Tina Lin was not like many of her classmates．She didn’t listen to popular music．She didn’t watch many movies, and she wasn’t interested in nice clothes．
When she got together with her friends, they wanted to listen to rock and top music．When Tina asked if they would like to try classical music, they all looked at her strangely．
“Classical music is for old people,”one of her friends said．
Tina was worried that something was wrong with her．She decided to talk to her father．As she entered his study, he could sense something was wrong．
“Dad, am I strange?”she asked her father．
“Of course not,”he answered．“Why do you ask that?”
“Because I don’t like the same things as my classmates．They want to listen to Mariah Carey”s music．I like Yo Yo Ma．”
“I think I understand．Tina, it’s all right to be your own person．You don’t have to copy what other people do．Everybody has different tastes．Some of them are popular, and others aren’t．”
After Tina spoke with her father, she felt better about herself．She realized that being different made her special．It was an important lesson for her to learn．
