    Yes? Oh jeez, I can already predict what we are going to talk about. Sigh. It can only be out of a few main choices. It probably is about becoming a doctor in the future, it is his favourite topic. Every. Single. Time. Every single time he wants to drive me to school, “So you will be a doctor in the future right?” Ugh. It makes me feel sick sometimes.
