I Am Worried

So I took that free online class for web design and I hated it. I only took it because my dad pressured me to. Now I'm scared either today or tomorrow, he'll ask me if I checked it out and I'll have to tell him I didn't like it. He'll give me this big lecture about how I'm not giving it a chance, how I'm so good at computers and that I will never make money at this rate considering my field is in film/theater and I don't live in an area where those opportunities exist. I know it'll be a big fight because it's never a discussion with him. And my mom will side with him just so they don't end up in a fight as well. If I told him I was spending my time freelance writing, it would be followed by another lecture about how I won't make a living that way. I'm not doing it to make a living but I want to at least try to send something in to a magazine or writing contest to make some money. It would be good for a resume. I just wish I had more understanding parents that were looking out for [i]my[/i] interests instead of theirs. To let me become my own person.
