My mom and dad had their own ideas about what I should do when I grow.
I knew exactly what I wanted to do, even though I would not tell them until after I signed up for the classes.
In the meantime, my mother was bombarding me with suggestions. Her first thought was that I should be a lawyer. Once she settled on that being a career for me, there was no stopping her. I was getting literature in the mail, and it all pertained to colleges that were local and had a wonderful law program. My father was trying to convince me to join the family business. I didn’t want to toil in a restaurant. Dad’s restaurant sold the best hand made Greek food in the state, even though I didn’t want to toil there. I just wanted to eat there. I didn’t appreciate toiling there when I was in school. I wanted to be an Heating as well as A/C specialist. I had been saving my currency, so mom and dad didn’t need to contribute. Honestly, I didn’t guess mom would provide me currency for Heating as well as A/C school; She was so focused on me being a lawyer that I was sure she would be angry when I told her my plans. She would legitimately walk away if she saw me studying at home, if it wasn’t for law. My bestie told me both of us could get our own apartment, and then no one could complain about me becoming an Heating as well as A/C specialist. I just wasn’t ready for that kind of commitment. I told her I’d guess about it when I got out of Heating as well as A/C school.
