near adulthood??...i don't think so

my parents(especially my mom!) love saying this to me and my sisters..
" ...you know, when we were young, we never get the opportunity to further our studies...ha...not like you youngsters today, we have to sent u to higher institutions and must be your choice..."
OMG!!!!::rolled eyes::
tht's my reaction...every single time she start this conversation of which who's luckier than who...
yes, i admit we grew up in a more civilised and modern and comfortable surroundings... however, still there's unfortunate people in this era of globalisation...
on the other hand, i still feel very envious with the lifestyle young children live in...when i said young children it means toddlers and primary kids...highschool kids too...
fyi, i'm no longer in that category...just so you know!hah!
i'm officially 19...a young lady..

i'm currently a tutor of a 7 year old boy. i took this job reluctantly cuz i know i'm not a good tutor ...i'm kinda impatient especially towards kids...don't get me wrong..it's not like i dislike them...i love kids!
i love playing and babysitting them...btw, i babysit toddlers when i was young too...i'm experienced..hehheh ;-P
you see, i've been taken care by a nanny since i was a baby till i'm in secondary...after my mom retired, i no longer go there...but still i'm very very close to her family....they are like my second familiy...seriously, i'm closer to them than to my cousins and aunts and uncles...
so whenever my nanny is busy coooking, my sisters and i would take turn babysitting her grandsons...anyway, we do it because we adore them...
tutoring this kid really takes a lot of energy...trust me, if my hair turns grey probably it's because of this lil fellow...
i will "tor hui"(vomit blood...direct translation) every saturday because of him... he's really getting on my nerves... in the beginning he wasn't exactly this stubborn...but recently he's being more more rebellious..he is the best in not paying attention in class, telling lies, day-dreaming, etc....
i feel like quiting every single week...i feel so frustated and i'm a failure... i can't believe that i can't handle this kid when i'm practically good in handling my studies...

i'm just trying to let off my anger and frustration in a better way...i don't curse whenever i'm angry at something or someone...
"curse all you want...in the end you are the one who's going to face god.." says jane...
i love this phrase...so typical jane jane...
talking bout her...she left m'sia last wednesday...missing her already...::sobsob:: =(
have to wait another year to see her again....haihzzz
