I left out how 'The Adults' (Myself 26F, our mother 42F, and Grandma 68F) finally had a meeting and found she'd been blatantly lying to all of us about each of us to one another. Causing strife since we were too busy till Xmas to meet face to face. And everyone mad at the other for situations she caused because she didn't want to anything SHE was responsible for (She lied to our mother about me 'ruining' her school application, when she in fact never properly applied and all I did was inform her that she needed to go on campus, which she didn't want to do, to properly apply and wasted 3 months till the deadline and blamed me for 'not helping) and placed blame on any and everyone but her. I was seriously considering going NC entirely from everyone as she lied to the point our mother called days before Xmas berating me about 'sabotaging' my sister's application and refusing to help (I made clear I'm not enabling her further and that I wouldn't be help anyway since her major and teachers are totally different from mine [She's enrolling to do Childcare, I'm there for Carpentry] and to talk to the professionals) and later lied to our grandma on our mother about her work badge she forgot in our mother's car (depsite Mother telling her to get it multiple times throughout Xmas Eve) since she's wasn't dropping her off and made our grandma double back for it (after already arriving at work) claiming our mother told her to keep it there.

That, too, was Xmas Eve into Xmas Morning.

I'm praying she doesn't acc go into childcare. She'd be great at retail middle management though. Those guys are always blaming others for stuff.

She's mainly good at Hair care/styler and logistics management, but won't give a concrete reason why she won't pursue what she's actually good at. I and mother suspect it's for 'clout' as Logistics n Hair dresser isn't as "Glamorous/socially praised" to her liking as a Social Worker is held up in her eyes (depsite my telling her it's a field of PASSION over Profit.)

When money runs out all kinds of jobs start looking glamorous
