Thus, there were a lot of expectations pointed on me. A lot of people look forward to seeing me just as successful as my parents are in the field of writing <a href="http://www.bestessays.com/">custom essays</a>.<br /><br /><p align="center"><img src="http://www.britishcouncil.org/arts-music-graphic"></p><br /> <br />My parents and my brother share the same passion. And yes, I am an exemption to that. I have my own, and that is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music">music</a>.<br /><br />Just before I entered college, my family and I had a fight. It’s absolutely not the usual petty fights among family members. It was a huge one, which almost led to shattering my dreams.<br /><br />They’re all against me, just like what I have expected. A lot of queries and persecutions were handed on me. I was even grounded for a month just because I don’t share the same passion. <br /><br /><p align="center"><img src="http://www.searchenginepeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/goal-objective-setting.jpg"></p><br /><br />I have almost given up. Thanks to my grandparents who acted as mediators. My family understood everything and we reconciled. Today, I am happy doing what I love doing most. I can now say that no matter how tough the road may seem, never give up your <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream">dreams</a>.
