking dog for a walk! they have no legal say in my life, why won't they just realize that when I say I'm busy, I AM BUSY! I don't have time for their shit anymore! Leave me alone! I genuinely want to die right now! Help me!

Don't die. You'd be even less useful then.
Insensitive comment aside... You're completely right. Your family treats you like their puppet, but you know, if you refuse to do what they want, there's no way they can legally or physically force you. So, my advice is, get a job so you can support yourself. You mentioned that you're going back to college next semester: Try talking with a guidance counselor (which I still have to do myself) and... maybe she can help you figure out what you want to major in. Oh yeah, and definitely leech as much money from your family as possible while attending college: It's a great way to get revenge.
Look, I'll try to help you as much as I can and you know that, right? But unfortunately, my grandparents are going to put whatever's left over from repaying my debt to Evergreen towards my own education. I'll have Christmas and birthday money to spend as I want, plus my allowance, but I should probably look into getting a job too so I can help you bust out of prison-- I mean, California. Good luck.... and if you must break a leg, make it look accidental and please gods let it be one of theirs.
If you have a problem, DO something about it. You need to MAKE them realise that YOU are the one in charge of your life, and you don't do that by whining. Be assertive. Lay down the groundwork and don't be afraid to tell them, "This is what I, as a person, need." If they refuse, they are not worthy of your company. Leave. Rough it on the street or in a shelter if you have to, but you're old enough to make your own decisions.
