I’m so sick

of people judging me.

I’m so sick of the slight condescendence in their voices when they ask me about my future.

I’m so sick of everyone telling me what I’m supossed to do, and putting me down because, yeah, I made a bad decision and took it back and now I’m a lot happier and yes, that might not fit your narrow idea of who I should be but it does fit mine, and I’m OK with that.

I’m sooooo unbelievably sick of having to answer their questions when they say “What are you studying again?” and I’m sooo sick of them asking me if I like it, as if I had just randomly picked a career to jump into without any previous thought, without any emotional breakdowns or inner questionings of my own identity, as if it had been the easiest thing to do, the most obvious path, just because my mom happens to be in the same career path.

And I guess I’ll have to deal with this my whole life, unless I change my mind again.
