It's so annoying. I simply don't understand why my parents are treading so closely on my toes lately. I feel like I'm treated more like a young kid then a 19 year old. They think that I don't know the concern that they have for me. They think that by going to the gym, I'm going to get involved with some man. SERIOUSLY?!

Already I respect their wishes about staying out late or even going clubbing/pubbing. I don't. I get teased at in school for sticking up to my moral principles but all my parents see is me trying to rebel because I just want to feed my curiousity. I don't want to be a green horn all my life. I mean I have my own personal convictions about drinking - not to drink for leisure but only for purely business entertainment when the need arises. If I can run away from all these, I would.

Why do they judge me for something I'm not? Yes, I may want certain material things but look, I don't necessarily get them. My handphone is one. I have settled to use the second hand phones when my phones are spoilt, letting my dad buy the new ones. Then when it comes to me signing up for the gym, they think that I'm being influenced by my peers when fact is, I have been thinking about it for a long time already. I just wish they would know me better. It;s hard to communicate with them and what's worse, they already have pre-conception of me that it's hard to get rid off.

You may say that you know everything because this is the area you work in but do you really know me? DO you know that you hurt me at times too? Seriously, will we ever get the chance to speak properly.

Internship is settled. Suntec City Convention Centre, working in the marketing communications department. Pay may not be high but I guess I just gotta grit my teeth and get through with it. My mantra for this period of time = LEARN,LEARN,LEARN.
