It’s Too Late | October 27th 2007

Sou thought out loud in Personal, Music, YouTube

To think that I was supposed to be in Dubai this very second, this very moment. I hate how things have turned out, hate, hate, hate. All my planning, all my excitement…everything shattered.

I’m not being dramatic.

And to everyone who doesn’t understand, I don’t care. Turns out nobody understood how important this was to me - not even those closest to me.

I’ve stopped believing in, “Good things will come to those who wait, ” and “everything happens for a reason.” I’ve been disappointed one too many times to believe; I’ve lost all forms of hope.

Something my friend Yaz said keeps on resounding in my head, I can’t remember the exact wording he used, but he said something on the lines of: “It’s your fault your parents treat you like this now, you never stood up and fought back when you’re younger.” Now here’s the thing, I’m not supposed to fight back because it’s a lack of disrespect, but at the same time, it just doesn’t seem right to sit there, and tolerate everything. I have a voice, I have an opinion, I should’ve learned to speak up. Now, here I am, a puppet. It’s all my fault.

He said that? That’s such nonsense, I can’t believe it..! F*ck man.. it’s so not your fault, you deserve to be in Dubai.. and you will, I’m sure of that.

Yin, I think Yaz’s right, I should’ve at least spoken out a bit instead of taking one verbal blow after the other. I should be in Dubai, but it’s too late. I was really excited about it, I really was. :(

I don’t think it’s your fault, Sou. Some parents are just classic in sense that they enforce old traditions. You can either learn to live with it, or wait until you’re independent of them and then you can make your own choices.

Darling, I kind of agree with your friend. We already had this talk. I’m sure you’ll feel better soon. *big hug*

Parents are parents, to some of them it’s the only way they know on how to deal with their kids no matter and for fortunate some, they tend to listen and be open to new methods.

As they say “boys are boys” and to parents kids are always oblivious and inexperienced which is true to some extent.

Either ways, it’s never too late to vouch your opinion as long as you’re hitting the right buttons and who knows things might be stirred in your way.

Damn sorry to hear you missed out on your trip to Dubai.

My Dad was a complete control freak when I was growing up so maybe I know a little of what you’re going through

The fresh Prince said it best, “Parents just don’t understand”
