My topic to study today was
International Marketing. Well, it turns out that my mum had that in mind too.
hmm.. weird. she talked abt her frens who are going to other countries for holidays as their kids had migrated there
.(Turns out, there really quite a number of them!)
Then she started talking about her
Europe-France experience back then. How she travelled to the Paris, climbed the Eiffel Tower, watched the Leaning Pisa lean in ... hee... it was fun listening to her. made me more motivated to study hard.
But she just had to add the part where
Fiddy-Is-The-Last-Jedi (sorry, i just had to exaggerate.) . our relatives have been praising her that at least she got a daughter
(me) who is still pursuing her studies, unlike them.Well, hey, i'm not blowing my own trumpet here. But let's check back on reality;
(1)My first sister was a high school drop out.Got married early.
Highest achievement:Bore a Grandson that everyone loves.
(2)My 2nd sister was a high school drop out too. But she led the life of luxury when she was an air stewardess.
Highest achievement:Bore another great looking Grandson whom i love so much,Ryan Kamal.
(3)My 3rd sister had dreams of fines arts and the life of Paris. But after she left LaSalle, she kinda got "bent". She totally changed her perspective of life.
Highest Achievement: As to date, her biz is doing very very well and gave me a great bro-in-law to look up to.
(4)I can't help it that my aunts' kids are having a totally different mindcept than me. Maybe they prefer to just do things they want for themselves and not for their parents.
(5) The final real-reality is that,
I love my mum. I can't afford to let her down like my sisters did in school. I strive and feed on competitions in life. Or should i say, the challenges in life
(chey dee ahhh!! ) I mean, i dream of living and making life better for my mum. I don't want her to work and slog anymore. I just want her to relax. I know i don't really like to be studying still. But come to think of it, i'm glad that i listened to her and carried on. Cause i know that , everything i do for her, is beneficial for me too. Besides, my life-plan is actually to out-do my sisters. hee.... can't help it. I was brought up to be competitive.
Oh, yes, i listen to my mum most of the time. But the one time when i don't listen to her is when she start to talk about match-making me with her fren's son.ewwww.....ahahah...
Now with my upcoming
JPLT coming on, maybe i'll take her to
Japan one day. When that happens, she'll start talking about Japan,rather then her France experience, to my sisters. heee...
OK, looks like i am blowing my own trumpet.
