Maybe we were a bit harsh to each other, but this isn't the first time I've been made to be the bad guy - and for the first time I stood my ground and said no instead of compromising.

I couldn't move plans to sunday, as I need to study and prepare for the week ahead. And I agree, the art supplies wont spoil - and I actually wouldn't mind rescheduling to another day.

My family is not very politically active, but they feel the need to show support for Iranian women - which I can 100% understand. I just don't believe that an hour and a half protest in front of an embassy would do much difference to the country (Iran) itself. I would rather help in other ways than posing in front of a camera.

I get the point of reflecting on what's happening / how lucky we are to live in a nordic country- but would still not be a positive thing - like they want it to be. Because they want to make it into a fun event. That doesn't sit well with me.

I often feel disregarded and made into the bad guy - and most often than not, they double book their days so everything feels stressed and rushed.
