Did Anyone Say Dreamer?

I'm seriously an eternal dreamer. There is no way you can crush that thought. How do I know that?
Because many before have tried. Succeeded for a short amount of time till I've recharged my dreams. That's the thing I wouldn't change for the world! I like that I'm creative and it's strange because no one in my family seems to be. Or at least they haven't done anything about it. Since I got my Canon 600D camera I think I've brought it with me everywhere. I like doing what I do.

My mother says that I'm going a completely different way, as in a negative way. Maybe she says it because it's rare for anyone to go the media way. It isn't considered a very "proud" way to go. Now I'm talking about being a Pakistani girl in general.
You're not becoming a lawyer, engineer or doctor? How are you going to manage to live?
LOL! No, I'm an eternal dreamer and there is nothing they can do about it. At the end, I'm the one who has to study it, to work every single day in that job. It might as well be something I for once find interesting. Photography, Movies and Books. I need nothing more or nothing less. My dad on the other hand he supports me fully! And I am eternally thankful for that! Do you know what my mom said to dad after my first week with my camera? "What about her grades? All she's doing is taking photos. She should be studying!"
You know what my dad said? "She's 18 now, she can do what she want." believe me. There are not many Pakistani parents saying what my dad said! Obviously I can't do ANYTHING I want but what I want to do like in, what I'm interested in.

The other day my mom asked me if I'd finished writing one of my novels yet. It's unbelievable, here she says that I can't write on the week days, makes dad forbid me to write on the week days which leaves me to weekends. And then she asks if I'm finished with it? It takes TIME to write a good novel.

Today she noticed that I'd took my camera to the city with me and she flipped. She threatened to throw it away since I obviously take it with me everywhere. What makes me happy, annoys here. Just to be clear, I'm not gonna change or stop doing what I'm passionate about.

GO CREATIVITY!
