Well...Imagine.


...Now that I look at how I am doing in a situation like mine, I guess I can safely say that I've matured quite a bit since i was...You know, 16 or so...

...Because if such things were happening then, I certainly would have been depressed all over again.


Instead, I think I feel...a bit fazed. Angry. Angry at the fact that I am under an enormous amount of pressure to abide by my parents desires, and they are hardly helping me with it.

...Then, if I am unable to fulfill these desires, which, again...are not mine, I get the punishment.


...


Things could be so much worse. At least my marriage is not arranged, too. It's only a matter of time. >_>

I apologise for how unbelievably long it took me to get to your reply ;____;

Well, I understand parental issues and the whole abiding by desires thing ^^; They're sparing me from the dorama of arranged marriage, but I see my cousins being arranged to marry people and it makes me cringe a little.

I should really talk to you again! x__x I miss talking to you too D: I swear, the next time I see you online and we're both free, talking shall be done! xD;

<3

...I read that... and for a second thought I was reading Lee's journal in SH. D:

That sounds... bad. I want to tell you to live your life how you want, but I don't know the entire situation to say a blanket statement like that... =_=

Yes...Isn't it funny? It seems as though I tend to mirror my own emotions into my character.


...Well...yes, I agree...and this is what I'm trying to do...you know? But...just...forced.

::rocks back and forth:: Sometimes, it's what makes it fun, and other times... >_>

Well, all you can do is try your best! がんばれよ!

Funny enough, but the both of us just have things to worry about at the same time. It's coincidence, I guess. XD Or maybe all these things are happening to him so I can just look at the poor kid and say, 'Hey, my life's not so bad. =D!' XD

As for now, I've tried my best. I just have to take another path until some miracle comes around, yep.

Parents, egad. O_O *hugs*

One must think that having them is so much better than the alternative... though it's easy to forget sometimes. ^^; As for marriage, or any other life path for that matter, it takes so much more than 'arrangement'. Heh... it took forever for my mother to accept that I might go out with someone she hadn't thoroughly investigated first. Pressure from society to parents to people like us... it skews the whole process unless one or more people involved have the backbone to tell society to go hang if necessary, because these things happen in their own time and in their own way, if they are to be handled for the best. */rant*

..gah, I wish I could get on AIM. As the Fifth Doctor said to Tegan, brave heart.

*huggles back* Sometimes it certainly IS best to do without them for a while. Especially my mother...There's no forgetting that.

...This is not necessarily just...societal expectations...but it really is just my parents. If I did not value their opinion so much - or, wait, If I did not want to be seen as some sort of disgrace, then...of course - I would pay no heed to what society expects..
