Hi blog. Why is it that my parents are so unsupportive of my ambitions and dreams? Guess what, my dad doesn't even know that I'm taking A levels this year. I can't blame him anyway, since he's been so busy with lots of stuff on his mind. I see him only two times a week now, how cool's that? Today, I told them I'm going for NTU open house, then they ask me, what do I intend to take in uni. Upon hearing design, ADM, they ask me what can I be in the future if I take design. My dad started saying jobs nowadays for design can't go very high, can't earn much blabla. My mom said they can't force me to do anything else cos I'm so bent on taking art already. I understand they're concerned for my future, but they way they put it is just so...hurtful. It's as if they're saying I won't be successful if I do art, but they have no choice but to let me do it because they can't convince me to do anything else. Well I'm sorry I'm too stupid to do science or accounting, and I'm sorry my lousy brain has no interest for law. If I became a doctor, I'll probably give wrong diagnosis and kill my patients. If I became an accountant I'll make my clients bankrupt. If I became a lawyer I'll lose my court cases. I'm just not cut out for all these. I'm sorry mom and dad if I sounded rude getting all angry over whatever you said, but no one would feel good knowing that their own parents aren't supportive of what their child is only able, and wants to do.. bleah. this is such an emo post. bye.
