"i should have been more careful + cleared the tobacco up from my floor, ripped up the letter and sprayed spray I HATE MY MUM" well anyway she found the diaries and read them.ive got my self into a huge situation bt ive covered my self up with pretty good excuses 4 most of it and it'll teach me nnever to do it again.i just want to be close to my mum again and want her to trust mehelp?xx

To get someones trust you have to earn it. And you earn it by being an honest person and respectable. You also earn it by admiting when you are at fault and taking responsbility for it, not covering up what you did with excuses or lies, and this is what you are doing.
You mum will trust you when she feels that you can see what you are doing wrong and are able to admit to it and deal with it. So first thing to do, is un cover all your lies or your 'pretty good excuses' as you call them. Tell her everything. Yes she will be angry, but you cant gain trust by hiding things, she will always find out and you wont be close.

Apologize to your mum and tell her ,you love her and realized your mistake. Promised , you will not do those things again and will listen to her .
She will forgive you and in time , you won't feel it coming in between you too.
