Train ride.

I've never been good at expressing how I really felt with my parents so I never really felt the need to tell them how I feel. Besides, it's a norm in our house. We're not like other families, especially the western families. My family is more traditional and being a girl, there are many things that my father doesn't really like me to do even though it's the 21st century.

So I guess they were pretty shock when I told them straight in the face regarding my feelings.

Money. It's always this issue and today, I finally told them what was on my mind the whole time. I don't see why I can't spend. It's my hard earned money and the worst part is, they keep on assuming that I spend away all my money.

Then they still could give me a pathetic excuse saying that I should save money for my trip to Korea.

Well, you. Don't bull with me. The both of you were NEVER keen on my idea of travelling to Korea next year. You guys had objections so why are you giving me such a pathetic reason? I know you mean well but you should know me better than that.

Oh wait, I forgot. You guys never bothered to know what goes on in my life.
You guys NEVER bothered to ask me about how I felt.
You guys NEVER knew me. The real me.

I never got any support you guys ever since he was born. Yeah sure you did give me my pocket money and let me do stuff like dancing etc but you guys were never keen on whatever I was pursuing, especially dance.
Why can't you just support me? I love to dance. 
You can support him in dancing and b-boying but you can spare a moment to actually give me words or encouragement or support me liking dance? That's favoritism and that's something that the both of you constantly deny doing.

You always assume that I'm this rebellious girl. Seriously? Me? Rebellious?
Wow. I can't help but to wonder how would you react if you really had a freaking daughter who's rebellious like . 

In what way am I rebellious? I got into a decent polythecnic in a decent course. . I got a ing 10 for O levels and you still never told me that you were proud of me. You never patted my head or hugged me saying that I'd made you proud. You never did.
And today, he got a book prize award and you boast it around like he had gotten first in the whole school.
You never supported me in any of my competitions but you could actually take a day off from work to see him compete in his school talent show.
You guys were never there.

Why am I even crying over this matter again? I'm so tired of crying over the same over and over again.
I'm suppose to be crying over boys and how I have yet to get my first kiss but no. I feel like an alien. Maybe I am one. I should blast E.T out loud.No. Not the Katy Perry one. The Toy-Box one. The song is quite old.

I'm just... Urgh. I'm sorry. I'm just sorry if you had to read this but I couldn't vent it out anywhere else. This is the only haven where I can be me because no one that I know personally knows that I'm here. Mianhe.

I'm sorry honey ;( I know exactly how you feel, and there are so many other people in the world who are in the same situation as you. Just stick it out, and I know you'll be fine. You obviously are an independent woman, who is capable of doing many things, even with or without the love of your parents (whether it be hidden or expressed unproperly). Also, I don't know what nationality you are, or what culture you've been raised up in, but for me, I'm asian, and my parents surely don't give a crap about what I do, as long as it's straight A's then it's good, because that's what expected. I've never been praised or rewarded for my grades, but you know what? That's okay, because what we do, is for our benefit in life, not theirs, and not your friends, it's for yourself. Be proud that you landed in a decent course. Be proud that you're doing what you love, and are aiming for goals you want to achieve. Sorry for such a long comment, but I hope this will help make you feel better. xeroxiff hwaiting!

awww im sorry. I wish i knew what to say but i dont because ive never gone through that. yes i felt that same way before, but im the oldest and my parents do care for me in that way. maybe you should have a serious talk with your parents about this. they need to know how you feel.

Can I just say I know exactly how you feel? I feel so tired of nagging of my parents sometimes, and they dont even trust me. Ive NEVER given them a reason to not trust me, its such BS. But try to cheer up, Im sure things will get better. Now that they know your feelings...? They could change their actions.
*Hugs*

Cheer up kay(: I don't think i'm in the right position to give you advice but I really think you should talk to your parents about going to korea and even if they don't like the fact that you're going at least they're not stopping you from it so just go there and enjoy yourself! and you're not alone there my parents don't support me dancing either, they don't even give me money to attend dance lessons...I hope you feel better soon (:

Omo. Dongsaengya. I'm not gonna say, 'Don't cry'. Cry as much if it makes you feel better. I honestly don't know what to say. I hope you'll stay strong. Don't stop doing what makes you happy. Love you lots. *hugs*
