i was at joy's sch awaiting the 'o' level results.
suddenly, her phone call came,"mommy, i can't receive my results today cos' my hair is colored!"
haha, that's it! ahs is well-known to hv strict discipline; the kids weren't spared graciously despite the fact that the kids were just there to collect their results slip.
it was an amusing sight when i got out of the hall locating her presence, and seeing many boys and girls holding a can of black hair spray to cover up their 'hair crimes'.
she and her bestie qy were hiding somewhere too to solve the problem.
well, asked how i felt about the whole thing?
i shared faith's view that joy has a colourful school life. unlike our times, just nerdy school work and brief friendly outings. maybe, i gave her a tad too much liberty after her 'o' level to experience different things in life.
but, i have made up my mind to have a talk with her about how her hair should be restored to 'black colour' (not even dark brown, as suggested by her), the moment she steps into jc.
in the evening, the thot was communicated to her. her first response,"can i leave some strands here and there? i'm sure the teachers cannot see it!"
"no distractions, joy, when it comes to study! just rbr that you have tried it, and it's never too late to get into all these beauty trials...wait till you are out of uniform school life!"
then, she revealed that even in ahs, she was always 'battling' with the discipline master and some teachers who went round 'locating' girls with short skirts and 'slipping fringe'....悲哀哟，我这个女儿真是爱美不要命!
in any case, i wish joy and her 2 friends success in trying out for the dance audition in vjc this thur.
lastly, joy got all As and did well enough to try out for a place in vjc. hoping no mishap. GOD bless...amen.
p/s : omg, the daddy would be many hundreds poorer after joy's 'o' level release...that thrilled the girl to the core in winning the 'mean' deal against the dad, but to the daddy, it's 破财啦！
imagine the deal - A1 $100 vs A2 $10, B3 -$10, B4 -$100...see the insidious scheme behind the daddy? hooray joy, you triumped over him.....give me a five!

Whahaha, the rewards offered by KH is funny! Joy really has a wonderful teenage life, being able to try so many things but it is right to put some boundaries on her, like highlighting her hair after she starts JC. There is no hurry to do some things. She has all the freedom after she completes her studies.
