Ever since I was little, I've always wanted to become an actress. However, my parents thought that it was just a ridiculous dream, and that I'll never make it. Every time I try to talk to them about getting acting classes, we get into a fight. I'm an extremely sensitive person, so I get sad and self conscious easily. My parents want me to take swimming classes, but when I ask if I can take acting classes, they said that acting won't help me in the future, but swimming will. It's not like they're expecting me to be a professional swimmer, and I don't even like swimming. But aren't swimming and acting the same thing? People swim because it's their hobby. And I want to take acting classes because it's my hobby. I've though about giving up my dream, but I just can't. Whenever my parents fight, I get worried and sad because sometimes my dad says that he's going to move out, and he doesn't even have a job. I don't want them to worry about money, so I hardly ask them for more than $10. But when I ask them about acting classes, they team up together and start criticizing me. I can't believe that I was worried about them, but it's not like I want to. I forgive and feel bad for people easily.
