OK Asian Parents. Where do I start.
So well my parents are really controlling. Especially when I was in Brunei. I was in an international school and like half of my friends were like white or mixed with white and everyone spoke with British ish accents even the asian ones. So the environment was more western. Even though Brunei is in asia.
So I enjoyed myself. But... I was never allowed to go anywhere. I was boarding so that was good. But over the weekend i was never allowed to go to my friends house. I mean everyone would be like lets go to the club. Then I would be like be mummy can i go to the club. Then they'll be like go to the cub and do what. That's where all the drugs and alcohol and stuff are. When in actual fact all people do there is swim, play on the beach and just hang out.
But they never understood it. I was allowed to go to one of my friends houses for a sleepover once. It was my first ever and last i think. So yeah i didn't tell them that i was going to the club as well. Cause then they would have definitely not let me go. I never understood them and the club. It was so hard asking them permission to go anywhere. So usually i just didn't bother asking.
Anyways another thing that i faced with my parents is that whenever i asked to go to a friends house they'll be like for what. If i said just for fun, then it'll be like no. So i always said it was a birthday party. And then they'll be like but we dun know the parents, then I'm like well if u never talk to them then u know u'll never know them. I dunno whats with certain asian parents, they have this certain inferiority complex with white people. They think that all of them are racist people. I mean thinking like that makes you a racist doesn't it?
Well besides that they always kinda hated my friends. They'll be like oh so you think that you guys are so close. Wait and see one they they'll just stab you in the back. Well isn't that the case for any race. Its not a racial thing. An asian person can still stab you in the back. Its not by race its by the person if they're nice or not. So yeah.
The incident that happen in school was the peak of all my misery actually. Some gurls brought some drink then they kept in our room. I didn't even do anything. I mean i was just there. Then blah blah. Teachers found out. Blah blah. Then i had to face my parents. I mean i didn't do anything. But they took my phone and yeah. And all my friends had from their parents were like oh I'm very disappointed and stuff. Asian parents always make something small so big.
So now I'm back in Malaysia. My parents are more lenient. But its still so hard to ask them for permission to go anywhere. But i guess some people have it worse than i do. So that is what that's keeping me going.
