I realized today why i NEVER, i repeat, NEVER listen to my dad.
He said this to me: "Rmb that even if we get the best tutor for you, if you dont choose between love and studies, no matter how much we pay for your tuition, and now we don't have the spare money to waste on you, it will all be wasted, if you don't choose between love and studies. You know what i'm talking about."
My response?
"Dad, i don't have to choose between love and studies."
My life is NOT centred around studies, and it will never be.
Just because i have A Levels, doesn't mean my entire life has to be in shambles over studies.
Yes, they're important, but not more impt to me than my friends, my God, my boyfriend, and my mental health.
Yes, money is being used here. And i'm sorry that im wasting money.
I'm sorry daddy, that my life morals does not coincide with yours.
Somehow, i think one's capability does not lie with how well one handles one thing, but how well one handles and balances his ENTIRE life.
I wanted to say something mean, but thank God my brain shut down and refused to shout back at him.
But honestly, i feel that it is no use putting your all into work and neglecting your family.
Talk about wasting your life away.
