A lot of you say that long hair is freaky or scary, whatever word it is, I think that it can be very pretty and seductive if you know how to make it look like it.
My parents do a lot of lecturing also because my gfather was in the military and all the Hmong Community in my city looks up to him. My parents don't want any of us to do anything out of line in case their clean reputation is ruined. I really don't care because I'm not going to subject myself to that and then later in life regret it. I plan on living my life with as little regret as possible. I don't do over the top things just to piss them off, but it's to let me define myself.
When I had decided to move to Chicago to go to school, everyone in our community was like "Oh, she's going away from home and she's a slut!" "A young unmarried woman can't move out of her parent's home unless she marries, it's the proper way." All these comments made me mad, but then I thought about it and wasn't concern about it much. I'm going to get many experiences in life that they're going to miss out on.
