I hate winter! That's when my mom turns on the heat and when we take the AC off the windows. So instead of sucking in cool air in my room and blowin hot air out. I will be sucking hot air in and blowing super hot air out! AHHHH!!! What should I do?

open the window when she's not looking, heh.
-or-
simply explain to her your pc could use chilly air so if it would be possible to keep the house at around 70-73F it would be great, cause that's really all your comp needs and that's a reasonable temp for winter room temps.

One thing you need to do is get the super heat out of the case. You want it blowing in the bottom front and out both the middle rear and the top (rear or blowhole). You want to move a lot of air which could get noisy or you can build a water cooling setup while you still have time. If I'm reading you right they might not appreciate you butchering the case. If push comes to shove take the sides off and the top if possible and then everything will be at room temp instead of the temp building up inside. Hope that helped.
Looks like you dont have too many choices :/
I would mod the case put some more fans in or water cool the case+cpu it would be great to water cool.

But would the fans really help? I am blowing in hot air instead of cold air!
