Parents have their expectations and there's nothing wrong with that.
Even my siblings have expectations for me.
I'm not talking about other Hmong girls
because everyone is different.
I'm just talking about my experience and me personally.
The pressure of having to be a good daughter
going to school
having a stable job
and finding a good husband
yet at the same time
not allowing me to
go out into the world
and experience it for myself.
It sucks to see other people
doing things they enjoy and love.
Why don't I just do it?
I can just do it but I chose not to
because I want to be the daughter
my parents want me to be
because as a daughter
that is the least I can do for my parents
before I marry.
