I got a genuine chuckle from your post - the "just to spite them" part. Sometimes it's hard to separate those spiteful feelings from a more rational judgment about what may actually be in your own best interest. Isn't this what probably gave birth to the whole notion of reverse psychology? (do you suppose it is part of the derivation of parental paranoia - eg. "they're doing this just to spite me?" )
Why are things to tense now? Mid-winter blahs or is there something else going on with school or them or your treatment?
Sorry for being so nosey.
