tradition sometimes make me unhappy

Yesterday I had to work in a tea ceremony party held at my grandmother's house.
We have these parties several times every year because my family is a descendant of Sen-no-Rikyu and is a close relative of the current "Iemoto" of the Sen family.
I like how many guests visit our house and serving them tea in a beautiful kimono, but what made me unhappy is that I really wanted to work on my book report yesterday.

One more thing making me unhappy is how my mom and my grandmother keep on telling me I have to study tea ceremony more. I know it's a nice thing to have knowledge about and I know I shouldn't stop the tradition, but I still cannot have enough interests in it for starting taking lessons.
If I have time to take tea lessons, I want to use it for doing part-time job or taking skating lessons...
