Pet Peeve

I think I have a lot of pet peeves especially when my parents take stuff from me that I know will make me upset when they take them and never give them back to me.  It makes me sad that my parents know that I like multiple things like airsoft guns and other cool things.  The ones they took from me were illegal which makes me more mad at myself for not buying legal ones.  I only got to shoot my rifle a few times and I never got to shoot the two pistols that I had.  Once I have stuff taken away I sometimes get them back but with the guns, I will not get those back because my mom gave them to the cops.  I am hoping that she will get me more that are legal to use so I can shoot in my backyard at targets and stuff and go up north and shoot squirrels.  I like to shoot things especially when I go up north because we are usually in a big area with a lot of land that has a lot of trees everywhere.  My brain is on fire the second I get them taken away because I was so excited that I would finally be able to have my own guns to use instead of using my friends all of the time.  I have to help control my anger the second the cops come to my house because I can’t get in any more trouble otherwise I will most likely have gone to jail if I was 17 for having illegal airsoft rifles and pistols.  If I was 17 and the cops saw me using my guns even in my own yard I would have gone straight to jail because the cops would not have been to tell the difference between a real gun and my airsoft guns.  This is a really big pet peeve for me especially because when I get in a mean mode I usually go off and start punching stuff to help me calm down, half the time this works and other times it doesn’t so when it happens to be a time that isn’t helping me calm down I usually go out with some friends and try to do some fun stuff with them usually we just end up hanging at someone's house though.

I get mad very easily and a lot of times I need to calm down fast.
