Wouldn't that be a good thing though? It must feel good to get good grades all the time and to know that you'll eventually get on to do a good degree. I would love that.

I'm being serious. You said they only get respect in academics, well I respect them in restaurants too

Prsom. You other reply made me hahahahahahaha

stop i'm being so srs right now lol
i dont throw food at the window you know

Thats how i try to look at it. But good grades dont mean anything after a while. When people are doing 6 a-levels and get all A*s i feel how you feel. Like i just want to be better. I felt completely isolated throughout sixth form. I worked right through lunchtime. All the time literally. I forgot to eat. The joints in my right hand were so swollen from writing too much. I developed depression which has somehow managed to destroy every aspect of my life so even though i have the grades to go far, the feeling that im never good enough means i have no motivation to actually use my skills. Anyway im getting past it, and the fact that im moving out means my parents are actually appreciating me as a person rather than someone to boast about to their friends (attention terrifies me so this was no fun).
Phew sorry, didnt mean to sob like that. Just been a bum couple years. It happens.

Also i realise this doesnt have much to do with being asian.

I might not seem like it lol but you know Will from the Inbetweeners? I'm a pair of specs and virginity away from being him as far as taking my education and academic career seriously. And I'm desi/Indian, not Chinese

hello you.

I am a smart asian who just wants to be smarter so my parents like me. They've decided which degree im doing and i gave in because my dad was giving me the cold shoulder and he was blaming mum for my 'disobedience'. The household runs on my grades. It is the only source of love or happiness.

You have my condolences...

Don't you have any siblings to aid you in starting a rebellion against your parent?

My sibling is not nice and i dont want to upset mum. I dont have a bad life. I understand why people envy me. Ive just had a painful few years for many different reasons so academic expectations felt like a lot of pressure when dealing with other problems. Im sure people can relate.

Why do people envy you? It's hard enough that you feel that the only way to feel compassion from your parent is via good grades..
