My eldest just became very cocky. I pity her mom (that's me!) and dad. Because now it's gonna be doubly hard to make her study.
Well, she has Chinese tuition every Friday. I overruled her dad and herself of course because I don't want to get heart palpitation every time there's an exam for her Chinese subject.
Here's what happened.
Thursday night, I told her to tell her Chinese tutor that she has an exam next week. She didn't inform her tutor. Grrrrr. And, we didn't study during the weekend. What will I teach her????
Anyway, Tuesday came, she got her result. She got 20/20 and she had the gall to call me and be smug about it. She even said "I didn't study yet I got a perfect score!" OMG!
That was not the end of it. I've been asking about her Math result because I was a bit nervous about it. Again, we didn't study. Haha. Because she was so sleepy so the exercises I made for her just became scratch papers.
I thought (yes, I did think about this) that she was hiding the result from me for fear of my *cough* anger *cough*. So, I asked the mom of one of her classmates and she told me that they have not gotten the results too. Anyways, again, I received a call around 4pm from my dear daughter. "Mom, I got 20/20 on my Math. Do you remember that I just slept and didn't study?" Huh! Ang yabang talaga! Gusto ko sana sabihin na "anak, term 1 pa lang, madali pa..." But of course, ayoko naman sirain tuwa nya at parati na lang sya nasesermonan. Yes, Kiasu mom! and dad na rin!
We're just happy with her accomplishments. I know that she's a bit (?) not happy with our nagging. But, as I always tell her, I just want to cultivate good study habits to her. I hope that when she grows older, she'd appreciate this.

I think this mom is cocky as well about her daughter's accomplishments that she has to blog about it. Huh! Hehehe...
