Parents and boys

I have a guy friend, and this year we grew closer together as friends. Nothing huge and yet my parents still give a curfew and let me know that NO, I can't spend the night as his house >.>
I understand their reasoning and their rules. In fact! I respect them.
I just find it stupid because my parents were allowed to roam free, and hang out with their friends till late at night.
I'm just tired of them telling me no.
I want to hang out with my friend on New Year's Eve. Mom says that's up to dad, because my curfew has always been 10:30-11 depending on how generous my parents are.
I'm just annoyed that they did this stuff and won't let me. :( it's hypocritical and they are the "AUTHORITY" figures that I hastily listen too. Then listen to God through them. That's what my parents are. Also the bible says in Eph. 6:1-"Children obey your parents in The Lord, for this is right."
I know I need to submit and that they MIGHT know more than I.
I find it annoying that's all. "Do what I say and not as I do." Comes to mind :/

So Christmas. I need to go Christmas shopping badly or I won't make it and I'm trying so darn hard to get my stuff done and just it's too much. I don't handle stress well and if you can't tell, I'm stressed and annoyed which is not a great feeling. I work all day tomorrow still have to get a birthday present done and finals coming up.
I don't have college next semester... (Complicated story) instead I have a Lot of testing for school.
I have the S.A.T., ITED (homeschool), then I might have another two. One would be for advanced Biology and another one for something :3 that I don't remember :/

Sigh haven't ranted in a long time :/ anyway. I'll rant again some other time. Anyway thanks :)
