Won't you get the fuck out of my face? NOW!

My mom told me that I have two weeks (less now) to get a summer job, or I'd be thrown out of the house, only because she doesn't like seeing me doing nothing (she considers writing stuff that both enlightens and entertains to be "nothing"). I've applied to about thirty different engineering jobs, and I've managed to get a few interviews, but trying my best isn't good enough for that bitch. Yesterday, she made me apply to a retail job. The whole point of me quitting retail was to get a "real" job, one suited to my skills. She said she doesn't care what job I get; she just wants me out of the house. Today, she made me dumb myself down in an email, because according to her, it's a bad idea to say that you've already handed in an application, even if they're going to ask you the question anyway. She's also forced me to tell the occasional lie about past jobs. I'm a man of principles, and I shouldn't have to sell them just to please my mom. I don't even need the money, nor the job, until I graduate, which is when I'm far more likely to get a job. My mom has heard this argument, agreed, but told me that I still have to get a job, or I'm out of the house. I don't know how much longer I can keep myself from putting her in some painful submission hold every time I make a valid point that's answered with a threat.
