I learned that my mother considers my dream a 'hobby'.
I'll look at the silver lining though - at least they don't stop me.


At least you have a dream; I just picked something I was good at.
And my parents are more like the opposite of your mom regarding the "what-are-you-going-with-your-life" thing; I haven't even started writing my bachelor's thesis yet, and my dad's already pushing me to get a PhD.

Today I learned that homework assignments can be really annoying, and that my mom can be a very scary person.

She's kind of like the mom in this video

"no more computer time tonight", now where have I heard that before? bigrazz

Is that such a bad thing? Well I guess that depends on your dream - one of my biggest dreams is to learn to fly a helicopter, not professionally but just for recreational flying. I'd call that a hobby.

Haha,
I was talking about a whole different type of dreams - specifically, the college I want to go to, or rather, the college I'm dying to go to, and where I probably won't be selected. It doesn't matter in the long run, as my chances of selection aren't that good, but it still hurts, as I'm hoping against hope anyway bigrazz
Dreams do that to you smile

Edit -
@wandererofthedeep - I get that a lot too, but I persevere, same as you apparaently do smile
I was lucky enough to find a dream, but before that I was doing the same thing. The chances are worse now, but I feel happier somehow smile

If they are anything like her, then there is not a doubt in my mind.

This is clearly a problem of your mom not knowing the definition of a hobby, then. Which means you really shouldn't care.

While I appreciate your sentiments, I'll ask to not say that. The exact word my mother used is 'Shauk', which is a Hindi word, and has a somewhat different meaning from hobby. I chose hobby as it is very close to the original meaning. She is just being cautious, as I have done similar things many times when I was younger. I can understand where she is coming from, and appreciate her helping me even when she thinks like this smile.

I just learned that some people actually think spamming quote trees are annoying instead of funny. Amazing.
