There are a lot of things make me upset. I know I can handle it, but I still feel upset. Iā€™m learning driving and I have past one of the practical test. I enrolled a university and I have done the homework. I hired a personal trainer and my body get more and more better. I said these and seemed my life get more and more better. But Iā€™m not happy and Iā€™m not satisfied. I think this is because I have a lot of pressure from my parents and my work . My parents want me to get married as soon as possible, and there are a lot of work I have to do. I want to change my life but I feel I canā€™t control a lot of things. For example, I designed my parentsā€™ house but father didnā€™t follow my design and he changed a lot. I said million times that I donā€™t need to decorate the ceiling and just keep the natural but he ignored my words and did it. That made me angry and I felt a deep sense of frustration, and I couldnā€™t sleep very well. So I decide, you didnā€™t listen to me and why I have to listen to you. I will ignore the pressure that you give me.
