This sounds bad, but allow me to clarify. I need to defy Mommy & Daddy… in order to do the things I need to do for myself. This isn’t about what family members will think. Whether Mom or Dad will worry too much about me. This is about learning to be independent. I can’t do anything right now without asking my parents; either for money, permission, or support. I’m tired of asking permission. I’m an adult by legal standards. I want to be in charge of my own money, decisions, and life. I don’t want to be in school. I want to live in my own apartment, drive my own car, handle my own money, start my own modeling and acting career with my money and connections. I don’t want to HAVE to depend on my parents for everything. And no, I don’t mind the struggles it will take. I’m willing to work hard and struggle to live a real HKL… I don’t mind experiencing it all… the failures, the successes, the lessons. I need to do this in order to grow as a person. I can’t do this “normal, average, young college spoiled kid” thing. I need to have a struggle and work hard for something… so I can be proud of myself. So that when I buy a car, I’m like “wow, this is mine, I worked for this car.” So that when I get in my first commercial, I’ll be like “wow, I worked hard to get here, and I did it. I got a commercial.” So that when I get all of these things, I will have earned it. Mom & Dad didn’t spoon feed me my life, I earned it. And I’m willing and ready to do that.
