All I wanted to do was to audition for SM and do their global auditions on May 4th but my mom and dad aren't supporting me and letting me audition. I just want to leave this town and make something of myself.... I don't want to be stuck here my whole life... I want to make a difference in Hmong parent's lives and show them that their kids can do so much more with their life and don't have to do the same thing that they did. Yes I understand that the came to America for a better life and to learn and all that stuff but that's not what I want! Thats not what we want! I want to be heard and  be that voice that Hmong kids never had. I want to be able to audition and become a kpop idol even though I'm not Korean and show Hmong people that their kids can branch out and do more things beyond this so called life you have planned for us! I wish my parents understood and would support me on this. Even though I told my parents that I'm doing the SM audition for "experience" which is technically a lie because I'm actually auditioning to actually make it into SM.... >< I really want to tell my parents my legit reason behind auditioning but I feel like if I do that they won't let me finish and cut me off from the conversation... I'm struggling right now with my current life and recently I have been very observant about my surroundings and realized that all these Hmong kids in my community need a voice. Everybody needs to start learning how to live your life for yourself and not for your parents. You shouldn't have to let your parents tell you what co-curricular activities you should do or what hobbies you should take up, those should be your decision not theirs! My whole life I've let my parents control the things I do and the way I think. Right now I'm going to make a change no matter how hard it is going to be I learned "When obstacles arise, you change your direction to reach your goal; you do not change your decision to get there". I'm only 14 years old but I am gonna push myself to my limit and get to my goal. Our time is now so take action where you see issues, be that voice for a group of people whether it be big or small, help someone in need, make at least one person laugh a day, do good in your community, before you help anyone get yourself together first, and lastly no matter how hard it gets down the road never give up just keep moving forward.
