i realised something y'day - my tuition kid is awfully cute. damn awful but damn cute.

"teacher teacher! y u over 20 alr'd never go n find a boyfriend?"

"teacher teacher! do u want kids in the future?"

"teacher teacher! cannot! u MUST have kids in the future! or else u'll DIE"

AND SO, i had to open her mind a li'l to the many alternative possibilities in this real real world. i hope i dint spoil her textbook fairytale happily ever afters.

i know i used to complain to someone that she's SLOW. she's slow really. and stubborn. stubbornly clinging on to her slow ways. i mean, u know i'm not exactly the most patient person ar'd. BUT she's simply adorable. long and lithe. chio and erm, more chio. convent girls. argh. she's 10. another few yrs and she's a definite heartbreaker. and we realised that we've common interests in pop-up stickers and swimming and competitions too.

"teacher teacher.. do u know that i get very sad when i go for competitions.. and my parents aren't there?"

damn. she is making me wanting to swim again. resist zhuangz resist!

there was this time i went and her sister (she's 4) rushed out of the kitchen "teacher is here!" and gave me a hug... awww... they're the sweetest family i've ever met man. i can see why she thinks teacher teacher MUST have kids in future.

slow. stubborn. stickers. swimming. a lot like me actually. only things are that i'm neither sweet nor skinny. ha ha ha

but kids can be mean too. she always laugh at her brother (he's 9) for being too fat. (he's just a LITTLE BIT plump. the two sisters are too skinny anyways. relativity. just like how my sisters are skinny. so i'm the fat one!) there was once he had this big black eye and u noe y? coz she kicked him underwater. and the black eye became so ugly we thot it's gonna dry up and pop out.

but u can tell that, despite the embarrassing childhood in the hands of his chio-but-sometimes-mean sister, in a few more yrs time, he's gonna grow up, hopefully lose all his baby fats, and become another major heartbreaker.

but teacher teacher thinks we shud still think abt the alternative possibilities.

anyways. i dunno y i digged that example out. becoz the real moral of the story is not abt that. it's more abt how i really dint wanna accept this tuition job at first coz she's my mom's fren's kid and u noe u cant charge much for ur mom's frens' kids. and she did warn me that the girl's SLOW. and STUBBORN. too much like me. but i'm liking this more n more. a gradual one. and i learn a lot from this "job" too. the reward's in something else. not the monetary kind.

so i think that someone is trying to teach me s'thing. maybe, just maybe.
