... for the most part, I grew up with my mom, sister, and 2 maids. My dad was always away because he's a commander of a brigade. Having a soldier of a mom (msg) never helped because it made me a bit docile. Now I'm 20 and my dad having spent his 2 years leave (he never used his vacation leave till it piled to 2 years) with me and my family i sort of resented his presence because he was harder than my mother and I never really coped up with that. And the fact that he's a male ordering me around. I guess, I'm a bit different. I'm trying hard to fit the image of a son that he wants but at the age of 18 I couldn't somehow.
So we tolerate each other. He thinks I'm weak but having a red belt in taekwondo for a mere 1 month after joining a dojo should have proved him otherwise but I think he meant weak when I cry when watching emotional movies like "tears of the sun" and movies prone to disaster and regret. Lolz
