Yesterday night, I let my mother talk me into trying this new diet drink she got. Tasted good but this morning, I had a terrible tummy ache. I'm sure if I gave you three guesses, you would figure out where I was typing this post on the second guess.
For as long as I can remember, I had an impression of what I wanted to do in future. This dream is not something I mention to a lot of people. Even my mum had no idea. It however involved reaching the highest peak of study and teaching in a prestigious university.
I have parents that excelled in their chosen fields and this makes them believe they know what's best for me. Maybe they do. However, they do not know what will make me happy, I do. The only problem is that I cannot stand up to my parents.
It funny how in every exam I take, I am not trying to keep up with my peers. I am busy trying to keep up with my parents.
When I have kids, I'm going to tell them to set a bar for themselves because trying to reach the bar my parents set for me might just kill me.
