I really hate having to work under the watchful eyes of people. I don’t feel comfortable, at all, doing my tutorials or studying when others are present. That’s one reason I was against renting out the room.

For several months, I’ve been doing my assignments in the living room because I no longer have my own room. My father now sleeps in the room that was once mine. However, the living room now is also often occupied by the tenants to watch the television show. I often ended up doing my tutorial, at around 9pm, when they sleep.

This has been bothering me for as long as the tenants first moved in. Nevertheless, I couldn’t bring myself to share my thoughts with any of my family members yet as they would think I’m procrastinating anyway. I had several disagreements with my mother over the room before as well. I couldn’t believe my parents would take away my room and have not taken my needs into considerations at all. And now, they just left me with absolutely no private space in the house.

Argh. I really need some place to study and do my work. I also need some space where I know I can be left alone at times.
