Obligations. Obligations to myself, my sister, my parents, and everyone else. Everyone I know expects everything from me, and then gets upset when I let them down. I'm not perfect how can you expect me to be everything to everyone? A model student, a perfect daughter and sister, the perfect girlfriend? I'm not some bunch of clay you can just mold into whatever you want. Quite frankly, I'm going to do what I want and how I want to do it, and you guys can all do the same. Don't involve me because I'm gonna disappoint you. Your standards are too high for me to ever reach. And when I don't, you get mad. Let me say it one more time. I'M NOT PERFECT. I'm not claiming to be, either. You think just because I try to please you you can take advantage of me? I'm smarter than that and you should be too. Finally, make sure you're the perfect person before you ever, EVER criticize me.
