O levels results part 2.

after collecting my o level results, i went home and asked my elder sister what she got for english at the o levels. it went something like that.

Me : Jie(elder sister in mandarin) what did you get for english at o levels ?

waits 7 seconds for response (i counted)

Jie : huh ?

Me : what did you get for english at o levels ?

Jie : 2, A2

Me : same as me.

(immediately she replied)

Jie : the standard dropped already.

i can feel the love she has. let me explain why that was her answer. she started reading books at kindergarden, read most of the nancy drew and sweet valley books. which amounts to more than 200. adding that she read other books too, she mentions some names which i think are made because i've never of them before. so it is safe to say from the time she started reading till the date of the o level english examinations, she read a grand total of 500+ books and got an A2 for english.

i on the other hand started reading at sec 1 and can remember exactly all the books i've read. no, it is not because i've a good memory it is because i've read 6 books total. let me tell you what are the books that i've read.
1.Hairy Peter and the Philosopher's Shit
2.Hairy Peter and the Chamber of Nonsense
3.Hairy Peter and the Pissaner of AzkaBAM
4.Hairy Peter and the Wok of Ice
5.Hairy Peter and the Scam of the Phyxion Phoenix
6.Macdonald Grump - The Science of the Scam ( Donald Trump - The Art of the Deal )

i read the 6th book after the o levels when i was very very bored and heard that it is such a good book that Sam Solovey read twice. actually he read all of donald's book twice. back to the topic now, basically, my sister was jealous unhappy that i got an A2 for eng just like her. i read a total of 5 books before o levels and she 500+ which is at least 100 times more. so i don't blame her for acting childish.

after the o level results saga, it is the choosing of courses saga for me. i started spitting out courses that i am interested in.

Me : i think i wanna go to mass com.

Jie : don't, there are a lot of backstabbing and bitching there.

Me : how about banking and fiance ?

Jie : it is a very stressful job as a banker and i don't think your suitable for it.

with my dad it is like this.

Me : Oi ! Gi Na Pi ! which course should i go to ?

Dad : ai ya, go marine engineering lah. gahment pay for your education and gives you allowance and got bonus leh. so good.
(Good For Him, if i sign on, they pay for my education, allowance of $1000 a month and additional bonus of $1200 for each semester completed. )

Me : ( Points at Dad ) I DON'T WANT TO BE AN ENGINEER LIKE YOU!

Dad laughs and walk away. if i ask my mom, this happens.

Me : Mom, what course should i go to ?

Mom : Pray and ask God.

Me : . . . . . . . . . .

if your family is giving you constructive ideas and plans for your future, please be appreciative and receptive.
