I never responded to this lol. No the SS sedan was all me. After I got my first job I decided I wanted a real car, lol. First thing I bought with my paychecks!~


Anyways, UPDATE:

Im going to keep updating this and documenting everything my parents do for my sister... I need a running record of this because I will never remember it all.

This 4th of July, my parents are driving down to Myrtle beach to sign the lease on a $170,000 condo (reallly Fing nice too by the way) and they made a deal with my sister. She can live in it all year around if she pays $400 a month (thats it). She will also be getting the master bedroom since this is a vacation home for my parents. The whole place is all furnished and comes with 3 flatscreen tvs, 3 bedrooms, and was decorated by a professional... resembles a show house model (seriously).

Now I want to ask you all, what does this sound like to you? My dad told me I could go down there and stay there when ever I like. Obviously I dont want to be with 30 yards of my sister so that will never happen ontop of the fact that its not like I will ever have the place to myself right?







I will tell you what it sounds like to me. It sound like they just bought my sister a house. If I wanted a place in the $170k field, I would be spending well over $1200, especially when you take into consideration property tax, electric bills, water bills, cable, etc... .I could go on and on. I ******* hate my life. Im spend about $1200 a month for a one bedroom apartment and Im barely getting by. But since "I have a 40k/ year job" that makes me a millionaire and I dont need any support!

40k/ year is enough for a single person to live with a beater car and shitty appartment with no vacation of any kind... living in MD and working in Delaware means I get to be taxed by two states! thats right! so a $2000 paycheck can quickly turn into an $800 paycheck... I need to get back to work and stop worrying about how fucked up my life is right now... sorry for ranting. Im sure there are alot of people that can definately make $40k work.. I guess the most fucked up thing Ive heard today is that the girl Im training is making $10k more a year than me and shes complaining, lol...

Jeeeeze, i read it all, but it seems like way more when it's listed in one post and when you put it like that lol. Minus the ******* comments, i hope she somehow gets her **** together. seems like it's been a few years since much has been posted. I work for DOL/DMV and used to testify in court over DUI cases and stuff, it gets intense, and she's definitely gotten lucky, in more ways than one. you already know that tho.

holy **** dude...

i know first hand when it comes to drinking some people really never learn. took my moms life unfortunately, bless her soul.

Olybaltss

That's rough man, i'm sorry to hear that :/

riceburner

iTrader: (66)

Yeah thanks man. The two year mark just passed a week or two ago.

It was rough watching it all go down; started becoming noticeable when i was 14; she passed when i was 23...

First off, she is/was an amazing person. Literally filled every room with joy and laughter, and i owe almost everything about who i am to her. She was beautiful and everybody loved her, and she loved them more. Its amazing to hear this and then hear what happened.

Started upon the death of a lot of her close family members. she could'nt take the pain. either that or the stress at home with her and my dad arguing a lot helped. either way she slipped into a bad habit drinking and blaming everything but her inability to cope. It drove her out of the house and into rehab when i was 20. She left there with an enabling friend shortly after getting in (didn't know you could check yourself out of rehab... LOL) and wound up living with him. He's a alcoholic too, go figure, but he promised her the world and she believed it.

Year or two later my dad (who honestly is a great guy) gave up on trying to get her back home safe and divorced.

Then i get a call from my buddy who works at the hospital that she was in there... again...

this time it was serious.

serious liver problems, vomiting blood, breathing difficulty, etc.

Lasted about two weeks, and we got to see her slowly deteriorate and health problems complicate. pretty quickly, every door closed. It was brutal because for years we all tried to help and get her back but it just kept getting harder and harder. Many sleepless nights.

Well, hurts to say still, but the suffering is over.

Olybaltss

It's a hard story, but sharing it with people can hopefully provide enough reason for those that might be at risk to take a second look. I'm glad you have a good outlook/perspective, My family has been through the wringer as well, and it's taken a huge toll on my mother also. Keep your head up, seems like you've done awesome moving forward, and you're still a goofy, positive type guy from what we can tell on here lol.

Congrats on the car running again, by the way!

Sorry for your lost rice, its really hard to loose family specially when you know it could of been prevented, im glad to see your still happy and got lots from her even if it was hard at that moment keep going bro and never give up

Haven07

Wow I read this whole thread...what craziness. Props to you Cuda for Being the bigger man about the situation even when your parents couldn't be parents. I really hope your sister made the necessary changes in her life and is moving forward in a positive way.

And Rice, sorry for your loss I know it must have been tough. It's hard to believe you can be so carefree and cheerful after going through something like that I have to thank you for keeping this forum alive and always giving something for us to talk about.

wow thanks people haha. Like i said she taught me a lot about how to laugh and be joyful. Even when booze took her life it didnt take away her spirit and nothing can take that away from me. If anything i just learned to not go down the same path.

Its so hard when dealing with these situations to figure who or what if anything is to blame. It really sucks through and through because addictions are addictions - i had enough of a hard time quitting cigarettes and weed - and at the same time theres personal responsibility. Then theres the outside factors which may or may not drive one into drugs, or clasp tighter when they want to go away.

The saddest part is after alcoholic loses everything (family, house, friends, job, etc) and now has nothing to lose. Booze ruined it all but now theres no reason to quit. I had a lot of long nights worrying about that and it killed me for the longest time that i couldnt change that. But its over and all i can do is look up and remember every last thing that was awesome about her and everything thats awesome in every aspect of life.

Life really is way too short to worry about shoulda coulda wouldas.

Something interesting about addiction. Kinda goes along with with rice when he says "The saddest part is after alcoholic loses everything (family, house, friends, job, etc) and now has nothing to lose. Booze ruined it all but now theres no reason to quit."

since they were url links, they are likely gone or removed. They probably arent gonna work now. I have a feeling they were public, and now they either were deleted or changed to private. I cant see them either.

Probably something to do with a facebook update as well.


I just went through her facebook photos, all accident photos are gone. But interestingly enough 99.9% of all of her photos involve partying, drinking, or something of the sort.

wow, sorry to hear that. That first big wreck at the beginning of this thread my sister had almost killed her and even though I have a lot of disdain towards my sister and her behavior, I was deeply saddened by the possibility that the last time I was seeing her was in that hospital bed. I lost a friend in a car accident at 17. Nobody knows how it happened, sleep probably, but she broke her neck and was only kept alive on life support. I thought I was seeing it again with my sister that day.


So as far as my sister situation is now. The last accident I believe was January last year in the Elantra. It may have been 2013, cant remember. Shes attending school and her goal was to get into a 2 year nursing program. She was upset last year to find out that the school wouldnt take her because of her history, DUI/ drug paraphenalia charges.

Its been 5 years since those charges and I think she can expunge them or she already has. She is now on the waiting list for the nursing program (I think thats good news, better than rejected)

She lives in my parents condo in Myrtle beach, SC. Works as a waitress or golf cart girl or something. hasnt really improved her position in life but I think her drinking has gotten better. I think she really likes her 2007 Saab 9-5 turbo to much to drive intoxicated in it. She recognizes that you get dings, dents, scrapes, cracks when you drive drunk. You just get too overall excepting with minor damage lol.
