Ever since I was five, my Chinese parents had great expectations. Study, they said. But I only wanted to be a figure skater. But you'll need a profession after figure skating, they continued. Study, they pressed. Study. Study more. Study harder. And when you've finished studying, work hard. Fun? Only on Sunday. Friends? You don't have the time. Boyfriend? Katie... are you out of your mind? Don't even think about it.
